Breast Reduction

Good candidates for breast reduction are individuals who experience physical discomfort due to the size of their breasts, such as neck, back, or shoulder pain, or difficulty engaging in physical activities. You should also be in good health and have realistic expectations about the results.

Breastfeeding after breast reduction is possible, but it can be affected by the amount of tissue removed and the surgical technique used. It’s important to discuss your plans for future breastfeeding with your surgeon during the consultation.

Most patients can return to light activities within 1 to 2 weeks, but full recovery may take several weeks. During this time, you will need to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activities to ensure proper healing.

Scarring is inevitable with breast reduction surgery, but our skilled surgeons use techniques to minimize the appearance of scars. Over time, scars will fade and become less noticeable. Your surgeon will discuss scar placement and expected healing during your consultation.

After surgery, you can expect relief from physical discomfort and a more proportionate, balanced appearance. Many patients also experience an increase in confidence and find that clothing fits more comfortably. Your results will be noticeable after swelling subsides, with final results typically seen within a few months.
