Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty)

Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin to achieve a breast size more proportionate to the body. It's commonly sought by women with overly large breasts (macromastia) who experience physical discomfort including chronic neck, shoulder, and back pain, skin irritation, poor posture, and limitations in physical activity. Beyond physical relief, breast reduction can significantly improve self-image and quality of life. The procedure can be performed on both women and men with gynecomastia (enlarged male breast tissue).
