Standard hospital procedure requires that your surgeon perform laboratory investigations and/or diagnostic examinations to ensure that you are fit for surgery, prior to hospital admission and surgery.

Before surgery, your doctor will give you guidelines to follow to ensure that your cosmetic surgery experience is successful.

In the traditional breast reduction surgery technique, incisions are made horizontally under the breast in the crease and extend vertically up to and around the nipple, creating an anchor pattern.

.Circular incisions are made around each nipple, at which point, large areolas can be decreased,
A vertical incision is made from the bottom of the areola to the fold underneath the breast. A semicircular incision is then made in the fold around the underside of the breast.
There are other technique such as beneill technic which involves two circular incisions around the areola, one larger than the other. Skin and breast tissue are then removed between the two.
Depending on the size and shape of your breasts, the amount of skin and tissue to be removed, quality of skin and positioning of the nipples, your doctor will recommend one of these methods;
