The procedure involves making an incision in the breast from which excess fat and tissue can be removed. If the removal of fat leaves behind loose skin, this too can be trimmed away before closing the wounds. Incisions will be made in the most suitable place, depending on your concerns, and in some cases liposuction can be used to help remove deposits of fat.
