Overly large breasts can be inconvenient and uncomfortable for a woman to carry. A breast reduction works to relieve this discomfort by reducing the size of the breasts. This surgery can help your breasts become more proportionate to your body frame and fit more comfortably.

Some women choose breast reduction surgery for cosmetic reasons, while others find breast reduction surgery necessary to improve their health. Large breasts can often result in various health problems, such as neck pain, back pain, and poor posture. Whether you are looking to improve your breasts’ cosmetic look or ease your comfort levels, Dr. Kimberly Henry offers breast reduction to her San Francisco patients.

What Are the Benefits of Breast Reduction Surgery?

SMALLER, MORE COMFORTABLE BREASTS

Large breasts can be inconvenient in many aspects of life and make daily activities more challenging to perform. Women with overly large breasts may also find it challenging to find clothing that fits comfortably. Breast reduction surgery works to improve daily life by reducing breasts to a more comfortable and convenient size.

IMPROVED SELF-IMAGE

Many women wish to receive breast reduction surgery to improve their self-image. Overly large breasts can cause the body to appear larger and make it difficult to fit in some clothes. Breast reduction surgery reduces breast size, creating a slimmer figure that increases self-confidence.

ALLEVIATION OF PAIN & DISCOMFORT

Large breasts are known to cause a variety of health problems. Women with large breasts often experience:

• Back pain
• Neck pain
• Shoulder pain
• Pain while exercising

Breast reduction surgery can alleviate the pain associated with large breasts and allow you to move more comfortably.

What Are Your Concerns With Breast Reduction Surgery?

Recovery

Your full breast reduction surgery recovery lasts anywhere from three to four weeks. After your breast reduction surgery, you may experience bruising and swelling for a few days. Pain can be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. The bandages and gauze will be removed after a few days, and you will switch to a surgical bra. The surgical bra will help protect your breasts while they are healing.

Normal daily activities and exercise can typically be resumed after a few weeks.

Scars

With this type of procedure, scarring is inevitable. The extent of scarring will depend on the type of incision used and your body’s predisposition to scarring. Dr. Henry will try to make the incisions as discreet as possible. Scars will fade over time.

Cost

Breast reduction costs will depend on the location of the practice, surgeon fees, facility fees, and anesthesia fees. The cost will also vary between patients depending on their individual needs for the procedure. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Henry to determine the specific cost of your procedure.

Pain

General anesthesia will be used during your procedure to ensure that you are comfortable and do not feel any pain. You may feel pain during recovery, but this can be alleviated by medication prescribed by Dr. Henry.
