We understand that a woman’s relationship with her breasts and how she feels about them is extremely important. Many women aren’t happy with their shape or size. They’re either too small or too big or too saggy. At Accent Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, we understand that there are many reasons why women might not be happy with their breasts, and having breasts that are too big is one of them.
More women are considering breast reduction surgery to change the various issues caused by disproportionately large breasts. Women who have breasts that are too large for their frame, often suffer from neck, back, and shoulder pain. They can also interfere with daily activities such as jogging or other sports. In addition, large breasts can also cause irritation on the underside of the breast.
What Physical Benefits Can I Expect?
A breast reduction can help alleviate neck, shoulder, and back pain. Apart from the obvious benefits that being pain-free brings, a reduction will allow one to get back into any physical activity that she hasn’t been able to enjoy.
Are There Any Other Benefits?
Apart from the improvements in health issues, a breast reduction can also improve aesthetic concerns. Some women choose to have this surgery because they feel self-conscious about their large breasts. With breast reduction surgery, we can decrease the size of your breasts with improved contour, frequently leading to an increased level of confidence.
How Long Is Recovery?
For all of the benefits you’ll receive with a breast reduction, recovery time is relatively short. For the first few days after surgery, you can expect to feel some pain and discomfort. You will be wearing a surgical bra during this time. You can return to work when you feel ready to do so, however, you should keep physical activity to a minimum.
Is A Breast Reduction Right For Me?
A breast reduction is a great option for any woman suffering from issues associated with having large breasts. If you’re suffering neck, back, and shoulder pain or your large breasts are interfering with your life, the surgery is definitely worth considering. For your safety, you must be in good general health and be a non-smoker to undergo this surgery. Although results vary, we have a very high patient satisfaction rate with bilateral breast reduction.
