The Breast Reduction Procedure
If you’re considering breast reduction surgery, the first step will be to sit down for a consultation with one of our skilled plastic surgeons. During this private meeting, your surgeon will examine your breasts and discuss your specific goals for the procedure. This will include discussing your reasons for desiring the surgery and how much smaller you’d like your breasts to be. Based on your unique needs and goals, your surgeon will work with you to devise a custom-tailored treatment plan.
Your breast reduction surgery will be an outpatient procedure performed using general anesthesia. During the procedure, your surgeon will typically make small incisions around the areola, down the center of the breast, and along the crease beneath the breast. They will then carefully remove excess fat, tissue, and skin based on your unique treatment plan. The nipples may also be repositioned to achieve a more natural look. The incisions will then be closed with sutures, and the area will be bandaged as necessary. You’ll need to be monitored for a couple of hours after the procedure to ensure that there are no complications. After that, a friend or family member can drive you home.
