Breast Reduction Surgery at MAXiM Breast Surgery in NY

They say if you have overly large breasts, getting a breast reduction may help alleviate physical and emotional discomfort. A breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that eliminates excess skin on the breasts, fat, and mammary gland tissue, to reduce and improve the shape and overall size of the patient’s breasts. The main purpose of the surgery is to decrease the volume and weight of the breasts to make them more proportionate with the rest of the body. After surgery, patients are generally less self-conscious, and their confidence and self-esteem go up.

If you have one or more of the following issues because of your breast size, breast reduction surgery may be right for you:

• Back pain
• Neck pain
• Bra strap indentations on the shoulders
• Difficulty or pain when participating in physical activities
• Skin irritation around or between the breasts
• Skeletal deformities
• Breathing problems
• Self-image issues
• Unwanted attention
