This procedure is designed to correct large breasts that cause functional issues in women, such as chronic back pain and limitations in exercising.<\/p>\n

The technique depends on the physical examination, but in most cases, an inverted T correction is required, where between 500 and 1500 grams per breast can be removed, as a normal breast weighs between 300 and 500 grams.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
