Learn More About How You Can Benefit From Breast Reduction Surgery
While it's more common to hear that a person wants breast augmentation, breast reduction surgery is necessary for many women. Overly large breasts might cause daily shoulder, neck, back, and head pain. The pain caused by large breasts can negatively affect a woman's life.
If you feel that your breasts are too large, cause you pain, or get in the way, you might be a candidate for breast reduction surgery in Miami. An experienced and compassionate doctor at APS Institute of South Florida will evaluate your breasts to determine if this procedure will help improve your health and quality of life.

What Is Breast Reduction Surgery?
The medical term for breast reduction surgery is mammoplasty. Plastic surgeons usually use an anchor-shaped incision during this procedure. The incision goes around the nipple to the base of your breast. It then goes along your inframammary fold.
Your plastic surgeon uses this incision to remove excess skin from the lower half of your breast. In some scenarios, they'll incorporate liposuction to get rid of fatty tissue inside your breast.
Once the tissue has gotten removed, your plastic surgeon will relocate your nipple. They'll close the incisions to create perkier, smaller breasts. Your breasts will fit your body better and feel more comfortable.
Breast Reduction With Implants
As you go through a breast reduction procedure, you might have loose skin and stretch marks. One way to ensure your breasts look full and symmetrical is to add some breast implants. Your plastic surgeon will advise you if you'll achieve better results with implants.
Breast Reduction With Lift
Women's breasts can be saggy for various reasons. Some of these reasons include:
-
Age
-
Weight loss
-
Pregnancy
Your plastic surgeon will recommend if they believe you'll benefit from a breast lift. Many patients opt for both implants and a lift during their procedure.
Who's a Good Candidate for a Breast Reduction?
If you're suffering from lifestyle and health problems because of excessively large breasts, you might benefit from a breast reduction. For example, heavy breasts might result in your spine curving due to their weight.
Additionally, overly large breasts might make a woman feel self-conscious. Her breasts could also cause her more pain when she's being active. The pain she experiences might deter her from doing what she loves, like exercising or playing sports.
Women who have large breasts might run into problems finding bras and other undergarments that fit their chest.
What Are the Benefits of Breast Reduction?
There are psychological and physical benefits of breast reduction. Breast reduction surgery can relieve the pain you experience when active or walking around. You'll also avoid having your bra straps digging into your shoulders from the heavy weight of your breasts.
Your self-confidence will increase as your breasts get reduced. Your breasts will also be more proportionate to your body frame than before.
Another benefit of breast reduction is finding clothes that fit you better. In addition to finding undergarments in your size, you can fit more easily into shirts, dresses, and blouses.
How Long Does Breast Reduction Surgery Take?
You'll get put under a general anesthetic during your surgery. Breast reduction takes around two to three hours to complete. You can expect to go home the same day.
How Long Is the Recovery Period?
Your plastic surgeon will likely prescribe painkillers, so you don't feel uncomfortable after your surgery. You'll wear pressure garments to help speed up the healing process.
Most patients can take a shower the day after their breast reduction surgery. You'll come back into our office several days after your procedure so that we can remove the dressings. Your wounds should be healed entirely at that point.
You'll have to wear a sports bra for four weeks after that point. Once that timeframe is up, you can get measured for a new bra.
