Breast Reduction

What is breast reduction surgery?

Breast reduction surgery (reduction mammaplasty) removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body and to alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts.

Where is it performed?

Breast reduction surgery is routinely performed on an out-patient basis in a fully accredited nearby outpatient surgery center or at a local hospital surgery center with an overnight stay for observation.

Anesthesia and Medication

Breast reduction surgery requires the use of general anesthesia.
