The anchor pattern surgery is the most invasive breast reduction procedure. This variant is also called; T-incision, inverted T pattern, or Weiss Method. This 30 sec. YouTube video shows clearly how this procedure is performed and the scar it will leave: Anchor Breast Reduction Procedure.

Because this is the most radical procedure it results in the most scarring. In order to avoid ugly scars it is recommended to treat them right away. This means as soon as the wound has closed and certainly not before.

Anchor shaped, self-adhesive silicone gel pads are the most efficient way of preventing hypertrophic and keloid scarring. Silicones have shown to make surgical scars less red, flatter and softer. These dedicated products also come in an aureola circle shape. This way maximum convenience is provided and cutting large sheets into customized shapes is not necessary.

Dedication and determination are required because the pads should be worn on the breast reduction anchor scar for at least 12 hours every day for a period of at least two months.  But the efforts are worth it because it is clinically proven that the results are far better then those gained when using creams or lotions.
