Breast reduction surgery for macromastia may cause certain risks. Since such procedures generally require surgical intervention, the operation may damage the mammary gland tissue, potentially leading to complications such as altered sensation due to nerve changes, resulting in impaired feeling in the nipple and areola, as well as loss of lactation function.
