Breast reduction (or reduction mammaplasty) is an enhancement procedure that reshapes the breasts in order to make them smaller, lighter, and firmer.
Reduction is accomplished by removing excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin. Large breasts can cause physical pain as well as emotional and social anxiety.
Women who take advantage of the breast reduction procedure find that they are able to lead a healthier, more comfortable life, in addition to enjoying a beautiful, more proportionate appearance.

WHAT DOES A GYNAECOMASTIA CORRECTION PROCEDURE INVOLVE?
Techniques for breast reduction vary; however, the most common procedure involves an incision that circles the areola. From the areola, the incision goes down and follows the natural curve under the breast. The surgeon then removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin. The best procedure can be determined during the initial consultation visit.
WHAT IS THE RECOVERY LIKE AFTER A BREAST REDUCTION?
Generally, post-operative instructions call for plenty rest and limited movement in order to speed up the healing process and recovery time. Dressings are applied immediately at the time of surgery and a supportive bra which will need to be worn for several weeks before any under wired bra could be used.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF A BREAST REDUCTION?
Patients sometimes report minor pain associated with surgery which can be treated with oral medication. While complications are rare, patients can minimise potential problems by carefully following the post-operative directions given by the team.
WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT FROM A BREAST REDUCTION?
Breast reduction surgery provides one of the most positive of all body-image changes. Patients are in general very pleased with the elimination of physical discomfort caused by large breasts as well as a better-proportioned body, an enhanced appearance, and better fitting clothes.

TEST 1
Techniques for breast reduction vary; however, the most common procedure involves an incision that circles the areola. From the areola, the incision goes down and follows the natural curve under the breast. The surgeon then removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin. Next, the nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher position and held in place by stitches. Occasionally, liposuction alone can be used to reduce breast size. The best procedure can be determined during the initial consultation visit.
