Most reductions use a Wise pattern skin incision (anchor scar). The nipple stays attached to preserve sensation and the ability to breast feed in younger patients.

Separated abdominal muscles are repaired and surrounding liposuction performed for recontouring. Most commonly performed after pregnancy or weight loss. A mons lift may be part of the procedure.
