What is Breast Reduction surgery?

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of the breasts by removing excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin. The primary goal is often to alleviate physical discomfort and improve the overall shape and proportion of the breasts to better align with the patient’s body.

How does Breast Reduction surgery work?

During the procedure, the surgeon will make incisions to remove the excess tissue and then reshape the remaining tissue and skin. The specific technique used can vary based on the patient’s anatomy and the amount of reduction desired.

Breast Reduction FAQs
  • How long do Breast Reduction results last?

    Results are generally long-lasting, but factors such as aging, weight changes, and hormonal fluctuations can affect breast shape over time.

  • What is the recovery time for a Breast Reduction?

    Recovery from breast reduction surgery involves managing initial discomfort with pain medication, dealing with swelling and bruising, and adhering to activity restrictions for a few weeks. Patients typically wear supportive dressings or bras, avoid strenuous activities, and follow up with their surgeon to monitor healing. While most people can resume light activities within 4 to 6 weeks, full results and final breast shape may take several months. Proper post-operative care and adherence to instructions are essential for a smooth recovery and optimal results.

  • Can a Breast Reduction be combined with other procedures?

    Yes, a breast reduction can be paired with other procedures like a breast lift, liposuction, tummy tuck, or body contouring for enhanced results. Combining procedures, such as a breast lift to address sagging or a tummy tuck in a mommy makeover, can provide a more comprehensive body transformation and often reduces overall recovery time.

  • Who would be the right candidate for Breast Reduction surgery?

    The right candidate for breast reduction surgery is typically someone who experiences physical discomfort, such as back, neck, or shoulder pain, due to large breasts, and who is in overall good health. Individuals who find that large breasts significantly impact their daily life or quality of life are often well-suited for the procedure.
