ABOUT THE PROCEDURE
What is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammaplasty, is designed to remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin, achieving a smaller, more proportional breast size. The procedure is ideal for women experiencing physical discomfort such as back pain, shoulder pain, or skin irritation due to large breasts.
Many women seek this surgery to alleviate discomfort, improve posture, and enhance their quality of life. The procedure also has cosmetic benefits, creating a more balanced silhouette and boosting self-confidence.
Breast reduction is best suited for patients at a stable, healthy weight and in good overall health. During your free consultation, our experienced surgeons will assess your needs and discuss the best approach for you.
Physical relief or cosmetic improvement?
Breast reduction addresses both physical symptoms and emotional wellbeing. Many patients experience both.
Physical Relief
Reduces the weight and volume of the breasts to relieve strain on the back, neck, and shoulders. Improves posture, mobility, and daily comfort.
- Back, neck, or shoulder pain
- Skin irritation beneath the breasts
- Difficulty with physical activity or exercise
- Bra strap grooving and poor posture
Cosmetic Improvement
Achieves a smaller, more proportional breast size for a balanced silhouette. Improves clothing fit and boosts self-confidence.
- Breasts that feel out of proportion with your frame
- Difficulty finding clothing that fits properly
- Self-consciousness about breast size
- A desire for a more balanced figure
A thorough consultation determines which approach – or a combined strategy – is appropriate for you.
CANDIDACY
Is breast reduction right for you?
Breast reduction offers relief from physical discomfort like back and shoulder pain, improves posture, and enhances mobility. It helps achieve a more proportional appearance, boosts confidence, and allows for better clothing fit. The procedure also reduces skin irritation, making everyday activities more comfortable and enjoyable. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, at a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes.
Breast reduction may be appropriate if you are experiencing:
- Physical discomfort such as back, neck, or shoulder pain
- Skin irritation or chafing beneath the breasts
- Difficulty with physical activity due to breast size
- Difficulty finding clothing that fits properly
- Self-consciousness that affects your daily confidence
The goal is never to sell surgery. It is to ensure any procedure recommended is safe, appropriate, and likely to deliver a meaningful result.
THE PROCEDURE
What happens during surgery?
Breast reduction surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2 to 4 hours. The procedure involves carefully reshaping the breasts to achieve the desired size and symmetry.
Tissue removal and reshaping
2-4 hours
Incisions are made to remove excess tissue, fat, and skin. The nipples and areolas are repositioned to suit the new breast size. The remaining tissue is tightened to create a more lifted, proportional appearance.
Recovery support
Overnight hospital stay
After surgery, you’ll wear a supportive bra to aid healing and maintain your new breast shape. Our surgeons focus on minimizing scarring and ensuring natural-looking results. The procedure significantly improves physical comfort, allowing you to engage in daily activities more freely and confidently.
