Ghana Breast Reduction - The Procedure
Women with very large breasts may suffer from pack pain, skin infections under the breast folds and breathing difficulties. During the operation extra fat, skin and breast tissue are removed and the surgeon designs a smaller breasts according to woman's proportions.
There are two ways to perform breast reduction: one with longer scar or an "anchor" scar, which is the procedure of choice in a case of very large breasts. The surgeon cuts through the nipple down and behind the breast folds. Afterward the surgeon lifts the nipple upward and shapes the breast. The second one is with a smaller scar, which is suitable for a medium size breasts. The cut is made only through the nipple and through the fold. Sometime the extra skin is not fully removed which leaves some skin folds beneath the breasts. Those usually disappear after 3-5 month (in case they persist afterward you might need an additional surgery to remove them).

Ghana Breast Reduction - Risks
Every surgery has its risks; the one you're about to have has a risk of wound infections or healing difficulties of the scars. It might be an asymmetry in the position of the nipple and in some cases you won't be able to nurse.

Ghana Breast Reduction - After Surgery
After the surgery some of the surgeon will prefer an elastic bandage or a bra and some will leave a drainage tubes to draine extra blood or secretions. You might feel pain with sharp moves or coughing, you'll receive painkillers to relieve the pain. The bandages will be removed a 1-2 days after the operation, and it is recommended to wear a sports bra for another 4-6 weeks until the area heals completely. During your first period after the surgery you might feel pain more then usual, you might also fell tingle or currents for a few month or even a year.

You'll be able to return to you're daily activities in a few days although you should restrain from strenuous activities for about a month. It is recommended not to smoke because smoking interferes with healing processes of your scars. You also should avoid sexual activities for 1-2 weeks.

The scars and bruises usually disappear after a few weeks and the final results can be seen 6 month after the surgery.

  • Abstract  Tip surgery, the most important part of the rhinoplasty procedure, has entered a new era in the past few decades. Various treatment protocols have been attempted. To date, however, opinions on the management of the Asian tip have not been solidified. To generalize and provide appropriate guidelines for the treatment of typical Asian tips, an English literature search from 1977 to March 2007 was conducted. Finally, a total of 26 papers were selected for review. The full text of each paper was read carefully, and data were extracted. Then all extracted information was imported into Microsoft Excel. Nine articles treating 11 groups of patients described the suitable techniques for Asian nasal tips, with 81.8% of the groups advocating that the protocol include a grafting technique, 64% reporting use of the grafting technique alone, and 9% applying cartilage reduction and a suturing technique. Of the 11 (18%) groups, 2 attempted more than one technique. Because of the Asian nasal tip’s innate qualities, success with nasal tip plasty for Asians depends on the combined application of appropriate suturing, grafting, and defatting, with grafting techniques contributing the most.

  • Objective  To characterize the epidemiology and genetics of vitiligo and associated autoimmune diseases in a population isolate in Romania in which there is a high frequency of these diseases.

    Design  Prospective and retrospective ascertainment of all patients and extended families with these disorders in the study community.

    Setting  A geographically isolated community in the mountains of northern Romania.

    Patients  Fifty-one affected individuals and their close relatives from 35 nuclear families in an extended kindred that effectively constitutes the entire community population.

    Main Outcome Measures  Demographic, phenotypic, and genetic aspects of vitiligo and other autoimmune diseases in the extended kindred.

    Results  The frequencies of vitiligo and several other autoimmune diseases, including autoimmune thyroid disease, adult-onset autoimmune diabetes mellitus, and rheumatoid arthritis, are greatly elevated. The age of vitiligo onset in this village is relatively delayed, suggesting that the causes of vitiligo in this community may be somewhat atypical. Genetic segregation analysis is most consistent with a single major locus recessive model, although incomplete penetrance and heritability suggest that other genes and nongenetic factors likely influence occurrence of disease in homozygotes.

    Conclusions  The high frequency of vitiligo and other autoimmune diseases in this isolated inbred community and an unusual aspect of the vitiligo phenotype suggest that susceptibility to these disorders in this "special population" may be unusual, likely involving a major recessive gene. Whereas disease susceptibility seems to involve a major genetic component, actual onset of vitiligo in genetically susceptible individuals seems to require exposure to environmental triggers.
