Should you register for a mammogram before your breast reduction?

Before the planned breast reduction, women over the age of 35-40 should undergo a mammogram so that they can react accordingly in the event of suspicious findings. A mammogram is also recommended 12 months after the breast correction so that the radiologist knows the initial findings and can better compare and classify later changes.

Breast cancer screening after breast reduction

After this operation, there is neither an increase nor a decrease in the incidence of breast cancer. Cancer screening is of course also necessary after breast reduction.
