Breast Reduction for Comfort and Proportion

Reduce breast size, improve body proportion, and relieve physical discomfort.

Breast Reduction

Breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure designed to remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to create a smaller, more balanced breast shape.

It’s often chosen by individuals experiencing neck, back, or shoulder pain, difficulty with physical activity, or self-consciousness due to breast size. The procedure can improve both physical comfort and body confidence.

The Benefits
  • Relieve neck, back, and shoulder pain
  • Improve posture and mobility
  • Achieve more balanced proportions
  • Feel more comfortable in clothing

Understanding the Procedure

STEP 1

Consultation

You’ll discuss symptoms, goals, and surgical expectations to determine if breast reduction is right for you.

STEP 2

Surgical Plan

Your surgeon will outline the incision pattern, amount of tissue to remove, and whether the nipple needs repositioning.

STEP 3

Procedure

Excess tissue, fat, and skin are removed. The breasts are reshaped, and the nipples may be elevated for a natural, balanced look. 

STEP 4

Recovery

Most patients return to non-strenuous activity within a week. Swelling and soreness improve steadily over a few weeks.
