Surgery

APEX Breast Reduction surgical method

How is APEX breast reduction performed?

Periareolar incision technique

The areolar incision method cuts only around the areola of the nipple, like taking the contents out of a pouch and
It works on the same principle as cinching the opening closed again.
Scarring stays confined to around the areola, the method that leaves the least scarring, and
It preserves the natural shape and function of the breast, with little bleeding and quick recovery.

Vertical incision technique

A method between the areolar incision and the O-shaped incision, leaving less scarring than the O-shaped incision and
It can be performed even for moderate or greater breast reduction, but right after surgery the shape
Outcomes can differ widely, making this a highly demanding procedure that is hard to judge without a specialist's skill and experience.

O-shaped incision (omega incision)

Suitable when both breast enlargement and sagging are severe, this method includes an areolar incision and
It is a surgical method using an incision that curves downward in an O shape.
It offers a good shape right after surgery and relatively even results, but has the drawback of the largest scar area.
