Breast Reduction

The breast, symbol of femininity, helps to make every woman’s body beautiful. Not always a very large breast is a symptom of beauty, its size must be proportionate with the rest of the body and ensure balance with and among other forms. A woman may feel uncomfortable in an inharmonious body, feel observed but not appreciated. Moreover, a large breast can cause back and neck pain, also it can make it difficult to perform particular physical activities.

Luckily, there is a solution to all this: reduction mastoplasty. It is a surgical operation aimed to reduce volume and weight of the breast, giving it a more natural and comfortable size. In this way, every woman can appreciate her body back, see balance and harmony in its forms, like herself and perform sport activities with much freedom.

It starts with the first visit which is the most important phase. Firstly I make sure my patient is in good health. Based on the peculiarities of her breasts, I identify the most appropriate solution for the most natural and aesthetically perfect result possible. In some cases, I can also use liposuction to reduce the size of the breast in particular on the lateral sides of the breasts

The operation takes place under general anesthesia and it takes about three hours. Upon awakening, I prescribe a painkiller to sedate the pain. I apply a compression bandage which I replace with a lighter one after 48 hours and after dressing the wounds. For about two months I recommend using, 24 hours a day, a sports bra to give support to the breast without generating strong pressure. Also in this case recovery is very important. In the following days after surgery, you should avoid work andfor about six weeks, excessive physical exertion.

And the result of all this? A balanced breast in proportion to the rest of the body. In this way every woman can feel more confident and have the pleasure of showing the beauty and harmony of her forms.

FAQ

Doubts or questions? It’s only natural to have any! Below I try to answer the most frequent ones. For further clarification you can write to me at any time, I will answer as soon as possible.

Yes, since it is general anaesthesia, you should not eat or drink for about six hours before the operation.
Yes. In order to promote rapid recovery and reduce the risk of infection, smokers should refrain from smoking, starting at least two weeks before the operation.
It is not recommended, but there is a possibility that it is necessary to stop taking them.
There are three breast reduction techniques: traditional, with vertical incision and without scars. Traditional: I make two different incisions: one around the nipple and the other round the breast before removing excess fat and skin. once both incisions are made I place the breast, nipple and areola in a higher position, stretch the skin around the breast and sew the incisions. With vertical incision: it is a less invasive incision, but not suitable for women who has extremely large breasts. The incision is made around the areola, in a vertical way along the breast surface, downwards. Without scarring: I use liposuction to reduce breast size. After making small incisions under the armpit in the fold of the breast or in the upper external part, I drain the excess fat and close the incisions.

The first appointment

It is the basis of my aesthetic renewal process, in which I like to establish a direct relationship with my patient.

The surgery

I operate with my patient's wishes and achievable results in mind to ensure an excellent result and a swift post-operative course.

After the surgery

I will see every patient personally in their follow ups, monitoring the patient until his complete recovery. Every one of my patient will have contact with 24 hrs for any advice and I give a life time care.

I first heard about Dr M through a friend who had her breasts done by him around 8 years ago and ever since then I always knew that when the time was right he would be the surgeon I would go to. I had always admired his work, especially how natural his results look, so choosing him was never really a question for me. From my very first consultation with Dr M, I knew I had made the right decision. He was so kind, welcoming and patient and he genuinely listened to everything I had hoped for from my breast augmentation (and believe me, I had a lot to ramble on about!). He understood exactly what I was looking for and immediately put my mind at ease. I never once felt rushed or pressured into making a decision. He made it very clear that I could come back for as many consultations as I needed between my first appointment and surgery, which made such a difference to my confidence and helped me feel completely comfortable with my decision. A few weeks before my surgery, Dr M even called me himself just to check in, see how I was feeling and go over a few things with me. It was little things like that which really showed me how much he genuinely cared about his patients. And then there’s Winta, Dr M’s PA. That woman is an absolute godsend and truly one very special lady! I honestly don’t know how I would have got through the whole process without her. She is so warm, kind and gentle and has been there for me throughout the entire journey. She has always been available to answer my questions, calm my worries and reassure me whenever I needed it and I can assure you, there were A LOT of questions and worries 😂 After surgery, I was quite anxious about some of the things I was experiencing, but Winta was always just a message away. She was so reassuring and made sure I understood what was normal, while also checking that I was recovering well and that everything was okay. She really went above and beyond and made what could have been a very overwhelming process feel so much easier. I genuinely cannot thank Dr M, Winta and the whole team enough. I am absolutely in love with my results and for the first time in my life I can look at my chest and feel feminine, confident and happy with what I see. That feeling means more to me than I can put into words. If you’re considering a breast augmentation and wondering which surgeon to choose, I honestly cannot recommend Dr M and his team enough. His work speaks for itself, but it’s the care, reassurance and personal experience throughout the whole process that really makes them stand out. Thank you so much, Dr M and Winta, for everything. I couldn’t be happier with my results and I’m so grateful I chose you both. ❤️

