Reduction Mammaplasty
(Breast Reduction)
If you are a woman with overly large breasts, breast
reduction may be a tremendously life enhancing option.  
Having the procedure will give you far more than just
smaller, firmer breasts.  You will also get significant relief
from many physical and emotional discomforts, a new
sense of freedom in your exercise and physical activity, and
the ability to wear a greater variety of clothing styles.  In
fact of all the procedures performed in plastic surgery,
breast reduction ranks among the highest in patient
satisfaction.

Women with very large, pendulous breasts may experience
a variety of medical problems caused by the excessive
weight; from back and neck pain and skin irritation to
skeletal deformities and breathing problems. Bra straps
may leave indentations in their shoulders. And unusually
large breasts can make a woman-or a teenage girl-feel
extremely self-conscious.

Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammaplasty, is
a procedure that removes excess breast tissue and skin,
making your breasts more proportional to the rest of your
body.  The areola (the pigmented skin surrounding the
nipple) may be reduced and repositioned as well.
