Who are candidates for breast reduction surgery?

Breast reduction
Breast reduction or reduction mammoplasty, is the surgical procedure used to reduce the size of the breasts, by removing fat, breast tissue and skin.

With this surgery, it is possible to minimize the breasts, making them lighter and firmer, since by the size they tend to weigh and lose firmness over the years.
Women with very large breasts often have health problems due to excess weight on their chest, such as back, neck problems, irritations under the skin of the breast and sometimes have complications with breathing.

Who is the ideal candidate for breast reduction surgery?
Reductive mammoplasty is usually done to alleviate a physical problem, rather than for aesthetic reasons. The volume of the breasts often interferes with daily activities and causes physical discomfort.

The ideal candidates for reduction surgery are women who have large and hanging breasts, which interfere with their physical development, generate discomfort and pain.

What are the benefits?

– Relief from physical discomfort
Heavy, large breasts can deform a woman’s body, especially when they are disproportionately large compared to the structure of her body. This additional weight of the breasts can cause alterations in posture and deformities in the spine.

– Greater satisfaction with appearance and increased confidence
In addition to the physical relief that surgery represents, many patients want breast reduction because they are uncomfortable with the unwanted attention that the size of their chest causes.

– Contact a breast reduction surgeon for more information
It is very important that the patient be evaluated by a qualified cosmetic surgeon to get more information about the options that are available to treat your case.
