Patient #
38 year old patient 8 weeks post breast reduction with axilla liposuction and pitanguay excision.
Patient was previously a 38H cup. She is now excited to go get sized and is expected to be around a C/D cup. We removed 1,149 grams of breast tissue from her right breast, and 1,122 grams of breast tissue from her left breast. A total of about 5lbs of breast tissue removed! Patient is thrilled with her results and said it is the best thing she has ever done for herself and that it was so worth it.
(her pictures are very good with education on the Pitanguay excision with axilla liposuction, removing excess fat, tissue, and skin on the lateral breasts to reduce the appearance of “bra fat” or bulging from the skin and smoothing the sides of her breasts as well as the back. You can see in her pictures on the side and back how it helped that bulging.) We do a TON of pitnaguay excision and axilla liposuction.
The “Pitanguy excision” or Pitanguy technique is a technique created by Dr. Ivo Pitanguy, a pioneering Brazilian plastic surgeon for reshaping the breast, often used to tighten the lateral breasts and “bra fat” area. It involves removing excess tissue from the sides of the breasts, To create a smoother appearance to reduce bra fat on the lateral breasts and back. often with a scar extending from the inframammary fold (the crease under the breast) to the armpit (axilla). With time and proper care for your scars they will continue to lighten and mature over the course of a year to a year and a half.
