What is breast reduction surgery?

Also known as reduction mammoplasty, breast reduction surgery removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body and to alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts. Very often, women usually with large, sagging or uneven breasts are dissatisfied with their physical appearance. Some experience pain or discomfort from the sheer weight of their breasts and the pressure of brassiere straps on their shoulder.

Breast reduction is usually performed in a hospital or an outpatient surgical setting under general anesthesia one of the techniques most frequently used is called a brassiere pattern skin reduction. This technique involves both vertical and horizontal incisions made around the nipple area.

  • You are physically healthy.
  • You have realistic expectations.
  • You don’t smoke.
  • You are bothered by the feeling that your breasts are too large.
  • Your breasts limit your physical activity.
  • You experience back, neck and shoulder pain caused by the weight of your breasts.
  • You have regular indentations from bra straps that support heavy, pendulous breasts.
  • You have skin irritation beneath the breast crease.
  • Your breasts hang low and have stretched skin.
  • Your nipples rest below the breast crease when your breasts are unsupported.
  • You have enlarged areolas caused by stretched skin.

How long does the recovery take?

Many patients have questions about recovery from breast surgery.

When your breast reduction procedure is complete, dressings or bandages will be applied to the incisions. An elastic bandage or support bra may be worn to minimize swelling and support the breasts as they heal.

A small, thin tube may be temporarily placed under the skin to drain any excess blood or fluid that may collect.
