Dr. Li Qiang
The risks of breast reduction surgery include possible hematoma and infection in the local skin area. It may also reduce sensitivity in the nipples and areolas, and some patients may develop scars on their chest. After undergoing breast reduction surgery, patients should pay attention to proper chest care, avoid putting pressure on the chest, and maintain dryness and hygiene of the local skin.
