The Benefits of Breast Reduction Surgery
There are many reasons why patients would like to have a breast reduction. For some women, the large size of their breasts can create chronic shoulder, neck, or back pain and they are seeking relief from this discomfort. The removal of excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin can create lighter, smaller, and firmer breasts. Many women feel as though their breasts are disproportionate with the rest of their body; a breast reduction offers these women the chance to feel more proportional and balanced.
Often women with large breasts have difficulty in finding comfortable bras or swimwear, and a breast reduction can enhance the comfort and fit of all of their clothes. The size and shape of the areolas and nipples can also be addressed during the reduction mammoplasty surgery. Finally, some women experience asymmetry in their breasts, and Dr. Yegiyants can correct this during the breast reduction surgery. In general, women who have had a reduction mammoplasty performed by Dr. Yegiyants experience enhanced confidence from having more firm, lifted, and proportionate breasts.
