What is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin. It improves breast shape and proportion, alleviates physical discomfort such as back, neck, and shoulder pain, and enhances aesthetic balance.
Who is it For?
- Women with large, heavy breasts causing pain or discomfort
- Patients seeking better body proportions and symmetry
- Individuals experiencing skin irritation or posture issues
- Ideal for women who want a natural look combined with physical relief
How the Procedure Works
- Consultation & Assessment: Detailed evaluation of breast size, shape, skin quality, and patient goals.
- Anesthesia: General anesthesia ensures a comfortable procedure.
- Tissue Removal & Reshaping: Excess fat, tissue, and skin are removed; breasts are reshaped and lifted for a natural contour.
- Closure & Dressing: Incisions are closed carefully, often around the areola and vertically down the breast, with support garments applied.
Recovery & Follow-Up: Post-operative monitoring ensures healing and symmetry.
Recovery & Downtime
- Mild swelling, bruising, and tenderness may last 1–3 weeks
- Most patients resume light daily activities in 1–2 weeks
- Strenuous activity or lifting should be avoided for 4–6 weeks
- Final results appear gradually as swelling subsides over 2–3 months
