Breast Reduction

Breast reduction is an operative procedure performed to reduce the size of large breasts by the removal of excess breast skin and underlying breast tissue. Breast reduction is designed to ease physical discomfort, such as backaches, irritation at the crease of the breast or difficulty breathing. As a result of reduction in breast weight, physical activity is often more comfortable following recovery.

Breast reduction surgery is performed in the hospital or at our surgical facility under general anesthesia. Depending on the extent of the procedure, surgery will take three to four hours. To learn more about breast reduction surgery, contact our practice for a consultation!
