In this image, it is possible to observe the excess breast volume and the sharp drop in tissue. This condition often results in chronic physical discomfort, such as back and shoulder pain, as well as limitations in physical activity. The objective here was to plan a substantial reduction to restore harmony to the trunk.
Registration of the patient in the initial phase of recovery. Note the new projection of the breast, with the tissue elevated and the volume significantly reduced. The contour is firmer and anatomically positioned, relieving weight and improving the silhouette. Technical observation: The image shows the patient still wearing bandages and a surgical drain, common elements in the first days to ensure safety and fluid drainage during the healing period.
In this profile image, you can see a very pronounced breast volume that goes beyond the abdominal line, characterizing gigantomastia. This condition is usually accompanied by severe complaints of chronic pain in the cervical and lumbar region, in addition to dermatitis (skin irritation) in the inframammary fold due to weight and constant friction. The surgical goal was to remove a large amount of tissue to provide immediate physical relief.
Result in the initial stage of healing. The drastic change in the silhouette and the removal of the weight that burdened the spine is visible. The breast was completely remodeled and elevated, providing a lighter and more proportional contour to the body. Technical observation: The reddish line at the base of the breast (inverted "T" scar) is characteristic of this initial phase. With time and post-operative care, this color tends to lighten and the scar becomes increasingly discreet and thin.

The big difference is the absence of a vertical scar. While the traditional technique leaves the famous "inverted T", Passot Revisited allows the final scar to be strategically hidden only in the horizontal crease (the fold below the breast), providing a much cleaner and more discreet contour.
To guarantee safety and aesthetic results, a mechanism called "Buttonhole" is used. This method allows you to remove excess tissue and fat while repositioning the areola precisely, maintaining vascularity and harmony with the new shape of the breast.
In addition to aesthetic gains, breast reduction solves functional problems caused by excess weight (hypertrophy). Patients often report the end of chronic back, shoulder and neck pain, as well as greater freedom to practice physical activities and ease in choosing clothes that previously did not fit properly.
The technique is recommended for women who have breast hypertrophy or asymmetries and who seek a sophisticated and lasting result. It is ideal for those who want lighter, firmer and more proportional breasts, but prioritize a post-operative period with as few visible marks as possible.
