Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical intervention that reduces breast size and reshapes them. It is commonly sought to alleviate physical discomfort from excessively large breasts, leading to back, neck, and shoulder pain. Excess breast tissue and skin are surgically removed, leading to smaller and more proportionate breasts.

If you struggle with the size and weight of overly large breasts, you may be a candidate for reduction surgery. Genetic factors determine breast size, and even with the healthiest diet and exercise, breast tissue doesn't naturally reduce. You might be a candidate if you experience:
Breast reduction surgery, performed under anesthesia, removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin and reshapes the breasts. The nipples are often repositioned as well. Incision patterns vary based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. Our surgeon sculpts the breasts, removes excess tissue, and closes incisions, resulting in smaller, lifted, and more proportionate breasts.

The surgeon combines a circular incision around the areola for a moderate reduction with a vertical incision down to the breast crease.
Breast reduction delivers transformative results, reducing breast size while enhancing shape and contour. Patients experience relief from pain and discomfort, improved self-confidence, and greater ease in finding well-fitting clothing. Scarring, while present, fades over time, leaving patients with attractive, lifted breasts and improved overall quality of life.
After the breast reduction surgery, you will be taken to a recovery room, where you will be monitored by medical staff. You will likely experience some pain, swelling, and discomfort in the chest area; you will be given pain medication and instructions on how to care for your incisions and bandages.
You’ll need to rest and avoid strenuous activity for the first few days after surgery. While you may experience bruising and swelling, this can be managed with ice packs and pain medication. You’ll also wear a surgical bra or compression garment to support your breasts and help reduce swelling.
You will have a follow-up appointment with your Athēnix surgeon to check your healing progress and remove any stitches or drains. Remember that you may be able to return to light activities but should still avoid anything too strenuous.
Continue avoiding heavy lifting or strenuous exercise, although you may be able to return to work and resume some normal activities. Your breasts may still be swollen and tender, but should start to feel more comfortable.
You can resume most normal activities, including exercise and lifting while avoiding activities that strain the chest area too much. At this point, your breasts should start to settle into their new shape and size.
Your breasts should be fully healed, and any swelling or discomfort should be gone. While you may notice some scarring, this should fade over time.
At six months, your breasts should be fully healed, and you should be able to enjoy the full benefits of your breast reduction surgery, including improved comfort, mobility, and self-confidence.

Is breast reduction surgery safe?
How do I choose the top breast reduction surgeon?
Can I breastfeed after a breast reduction?
How do I prepare for breast reduction surgery?
Breast reduction surgery is generally considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced surgeon. However, as with any surgery, risks are involved, such as infection, bleeding, scarring, and changes in nipple sensation. It's important to discuss the potential risks and benefits with your surgeon before making a decision.
Choosing the right surgeon for your breast reduction surgery is crucial. Look for a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience performing breast reduction surgeries. You can also ask for recommendations from friends or family members who have had similar procedures done. It's essential to schedule a consultation with the surgeon to discuss your goals, concerns, and expectations.
Breastfeeding post-reduction surgery is feasible but challenging, depending on the technique, tissue removal, and time passed. Discuss your goals and limitations with your surgeon during your consultation.
Preparing for breast reduction surgery involves several steps. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions, but some general guidelines include quitting smoking, avoiding certain medications and supplements, and maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine. You may also need to undergo pre-operative tests and arrange for someone to drive you home after the surgery. Following all instructions carefully is essential to ensure a safe and successful surgery.
