BREAST REDUCTION (Reduction Mammaplasty)

Disproportionately large breasts can cause pain and discomfort, including back and neck pain, shoulder and muscle problems, posture problems, skeletal deformities, breathing difficulties and rashes. Clothes and bras are hard to fit, and very large breasts can severely interfere with sports and fitness activities such as running, climbing and more. In addition to the physical pain, overly large breasts can cause emotional distress, loss of confidence and embarrassment.

Breast reduction surgery removes excess tissue and tightens the skin, resulting in smaller, lighter breasts more in proportion to the rest of your body. Results are long-lasting, and patients who have undergone this breast reduction procedure report feeling less pain and discomfort and more self-confidence. Surgery to reduce breast size is often recommended to reduce pain, to remove implants (explant surgery or breast revision) or even out breasts that are not symmetrical.
