Breast reduction
Breast Reduction techniques
Also known as reduction mammaplasty, this surgery reduces the
weight, mass and size of the breasts. The surgical procedure involves
the removal of fat, breast tissue and skin from the breasts and
remodelling the shape of the breasts, making them smaller, lighter and
firmer. The goal is to give you smaller breasts which are attractively
shaped and are in proportion with the rest of your body.

Who are candidates for breast reduction surgery?
Patients who seek breast reduction may have a predisposition for
large, disproportionate breasts, a sensitivity to oestrogen during
development or pregnancy, may be overweight or may have a
significant asymmetry between their breasts.
Although some patients choose breast reduction for cosmetic reasons,
many who undergo breast reduction surgery are seeking relief
from the many physical symptoms and medical complaints caused by
the excessive weight of large breasts. For many the breasts are
painful and cause pain in the neck, back and shoulders. In older
patients the added weight may make breathing more difficult. Large
breasts make it difficult to find clothes that fit and cause painful marks
on the shoulders from bra straps. The fold beneath the breast may
become irritated, excoriated, inflamed and uncomfortable. Many
women, especially younger ones, are very sensitive to jokes or
remarks about the size of their breasts. Large breasts make it difficult
to play sports and can be socially embarrassing.
