Overly large breasts can cause cosmetic concerns, but they may also contribute to physical discomfort, pain, and difficulty with daily activities.
Many women experience back, neck, and shoulder pain, skin irritation, and posture issues due to the weight of heavy breasts. Fortunately, breast reduction (or reduction mammaplasty) can relieve these symptoms. This breast surgery also creates a more proportionate and balanced breast size.
At Ohio Clinic for Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery, women can turn to Michael H. Wojtanowski, M.D., F.A.C.S., a board-certified plastic surgeon. Highly respected throughout the Cleveland area, Dr. Wojtanowski combines surgical skill, an artistic eye, and a commitment to patient safety to help women feel more comfortable and confident in their bodies.
What Is Breast Reduction Surgery?
Breast reduction surgery is designed to remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve a breast size that is better suited to a patient’s frame. The procedure reduces weight and volume while also reshaping the breasts for improved contour and symmetry. In many cases, the areolas can be reduced and repositioned for a more youthful, lifted look as well.
Every breast reduction surgery is tailored to the individual. During your consultation, Dr. Wojtanowski will discuss your concerns, medical history, and goals to determine the best surgical approach.
Benefits of Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery offers transformative results that extend beyond aesthetics. It can:
- Relieve physical discomfort: Reduces strain on the neck, back, and shoulders.
- Improve posture: Lessens the physical weight that can cause slouching or hunching.
- Increase activity levels: Makes exercise and daily activities more comfortable.
- Enhance body proportions: Creates a breast size more in balance with the rest of the body.
- Boost confidence: Helps many women feel more confident in clothing and overall appearance.
Breast Reduction Recovery
Most patients return to work and normal activities within two weeks. However, you’ll need to avoid strenuous exercise for about four to six weeks.
Will Breast Reduction Leave Scars?
Incisions are a necessary part of a breast reduction surgery, but Dr. Wojtanowski uses techniques to minimize visible scarring. Scars will also fade significantly over time.
Will My Results Be Permanent?
Yes, the reduction in breast size is long-lasting. However, factors like weight changes, pregnancy, or natural aging can affect the results.
