Breast Reduction

Is Breast Reduction right for me?

Breast reduction can be performed at any age, but plastic surgeons usually recommend waiting until breast development has stopped. Childbirth and breast feeding may affect the size and shape of your breasts. If you plan to breast-feed in the future, you should discuss this with your surgeon.

You may be a good candidate for breast reduction if you have any of the following conditions:

  • back, neck or shoulder pain caused by the weight or your breasts
  • heavy, sagging breasts with very low nipples and areolas
  • breasts that are too large in proportion to your body frame
  • skin irritation beneath the breasts
  • indention's in your shoulders caused by tight bra straps
  • restriction of physical activity due to the size and weight of your breasts
  • feelings of self-consciousness about the large size of your breasts
  • one breast that is much larger than the other.
   a) Heavy breasts can cause back, neck or shoulder pain, shoulder indention's due to tight bra straps, and extreme self- consciousness.
