Breast Reduction

JK Breast Reduction is a procedure for those experiencing shoulder and neck pain, Skin Conditions beneath the breasts, Chronic Fatigue, or psychological stress due to large breasts. Rather than simply reducing size, it creates firm breasts of an appropriate size for the patient’s body shape. Depending on the amount of reduction and concern about scarring, the appropriate method is selected from Periareolar incision, inverted-T incision, or Vertical Incision.

Recommended for These Individuals

Those with skin conditions beneath the breasts or back pain

Those experiencing severe psychological stress due to large breasts

Those whose breasts differ in size by one cup or more

Those with enlarged breasts due to excessive hormone secretion or obesity

Features of JK Breast Reduction

Point 1. Accurate Assessment

Through preoperative examinations, we discuss your current breast shape, concerns, and surgical method together without time limitations.

Point 2. Meticulous Design

Because more detailed planning is required, the design is reviewed once more before surgery.

Point 3. Surgery by Experienced Specialists

A board-certified plastic surgeon experienced in breast and body contouring procedures performs the surgery, while a board-certified anesthesiologist provides one-on-one dedicated care.

Point 4. Less Pain, Faster Recovery

Minimal incisions reduce recovery time and pain, while ongoing postoperative monitoring and swelling-reduction laser treatment support faster recovery.

Surgical Methods

Periareolar Incision Method

· Advantages: Leaves almost no scar and prevents damage to Mammary tissue, resulting in little to no decrease in nipple sensation. · Disadvantages: Cannot achieve a large reduction and may appear slightly flat. · Recommended for: Those requiring a small reduction

Inverted-T Incision Method

· Advantages: Allows the greatest reduction volume, enables adjustment of areolar size, and is the most widely used method worldwide. · Disadvantages: The longer incision may leave scars and reduce nipple sensation. · Recommended for: Those seeking a substantial reduction

Vertical Incision Method

· Advantages: Allows sufficient removal of Mammary tissue and leaves less scarring than the inverted-T incision. · Disadvantages: May result in more scarring than the Periareolar incision method. · Recommended for: Those seeking a substantial reduction while minimizing scars
