Reduction Mammoplasty, or breast reduction, removes excess breast tissue and skin to achieve a smaller, firmer breast contour. This procedure relieves discomfort—such as back, neck, and shoulder pain—and helps achieve breast proportions that better fit your body frame.

Your Reduction Mammoplasty journey begins with a detailed consultation and measurements. Here’s what typically happens:

Administration of general anesthesia
Removal of excess breast tissue, fat, and skin
Lift and reshaping of the remaining breast tissue
Repositioning of the nipple‑areola complex
Closure of incisions and application of dressings
The procedure takes 2–4 hours, depending on the amount of reduction and lift required.
