Breast Reduction is not only a medical decision – it is a personal one. The performed provides physical relief and quite often cosmetic improvement.

Why Consider a Breast Reduction?

When you have very large and often pendulous breasts you may often experience back and neck pain due to their excessive weight and stress on your spine. Your bra straps may leave indentations in your shoulders, or sweat reactions under the breast may cause irritation. Furthermore it is not unusual for large breasts to make you feel extremely self-conscious.

What is a Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction is an operation to alter the size and shape of your breasts. Specifically the procedure removes fat, gland, and skin from the breasts, making them smaller, lighter, and firmer. Additionally it reduces reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple. My surgical goal is to give you smaller, better-shaped breasts in proportion with the rest of your body.

In most cases, breast reduction isn't performed until a woman's breasts are fully developed. However, it can be done during adolescence if large breasts are causing you serious physical and or emotional discomfort. It is important that you are mature enough to fully understand the procedure and have realistic expectations about your results. Importantly the 'scar less' reduction utlising liposculpture techniques may be an alternative if you are not excessively pendulous and have good skin tone.

What does the Procedure involve?

Frequently 'Day procedure' performed under a general anaesthetic. The relatively swift recovery times in modern breast surgery means it's easier than ever for you to achieve the figure you want. Most ladies have returned to work within 1 week and most have returned to their gym regime within 3 weeks.
