Milk iron consists of fatty and iron fabric. The ratio of these types of tissue affects the volume of the breast during pregnancy and lactation and its involution (return to its original condition) at the end of feeding. The genetic factors play a considerable role.

The effects of breastfeeding can be divided into three types.
1. Milk iron increases in the amount of moderately, and its complete involution with the reduction of the skin occurs. From a cosmetic point of view, this is a favorable outcome. The chest becomes a dery, "empty", but there are no significant excess skin. In this case, you can perform endoprosthetics: adjust the shape and volume of the breast using implants without resorting to the suspension of the mammary glands.
2. After the completion of the lactation, significant excess skin remains in the chest area and the involution does not occur. Such consequences are most often found. There is a significant ptosis of dairy glasses, the chest looks like "empty" and sagging. It delivers aesthetic and often physical discomfort. In this case, a reconstructive operation is performed with the transfer of a nipple-areolar complex - Mastopeksia (milk helmet lift). This operation, in the event of an insufficient volume of own tissue, can be combined with the increase in breast implants. As a result, an attractive zone of neckline is formed: the nipple with the isola is transferred to a higher position, the chest visually lifts and acquires a beautiful round shape.
Before and after
3. In some cases, due to hormonal changes in the body of a woman during pregnancy and lactation, the dairy glands are excessively increasing in the amount and after the end of feeding is practically not reduced. The chest can reach 8-9 sizes and cause strong physical discomfort: there is an excessive load on the spine and a shoulder belt, which leads to deformation and pain syndrome. In this case, reduction mammoplasty is carried out on therapeutic purposes.
There are various options for the operation. The techniques that I use in my practice allow you to get a raised chest with a beautiful neckline area in the overwhelming majority. Sensitivity of the nipple and feeding function are saved. As a result of the operation, the breast is significantly reduced in size, and the load on the spine and the shoulder belt is reduced. It becomes much easier to lead an active lifestyle and play sports. A woman feels more confident and stops shy his body.
