Breasts that are too large for a woman’s physique can negatively impact her life. They can be unmanageable and problematic when shopping for undergarments, swimsuits, and clothing in general. Big breasts can also make a woman feel self-conscious in front of others. For some, this is not just a cosmetic concern: breasts that are overly large can sag and lead to severe pain and skin irritation in the breast crease. In these cases, breast reduction may be an ideal solution to improve the patient’s appearance and quality of life.
Breast Reduction
Reduction mammoplasty, as breast reduction is otherwise called, is a cosmetic surgery that makes the breasts smaller and improves their appearance. During breast reduction surgery, excess fat, skin, and tissue are removed from the breast, and it is contoured to create an attractive, well-positioned appearance on the chest. The result is a more proportionate look that complements, as opposed to overwhelms, your figure.
