Before & After
Frequently Asked Questions
What is breast reduction?
Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to alleviate physical discomfort and improve proportions by removing excess breast tissue, resulting in smaller, lighter, and more balanced breasts.
Who is a suitable candidate for breast reduction?
Women with disproportionately large breasts experiencing discomfort, pain, or self-image concerns are often ideal candidates. Consultation with a skilled surgeon assesses your unique situation to determine if breast reduction aligns with your goals.
Will a breast reduction procedure alter breast size significantly?
Absolutely, breast reduction significantly reduces breast size to enhance comfort and aesthetics. The procedure is tailored to achieve proportions in line with your desired outcome, providing relief from physical and emotional discomfort.
How long is the recovery after a breast reduction?
Recovery varies, with most returning to non-strenuous activities within a few weeks. Full healing, reduction of swelling, and optimal results take a few months as your body adjusts to the new breast size.
What are the potential risks of breast reduction?
Potential risks include infection, scarring, changes in nipple sensation, asymmetry, and rare complications. Your surgeon discusses these in detail during consultation, emphasizing safety and satisfaction while addressing any concerns you may have.
