Breast Augmentation in Turkey
Smaller, lighter and lifted breasts for relief from pain and heaviness, in a JCI-accredited hospital in Adana.
Breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) removes excess breast tissue, fat and skin to make the breasts smaller, lighter and better shaped. The nipple and areola are moved to a higher position, and large areolas can be made smaller, so a reduction also lifts the breasts.
For most people, breast reduction is about more than appearance. Heavy breasts can cause constant pain and limit everyday life.
Breast reduction may suit you if you have:
It’s important that you’re in good general health, your weight has been stable for some time, and you don’t smoke or are willing to stop.
Breast reduction may not be suitable, or may need to wait, if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have poorly controlled diabetes, serious heart or lung disease, a bleeding disorder or an active infection. Your surgeon reviews your medical history before anything is booked.
Scars are covered by a bra or bikini top. They are red at first and fade and soften over 12 to 18 months, but they don’t disappear completely. Your surgeon will look at your photos and tell you honestly which technique and scar to expect.
| Technique | Best for | Scar |
|---|---|---|
| Vertical (“lollipop”) | Moderate reduction | Around the areola and straight down to the breast fold |
| Anchor (inverted T) | Larger reduction or very heavy, low breasts | Around the areola, down to the fold and along the fold under the breast |
If you have extra fullness at the sides of the chest or towards the armpit, liposuction can be used in the same operation to shape this area.
Your surgery is performed by a specialist in Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery. You can find your surgeon’s profile, qualifications and experience on the Our Doctors page.
You’ll speak with your surgeon in your online consultation, before anything is booked.
Combining procedures makes surgery longer and recovery harder. Your surgeon will recommend what is safe to do in one operation.
If your breast reduction is combined with a tummy tuck or another larger operation, you’ll need to stay longer, usually around 10 days.
A long operation followed by a long flight increases the risk of blood clots. That’s why:
Not included: flights, travel insurance, personal expenses, and a mammogram or ultrasound if you need one before surgery.
Your surgeon will go through your personal risks with you before you decide.
The tissue that is removed doesn’t grow back. Your breasts will still change with age, pregnancy, breastfeeding and weight changes, so a stable weight helps you keep your result.
Will breast reduction help my back pain?
Many people find their neck, back and shoulder pain improves after surgery. Your surgeon will assess whether your pain is likely to be linked to the weight of your breasts.
What size will I be after surgery?
Your surgeon will plan a size in proportion to your body and discuss it with you. Cup sizes vary between brands, so an exact cup size can’t be promised.
Will the scars be visible?
The scars are covered by a bra or bikini top. They fade over 12 to 18 months but don’t disappear completely.
How long do I need to stay in Turkey?
About 7 days for a breast reduction alone, and around 10 days if it’s combined with a larger operation.
When can I go back to work and exercise?
Most people with desk jobs return after about two weeks. Exercise and swimming usually wait until around six weeks.
Can I breastfeed after breast reduction?
Many women can, but it can’t be guaranteed. Tell your surgeon if you’re planning more children.
Can someone come with me?
Yes, and we recommend it. Your companion can stay with you at the hotel.
