Breast Reduction

What is Breast Reduction?

Breast Reduction, also known as Reduction Mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to reduce the size and volume of the breasts. It involves removing excess breast tissue and reshaping the breasts to achieve a more proportionate and desired size.

Who is a suitable candidate for Breast Reduction?

Women who experience physical discomfort such as back, neck, or shoulder pain due to the weight and size of their breasts are suitable candidates for Breast Reduction. Additionally, individuals who are unhappy with the aesthetic appearance or asymmetry of their breasts may also consider this procedure. It is important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine if you are a suitable candidate.

How is the Breast Reduction procedure performed?

During a Breast Reduction procedure, incisions are made to remove excess breast tissue and reshape the breasts. The size and pattern of the incisions may vary depending on the individual's breast size and desired outcome. The surgeon will also reposition the nipples and areolas to a more natural and proportionate position. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.

What is the recovery process like?

After Breast Reduction surgery, patients may experience temporary swelling, bruising, and discomfort. A supportive bra or compression garment will be provided to assist with the healing process and help minimize swelling. It is important to follow the surgeon's post-operative instructions, which may include restrictions on physical activities and proper wound care. Most patients can resume regular daily activities within a few weeks, with full results becoming apparent as the breasts heal and settle into their new shape.
