Breast reduction (or reduction mammaplasty) is an enhancement procedure that reshapes the breasts in order to make them smaller, lighter and firmer. The breast reduction procedure can be a life-altering operation. Not only can the pain and discomfort of heavy breasts be eliminated, but the beauty and shape can be enhanced as well.
Large breasts can cause physical pain as well as emotional and social anxiety. Women who take advantage of the breast reduction procedure find that they are able to lead a healthier, more comfortable life, in addition to enjoying a beautiful, more proportioned appearance.
Our Plastic Surgery & MED Spa Consultation Team are waiting to help you with all your queries.
Aside from the physical discomfort, many women also feel emotional distress over unwanted attention paid to the size of their breasts. Women often feel that the size of their breasts affects their self-confidence and impedes their ability to enjoy everyday activities.
A breast reduction with breast lift is designed to reduce, reshape and lift overly large or sagging breasts so that each patient can feel confident about breasts that are more comfortable, balanced and proportionate to their body shape.
Even small amounts of tissue reduction can improve the breast shape as well as decrease the strain on the back and shoulders. Reduction is accomplished by removing excess fat, glandular tissue and skin.
We are so privileged to have been able to look after so many patients that are thrilled with their results.
There are many reasons a woman might choose breast reduction surgery or a breast reduction with a lift. Some of these include:
During your consultation you will be encouraged to discuss all concerns and expectations for surgery. Dr. Wali will discuss each option for his advanced scar minimizing techniques. No women’s breasts are completely symmetrical, but Dr. Wali will discuss all options for creating the most balanced firm and youthful breasts unique to every patient.
During a consultation, Dr. Wali will go over the details of the procedure and ensure that you have realistic expectations. To set your expectations accordingly, it is helpful to look over breast reduction before and after photos in advance.
Many patients seeking breast reduction surgery due to health-related reasons are able to receive insurance coverage. If you have any questions about insurance coverage or would like to further discuss Dr. Wali’s breast reduction techniques, please feel free to call the office at 909-624-4440. We will be happy to answer any questions or to assist you in scheduling your consultation with Dr. Wali.
There are many reasons a woman might choose breast reduction surgery or a breast reduction with a lift. Some of these include:
Techniques for breast reduction vary depending on the amount of tissue being removed; however, the most common procedure involves an incision that circles the areola. From the areola, the incision goes down and follows the natural curve under the breast.
Dr. Wali will then remove excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin. Next, the nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher position and held in place by stitches. Areola reduction may also be performed so that the size matches the new breast size. Occasionally, liposuction alone can be used to reduce breast size. The best procedure can be determined during your initial consultation with Dr. Wali.
Of all plastic surgery procedures, breast reduction results in the quickest body-image changes. Patients are pleased with the elimination of physical pain caused by large breasts as well as a better proportioned body, an enhanced appearance, and better fitting clothes.
Generally, post-operative instructions call for plenty of rest and limited movement in order to speed up the breast reduction healing process and reduce the recovery time. Our Plastic Surgery SoCal team will apply bandages immediately following surgery to aid the healing process and to minimize movement of the breasts. Once the bandages are removed, a specialized surgical bra will need to be worn for several weeks.
Patients sometimes report minor pain associated with surgery. Any pain can be treated with oral medication. While complications are rare, patients can minimize potential problems by carefully following the instructions provided by Dr. Wali after surgery.
This procedure’s cost varies based on many factors. The price of breast reduction is impacted by the time needed to perform the surgery, the amount of tissue to be removed, and the techniques employed.
