What is a Breast Reduction?

A breast reduction, also called a reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that helps to make your breasts smaller. It involves carefully removing excess fat, tissue, and skin to create a breast size that feels more comfortable and balanced with the rest of your body. The goal is to provide relief from physical discomfort and improve the overall shape of your breasts.

Breast Reduction Procedure: What to Expect

Step 1—Anesthesia

The procedure begins with the administration of local anesthesia and IV sedation to ensure your comfort.

Step 2—The Incision(s)

Incisions are strategically made, often in patterns like an anchor, lollipop, or around the areola, based on your needs.

Step 3—Reshaping Breast Tissue

Excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin are removed, and the nipple-areola complex is repositioned to a higher, more youthful placement.

Step 4—Closing the Incisions

Incisions are meticulously closed with sutures, and surgical dressings are applied to support your new breast shape.

Step 5—Recovery Time

Initial recovery involves swelling and bruising, with most patients returning to light activities within 1-2 weeks.

Step 6—The Results

Immediate reduction in size is visible, with final, contoured results emerging as swelling subsides over several months.
