What is a Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction, also called reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce size while improving shape and proportion. It’s one of the most impactful procedures we perform—many patients report immediate relief from physical discomfort and newfound freedom in how they move, exercise, and dress. Reduction works best for women who experience back, neck, or shoulder pain from large breasts; struggle with rashes or skin irritation beneath the breasts; or simply want a smaller, more proportional size. Every reduction is customized to your body, desired cup size, and lifestyle.

BEFORE YOU DECIDE

An informed decision is a confident one

What Should You Know Before Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction is transformative, and patients who are well-informed have the best outcomes. Here’s what to expect:

01

Nipple sensation may change temporarily 

Some numbness or altered sensation is common after surgery. This typically resolves within weeks to months as nerves heal.

02

Size reduction is permanent (usually)

The tissue removed won’t grow back. If you later choose to enlarge your breasts, augmentation is an option.

03

Breastfeeding may be affected

While some patients breastfeed successfully after reduction, the procedure may affect milk production. Discuss your family planning with your surgeon.

04

Results continue improving for months

Initial results appear within 2-3 weeks, but the final shape develops over 2-3 months as swelling resolves.

05

Insurance may cover this procedure

Unlike cosmetic breast surgery, reduction is often covered by insurance when it alleviates documented physical symptoms. We help navigate your insurance requirements.