Dr Marcellino - Where to Start It’s took me a few months to write this review as quite simply I couldn’t put into words just what a master he is. Not just a Surgeon, a sculptor that knows what you need. I had an upper Bleth in May, from consultation to post procedure he was outstanding. I love my results. A miracle worker who has given me back my confidence. Forever grateful.

Mio figlio ha avuto bisogno di un intervento di ginecomastia e, tra tutte le opzioni disponibili a Londra, abbiamo deciso di affidarci al Dott. Marcellino, che ci è sembrato fin da subito la scelta più affidabile. I risultati hanno superato persino le nostre più rosee aspettative e mio figlio non potrebbe essere più felice e ha finalmente ritrovato la serenità. Il Dott. Marcellino ha chiaramente dimostrato di avere straordinarie competenza, professionalità e grandissima esperienza, ed l’esito dell’operazione lo definirei assolutamente perfetto. Fin dalla prima telefonata e durante tutto il percorso, il Dott. Marcellino e la sua PA Giunko ci hanno seguito con incredibili gentilezza, disponibilità, professionalità e generosità. Prima, durante e dopo l'intervento sono stati sempre presenti e disponibili, pronti a rispondere a qualsiasi domanda e a offrirci supporto e rassicurazione. La guida, l'assistenza e il sostegno che ci hanno fornito sono stati preziosissimi, non solo per mio figlio ma anche per me e sua madre. Grazie a loro, un'esperienza potenzialmente difficile e stressante l’abbiamo vissuta con serenità e fiducia dall'inizio alla fine. Non potremmo essere più grati al Dott. Marcellino, a Giunko e a tutto il loro team. Li raccomandiamo senza alcuna esitazione a chiunque. La loro competenza, umanità e dedizione verso i pazienti sono davvero eccezionali.

Ha ascoltato con attenzione le mie esigenze e ha risposto con grande competenza e chiarezza a tutte le mie domande e perplessità, trasmettendomi fiducia. Il risultato ha superato le mie aspettative: il mio viso appare fresco, luminoso e realmente ringiovanito, pur rimanendo assolutamente naturale. Sono davvero soddisfatta e consiglio il dottor Marcellino a chiunque desideri affidarsi a un professionista serio, preparato e attento al benessere dei propri pazienti.

My son needed gynecomastia surgery and, among all the options available in London, we decided that Dr Marcellino was the most reliable. The results even exceeded our more optimistic expectations, and my son could not be happier. Dr Marcellino has done an extraordinary job, which clearly testifies to his outstanding skills and very long experience. Also, Dr Marcellino and his PA Giunko dealt with everything with an incredible kindness, friendliness, professionalism and generosity, from the very first phone call and throughout the whole process, before, during and after the surgery, always available 24/7. The guidance, support and reassurance they provided was so helpful, both for my son and for myself and his mother. We could not be more grateful to them and very highly recommend Dr Marcellino and his team to everyone!

Where do I even begin? This review is long overdue. I had surgery with Dr Marcellino for a scar revision, uplift, and implants back in November. Following a previous breast reduction with another surgeon that unfortunately left me with severe keloid scarring. This completely destroyed my confidence for years, so choosing to go through surgery again was a huge decision for me. From my initial consultation a few months prior to surgery, right through to the operation itself and the aftercare, the entire process with Dr Marcellino and his team was nothing short of incredible. Everything was seamless, effortless, and reassuring with absolutely zero issues before or after surgery. The results have honestly changed my life. My scarring is now minimal to almost nonexistent, and I have never felt this confident in my body throughout my twenties. Dr Marcellino’s attention to detail is second to none. The lift looks so natural that you would never even know I have implants. He truly listened to my concerns and fully understood my vision for how I wanted them to look — and he exceeded every expectation. I cannot thank Dr Marcellino enough, along with his incredible team and nurses who work alongside him. If you are considering a cosmetic procedure anywhere in the UK, I genuinely believe this is the surgeon you should trust.
