If you believe your breasts are too large in proportion to your body, breast reduction surgery (Mammaplasty) can give you a trimmer but still curvy figure. Smaller breasts reduce the pressure on your back and shoulder muscles, and patients often find relief from back pain and other discomforts such as skin rashes. A breast reduction will also make it easier to find flattering clothes and lingerie, and can improve the overall appearance of your figure by making you look more balanced.

Breast reduction is usually an outpatient procedure, and takes 2 or more hours to perform. During the procedure, the breast is lifted to a more natural position, and the nipple is often repositioned to fit the new shape of the breast. For women who want to consider breastfeeding after a breast reduction, new techniques can be utilized to minimize harm to the milk ducts. Recovery takes 1 to 2 weeks, and strenuous physical activity can be resumed in about a month.
