What is breast Reduction?
Breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) removes excess breast tissue, fat and skin and lifts the nipple to a higher position. Apart from appearance, it relieves neck, back and shoulder pain, bra strap grooves and skin rashes under the breasts caused by large, heavy breasts. Incisions are usually around the nipple and vertically down, sometimes also along the fold under the breast.
How is breast Reduction done?
- Consultation and measurements
- Breast imaging according to age
- Surgery under general anaesthesia
- Removing excess tissue and reshaping the breast
- Support bra and check-ups
Who is breast Reduction suitable for?
- People with neck, back and shoulder pain due to large breasts
- People with rashes under the breasts and bra strap grooves
- People whose activities are limited by breast size
- Men with gynaecomastia have a separate operation
Aftercare: what to watch out for
- Wear the support bra for as long as advised.
- Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise for 4–6 weeks.
- Protect scars from the sun and follow scar care advice.
Possible side effects and risks
- Permanent scars (they fade over time)
- Changes in nipple sensation
- Reduced ability to breastfeed
- Asymmetry
- Delayed wound healing
Are there alternatives?
Weight loss, a well-fitting supportive bra and physiotherapy for neck and back pain can help some people. Liposuction alone may be enough when the breast is mostly fat.
