Reduce The Volume of Your Breasts

A breast reduction (also called reduction mammaplasty) is a surgical procedure to reduce breast volume. If you experience any discomfort or unhappiness from excessively large breasts, a breast reduction may be exactly what you’re looking for. Some women seek a breast reduction for more than aesthetic reasons. Breasts that are too large and heavy may cause pain and shoulder strain, or even cause a “widow’s hump” from the effects on your posture. Please also see Male Breast Reduction.

Breast reductions and other types of breast surgery are available at our cosmetic surgery centers in Nashville and Memphis. Each of our board-certified plastic surgeons has over 20 years of experience with breast reductions, lifts, augmentations, and more.

What can I expect?

During a personal consultation with our plastic surgeon, you will discuss the goals for your breast reduction procedure. He will take into account whether you experience any physical symptoms caused by the size of your breasts.

A breast reduction is a surgical procedure with the same level of invasiveness as breast implants or a breast lift. It is performed under IV sedation to ensure maximum comfort and a fast recovery. During the procedure, the surgeon removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin to help you achieve an aesthetically pleasing breast size that is in proportion with your body.

A breast reduction takes 2-3 hours, with a recovery time of 3-5 days for regular daily activities and 2 weeks before any strenuous activities.

Each patient is unique. What your treatment will look like is determined by you and the plastic surgeon who you will meet with in a personal consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

A breast reduction is designed to be permanent, so it is important to weigh all options before you have the procedure. However, breast volume can and does change during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. Most likely your breast size will temporarily increase and then drop back to the size after your reduction. To learn more, also see Breast Reduction and Male Breast Reduction.

This is a valid question, and much writing has been dedicated to the topic. It has also evolved over time. Today’s surgery techniques are designed to preserve lactation functions, so that breastfeeding is likely not affected after a reduction. However, if you are planning to breastfeed, you should discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

A breast reduction procedure can be performed at any age. However, it is best to wait until your breasts are fully developed to ensure the best results.

Will I Be Able to Breastfeed After a Breast Reduction?

Women who are unhappy with the large size of their breasts undergo breast reduction surgery to remove excess fat, glandular tissue and skin to achieve a breast size that is more in proportion with their body. But is a breast reduction right for you if you are not done having children or haven’t even thought about pregnancy yet? Should you worry about your ability to breastfeed your future children?

My Breasts Are Different Sizes – What Should I do?

Having different sized breasts is completely normal. If you are dissatisfied with two different looking breasts, you have several breast surgery options to address this, including fat transfer to breast, breast implants, or a breast reduction. While it’s not really possible to attain two identical breasts, breast surgery can do a great job of evening out their size and shape to be aesthetically pleasing.
