Disproportionately large breasts can cause mental and physical distress. Breast reduction surgery is a procedure performed to reduce and reshape the breasts, leaving you more comfortable internally and externally.
Large breasts can lead to neck and back pain and poor posture. It can also hinder daily activities. The surgery removes excess fat in the breasts through liposuction and/or surgically removes glandular breast tissue, leaving them firmer and better suited to the body. Each areola and nipple is reshaped to better fit the new dimensions of the breast.
