Depending on the ratio / disproportion between the breasts, the operation is performed on both breasts or focused on one breast. After determining the technique to be used in the operation, how much the breast will be reduced and how it will be shaped, the operation is performed under general anesthesia in the operating room. The doctor removes excess tissue from the incisions, shapes the breast and ends the operation by stitching the incision.
