Breast reduction surgery or reduction mammoplasty dramatically improves our patients’ quality of life offing relief from discomfort and pain. Women experiencing health problems and/or extreme self-consciousness associated with very large, heavy breasts will benefit from breast reduction surgery. Medical problems that may be associated with large breasts include back and neck pain caused by the excessive weight, skin irritation, bra strap indentations, poor posture, and interference with normal daily activities such as exercise. The surgery removes fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breasts, making them smaller, lighter, and firmer. It can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple. This can alleviate the health problems associated with large breasts and improve a woman’s confidence in her appearance. Breast reduction surgery is usually covered by insurance.

Breast reduction surgery is most often an outpatient procedure. It is done under general anesthesia and typically takes 2-3 hours. Breast reduction surgery patients will need to limit strenuous upper body activity and wear a sports bra for several weeks after surgery.
Alleviate health problems and gain confidence that comes with a new and improved body image.
