Question:

Who is a candidate for breast reduction using the lollipop incision?

Answer:

The lollipop incision can be applied to any breast reduction. It is a technique that allows us to perform the surgery while minimizing the scars. Sometimes there could be a small horizontal incision in the crease under the breasts but this incision will not be very visible at all.
