Rediscover Comfort and Confidence with Breast Reduction Surgery

What is Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce the size and weight of the breasts. By reshaping and lifting the breasts, breast reduction helps create a more balanced, proportional silhouette. This procedure not only provides a more youthful appearance, but also alleviates physical discomforts such as back, neck, and shoulder pain, skin irritation, and difficulty finding well-fitting clothing. At Specialized Plastic Surgery, our approach to breast reduction is customized for each patient, ensuring that results are natural, symmetrical, and in harmony with your body.

Why Choose a Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction offers numerous benefits, both physical and emotional, making it a life-changing procedure for many women. Key benefits include:

Reducing Physical Discomfort

Large breasts can cause chronic pain in the back, neck, and shoulders. Breast reduction alleviates these issues, making daily activities and exercise more comfortable.

Improved Mobility and Fitness

Smaller, lighter breasts allow for greater ease and comfort in physical activities, from running to yoga.

Enhanced Body Proportion and Symmetry

By creating a balanced shape, breast reduction enhances your silhouette, making clothing fit better and boosting self-confidence.

Relief from Skin Irritation and Discomfort

Reducing breast size alleviates skin chafing and indentations from bra straps, common issues for those with large breasts.

If you’re experiencing physical or emotional discomfort from overly large breasts, breast reduction can be a transformative option that enhances both comfort and aesthetics.

Who is a Good Candidate for Breast Reduction?

Ideal candidates for breast reduction are in overall good health, have realistic expectations, and are non-smokers. You may be a good candidate if:

You experience chronic back, neck, or shoulder pain due to large breasts.
Your breast size limits physical activity or causes self-consciousness.
You have indentations from bra straps or persistent skin irritations beneath the breasts.
You are looking for a permanent solution to achieve smaller, more balanced breasts.

During your consultation at Specialized Plastic Surgery, our plastic surgeons will assess your health, anatomy, and goals to determine if breast reduction is the best choice for you.

Expert Techniques for Breast Reduction

Specialized Plastic Surgery offers several breast reduction techniques tailored to each patient’s anatomy and desired results:

Liposuction Reduction: For patients with minor reduction needs and good skin elasticity, liposuction can reduce breast size with minimal scarring.
Vertical (Lollipop) Reduction: Using a circular incision around the areola and a vertical line down the breast crease, this technique allows for significant tissue removal and reshaping.
Anchor (Inverted-T) Reduction: For substantial reductions, the anchor technique involves incisions around the areola, vertically to the breast crease, and horizontally along the crease, allowing for comprehensive reshaping and lifting.

Our expert plastic surgeons will recommend the best technique based on your anatomy and reduction goals, prioritizing minimal scarring and optimal contour.

Performed under general anesthesia, breast reduction surgery typically takes about 3-4 hours. Here’s a brief overview of the process:

Incision Placement: The chosen incision type is made based on your individual needs and the degree of reduction desired.
Removal and Reshaping: Excess tissue, fat, and skin are removed, and the breast is reshaped to a balanced contour. The nipple and areola may also be repositioned.
Closing the Incision: Incisions are closed with precision to minimize scarring and promote a smooth recovery.

Each step is conducted with your safety, comfort, and satisfaction in mind, ensuring a positive surgical experience and excellent results.

After breast reduction, patients typically experience swelling, soreness, and mild bruising, which gradually subsides over the first few days. Our enhanced recovery protocol includes thorough aftercare instruction and support. You can expect to:

Return to work within 1-2 weeks, depending on your job’s physical demands.
Avoid strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks.
Enjoy final results within a few months, as swelling fully resolves and scars begin to fade.

Our team schedules follow-up appointments to monitor your healing and answer any questions you may have as you recover.
