BREAST REDUCTION

Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size and weight of overly large breasts. This involves removing excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin, resulting in breasts that are more proportional to your body, alleviating physical discomfort and enhancing overall appearance.

Ideal candidates for breast reduction are individuals experiencing physical discomfort such as back, neck, or shoulder pain due to the weight of their breasts. Emotional concerns related to self-image and lifestyle limitations can also be addressed through this procedure. Candidates should be in good health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes.

The recovery period for breast reduction varies, but patients typically experience some swelling and discomfort for a few days. Our team will provide detailed post-operative instructions, including the use of support garments and restrictions on physical activities. Most patients can return to regular activities within a few weeks, with full recovery achieved over several weeks to a few months.

While breast reduction surgery may affect the ability to breastfeed, advancements in surgical techniques aim to preserve milk ducts and maintain breastfeeding potential. It’s essential to discuss your desire for future breastfeeding with our experienced surgeons during the consultation to address individual concerns and expectations.
