Breast reduction or reduction mammoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin to bring the breast size into proportion with the rest of your body. This procedure is used to treat macromastia (having excessively large breasts) but can also be used as a cosmetic procedure to address the needs of patients who want to reduce the size of their breasts to gain the freedom to wear low-cut tops, unsupportive bralettes, and other articles of clothing.
When is a breast reduction recommended?
A breast reduction is recommended for women who suffer from macromastia. Macromastia causes both physical and emotional harm to the patient. Overly large breasts will affect the proportion of the body and the way the patient feels about herself. However, there are also physical effects derived from macromastia such as back pain and the inability to perform some tasks or participate in some sports.
This procedure is also recommended for women who do not suffer from macromastia but wish to reduce their breast size out of cosmetic concerns or to be able to feel comfortable and confident in certain clothing items.
