Today, 36-year-old mother Xiao Wu will be in Hangzhou Plastic Surgery Hospital for breast reduction surgery, the E cup shrinkage to B cup. Yesterday afternoon, Hangzhou Plastic Surgery Hospital for her case specifically convened including anesthesia, plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery experts from a number of departments to consult to develop a surgical plan. The hospital’s vice president and director of surgery, Dr. Yao Jianmin, said that their hospital has also implemented more than 100 cases of breast reduction surgery, most of them are patients with gigantism, and Xiao Wu is his 33 years of medical breast largest a patient, the chest is seriously sagging, like two cloth bags hanging to the navel. Some women worry about flat breasts, and oversized breasts can be a great pain. Wu said that because her breasts are too big, after having two children, her breasts sag severely, her chest looks like two heavy bags hanging on her belly, and she has a hard time walking, her back is sore, and she gets eczema easily in summer. In addition, due to the large blood flow required by the breast tissue, the blood supply to the brain is reduced and dizziness occurs from time to time. Dr. Yao Jianmin, chief physician, said that gigantism, also known as breast hypertrophy, large breasts or giant breasts, refers to the excessive development of female breasts, containing excessive proliferation of glands and fatty connective tissues, the volume is abnormal, and the body is obviously out of proportion. Patients with gigantomastia are not uncommon, but relatively fewer Asians have the disease than Westerners. During yesterday’s consultation, doctors analyzed the cause of Xiao Wu’s condition, and in addition to genetic factors, her failure to breastfeed after childbirth may have contributed to her severely sagging breasts. Dr. Yao said that theoretically, women’s breasts will sag as they age, whether they breastfeed or not. The hormones, fat and breast tissue in a woman’s breasts increase after pregnancy, resulting in significantly larger breasts. However, after a woman gives birth, the amount of hormones in her body decreases, fat and breast tissue both decrease rapidly, and the epidermis of the already enlarged breasts sags somewhat. However, breastfeeding allows for adequate progesterone production, which protects and repairs the mammary glands and allows them to develop fully, which in turn is more beneficial for breast health. How can women reduce the degree of breast laxity and sagging after giving birth? Dr. Yao suggests that in addition to breastfeeding the child, giving the breasts proper support is important to maintain the shape of the breasts. During pregnancy, mothers-to-be should choose the right size corset as their breasts grow to avoid breast sagging. After giving birth, she should also switch to a smaller size corset as her breasts shrink. Don’t buy bras with plastic edges or wire support for aesthetic reasons. Keeping the blood circulation in the breasts smooth is good for promoting milk secretion and improving the resistance of the breasts to diseases.
