Decrease Size and Lift Your Breasts Without a Vertical Scar
If you are experiencing chronic pain, have trouble finding clothing that properly fits, experience unwanted attention, and suffer from low self-esteem due to overly large breasts, then consider a breast reduction.
Breast reduction is an effective solution that can help alleviate the health issues resulting from large breasts. But knowing the extensive scarring that can result, you may not want to have the surgery. That's why we offer the Bellesoma Method of breast reduction.
Why Bellesoma breast reduction is different
You may benefit from a breast reduction but have concerns regarding vertical scarring or unsatisfactory post-operation shape. We offer an advanced method of breast reduction known as the Bellesoma Method. The Bellesoma Method reduces scarring and gives your breasts a pleasing, perkier shape that will last longer.
- You won't have any vertical scar at all.
- Your breasts will be reduced in size and they'll be supported better by the chest wall, providing immediate relief of back, neck and shoulder pain.
- Your breasts will be lifted and reshaped for a perkier appearance.
- Your results will last longer.
- Your ability to breastfeed won't be jeopardized.
For beautiful and longer lasting results
You won't have any vertical scar
Traditional breast reduction surgery always has an anchor shaped incision. The incision is made around the areola and straight down to the breast fold, where another incision is made in the breast crease. When the incisions turn into scars, the one made around the areolar and horizontally in the breast fold remain hidden. Unfortunately, the scar that connects the areola to the breast fold is not. That's why many, many women think twice before getting a breast reduction.
The Bellesoma Method of breast reduction technique eliminates the vertical incision entirely, which means you won't have any vertical scar either.
Your breasts will have a perkier, rounder shape
The main goal of traditional breast reduction is to reduce the size of the breasts. Often, there is no concern for how the breasts look after surgery. As long as the breasts are smaller, the job is considered "done".
Dr. Kara takes great care in not just reducing the size of your breasts, but also reshaping them to give them a perkier look and rounder look. He does this with the unique technique of the Bellesoma Method, which involves using your own breast tissue to give you fullness in the lower and upper parts. This also improves the projection of your breasts, so they're not so flattened against your body (a good thing to give you improved cleavage!).
More support and longer lasting results
In a traditional breast reduction, there's no concern for creating support for the breast tissue that remains.
We know that every woman experiences some degree of sagging with aging, no matter how small or big their breasts are. Even if you get a traditional breast reduction, that doesn't mean you won't be resistant against sagging. The Bellesoma Method is different. In this breast reduction, Dr. Kara attaches breast tissue to the muscle wall, giving you internal support for your breasts. This means that your breasts will be better supported, instantly alleviating neck, shoulder and back pain, as well as resist the effects of aging and gravity for a much longer time.
Scar treatments
You'll have far less scars than those resulting from a traditional breast reduction, but we still want to help you make your scars less visible.
With your breast reduction, we offer advanced scar treatments. You can start your scar treatment regimen with our advanced CO2 laser shortly after surgery. After each session, you'll notice the appearance and irregular texture of your scars gradually decrease.

Surgery steps
Preparation
- Maintain healthy lifestyle habits. Avoid smoking for 4 weeks before surgery. If you smoke within that timeframe, your surgery will be rescheduled.
- Wear comfortable clothing on the day of your surgery, like a loose fitting top and bottoms with an elasticized waist.
- You may need to avoid food and drink on the night before your surgery.
Surgery
Medications will be administered to make you as comfortable as possible during your surgery. General anesthesia will be administered.
Enlarged breasts tend to be heavy and sag.
A specific amount of fat and breast tissue is removed. New breast mounds are created and repositioned higher up on the chest for a pleasing contour.
The breast mounds are attached to your chest muscle. This is done to transfer the weight of each breast to the muscle, rather than the shoulders, neck and back.
Sutures are placed around the areola and in the breast crease.
You'll see an immediate improvement, although swelling will hide your results.
Recovery period
- Generally, it takes 1 – 2 weeks to recover. If you tend to heal faster, then you may just need a week.
- Wear your support bra as advised.
- Don't wear a bra with underwire until Dr. Kara says it's okay. This is to avoid irritating the inframammary incision lines.
- Numbness will go away in a few months.
