The Procedure
During breast reduction surgery, the surgeon removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body. The procedure may also include repositioning the nipple and areola to a more natural position.
Recovery & Aftercare
The recovery period varies for each patient. To minimize swelling, a compression garment is worn post surgery and vigorous exercise is completely off-limits within the first 3 to 4 weeks. The total healing time can be anything from 7 weeks to 10 weeks.
Expected Results
Most patients experience immediate relief from physical symptoms such as back and neck pain. The final aesthetic results become apparent as swelling subsides, typically within 3-6 months.
