Breast Reduction Candidates
Breast reduction is recommended for patients with disproportionately large breasts who experience pain, discomfort, or feelings of self-consciousness in regard to their breast size. Although breast reduction is most commonly performed on females, certain men may be candidates for the procedure as well. In order for the surgery to be effective, it is important that the breasts be fully developed prior to surgery. As with other surgeries, patients must be in good general health before undergoing the breast reduction procedure. During a consultation, Dr. Passaretti discusses each patient's medical history as well as a proposed treatment plan and expectations for the outcome of surgery.
Breast Reduction Surgery
Breast reduction surgery is an individualized cosmetic plastic surgery, which involves the removal of breast skin and tissue to reduce the size of the breast. While the specifics of each procedure vary according to each individual's goals, the general steps of the procedure remain the same. Dr. Passaretti first makes an incision around the areola. The size and exact location of the incision depends on the amount of tissue that is being removed. After excess skin and tissue are excised, Dr. Passaretti sculpts the remaining tissue into a smaller, more flattering shape. As a skilled cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Passaretti is consistently able to achieve shapely, natural-looking results for breast reduction patients.
Benefits of Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery offers a number of aesthetic and health-related benefits. Particularly heavy breasts can cause poor posture as well as pain in the back, shoulder, and neck. They can also make simple tasks such as exercising extremely difficult. Reducing the size of the breasts can drastically reduce pain and discomfort, helping patients feel more comfortable on a daily basis. Breast reduction surgery can also bring balance to a patient's figure, revealing an attractive, proportional look. These positive physical changes can significantly increase patient confidence.
