Live your Breast life answers to your Breast reduction questions

Overview of Breast Reduction

Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure that reduces the size of overly large breasts. This procedure can help alleviate physical symptoms such as neck and back pain, as well as improve self-esteem and confidence. At the New York Liposuction Center, our board-certified plastic surgeon dr. arnold breitbart specializes in breast reduction surgeries to help patients achieve their desired results. During the consultation process, Dr. Breitbart will discuss your concerns and goals for the surgery in order to develop an individualized treatment plan tailored to meet your needs.

Benefits of Breast Reduction

Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess fat, skin and glandular tissue from the breasts. It is designed to reduce the size and reshape the breasts for a more balanced and proportionate look. At New York Liposuction Center, our board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Arnold Breitbart specializes in breast reduction surgery and has helped many women achieve their desired look.

Physical Benefits

One of the main benefits of breast reduction surgery is its ability to improve physical comfort. Women with overly large breasts often experience chronic neck, back and shoulder pain due to excessive weight on the chest area. Reducing the size of your breasts can help alleviate this discomfort and enable you to lead an active lifestyle without any restrictions. In addition, it can also help improve posture by removing excess weight from the chest area and providing better balance between the upper body and lower body.

Emotional Benefits

In addition to physical benefits, breast reduction surgery can also provide emotional benefits by helping boost self-confidence and self-esteem. Many women with overly large breasts feel uncomfortable or self-conscious about their appearance when wearing certain clothing or swimwear. By reducing the size of your breasts, you can feel more confident about how you look in different types of clothing or swimwear. Additionally, breast reduction surgery can also help improve your quality of life by giving you more freedom to participate in activities without worrying about discomfort or embarrassment due to overly large breasts.

Cosmetic Benefits

Finally, breast reduction surgery can also provide cosmetic benefits by creating a more balanced and proportionate silhouette. The procedure can remove excess fat, skin and glandular tissue from the breasts while reshaping them for a more aesthetically pleasing look that complements your figure. In addition, it can also help create a more youthful appearance by lifting drooping or sagging breasts caused by age or pregnancy.

Breast reduction surgery provides physical, emotional and cosmetic benefits. Improves physical comfort, boosts self-confidence, creates balanced silhouette and more youthful appearance.

Potential Risks and Complications

Breast reduction is a safe and effective procedure with minimal complications when performed by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Arnold Breitbart at the New York Liposuction Center. However, it is important to understand the potential risks associated with any kind of surgery.

General Risks

The most common general risks associated with breast reduction surgery include infection, excessive bleeding, poor healing of incisions, adverse reaction to anesthesia, blood clots in the legs or lungs, and fluid accumulation. These risks are rare but can be serious if they occur.

Specific Risks

Specific risks associated with breast reduction surgery include changes in sensation in the nipples or breasts; asymmetry of the breasts; scarring; recurrence of sagging; and inadequate correction of sagging. In some cases, a second procedure may be necessary to achieve desired results.

Long-term Risks

There are also long-term risks associated with breast reduction surgery that should be considered before undergoing the procedure. These include difficulty breastfeeding after surgery; loss of nipple sensation; and changes in shape or size over time due to age, gravity, pregnancy, weight gain or loss, etc.

It is important to discuss all potential risks and complications with your board-certified plastic surgeon before deciding if breast reduction is right for you. At New York Liposuction Center, we take patient safety seriously and strive to ensure our patients understand all aspects of their procedure before making any decisions about their care.

Preparing for Surgery

At the New York Liposuction Center, we want to ensure that our patients have the best experience possible when undergoing breast reduction surgery. To help make this happen, we provide detailed instructions on how to prepare for the procedure.

Before Surgery Appointment

Prior to your breast reduction surgery, you will need to schedule an appointment with Dr. Arnold Breitbart. During this appointment, he will discuss all aspects of the procedure in detail and answer any questions you may have. He will also review your medical history and perform a physical exam to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

Pre-Operative Instructions

You will be given a list of instructions to follow prior to your surgery. This may include avoiding certain medications and supplements, quitting smoking or drinking alcohol, and not eating or drinking anything after midnight the night before the procedure. You should also arrange for someone to drive you home from the facility after the surgery is complete.

Day of Surgery

On the day of your breast reduction surgery, it is important that you arrive at the facility on time and wearing loose-fitting clothing that can be easily removed. You may also be asked to bring any necessary paperwork or documents with you as well as a form of payment. Once inside, you will be taken into a private room where Dr. Breitbart will go over any last details before beginning the procedure.

We strive to make sure our patients feel comfortable and confident throughout their entire journey with us—from preparing for their breast reduction surgery all the way through recovery afterwards. We look forward to helping you achieve your desired results!

Recovery After Surgery

At the New York Liposuction Center, our board-certified plastic surgeon dr. arnold breitbart and his team of medical professionals are dedicated to helping you achieve your desired results with breast reduction surgery. While recovery is an important part of the process, it is also essential to understand what will be required for a successful outcome.

Initial Recovery Period

Immediately following breast reduction surgery, patients should expect some swelling and bruising in the area. This is normal and should resolve itself within a few weeks. Patients may also experience some soreness and discomfort at the site of the incisions. Pain medication can be prescribed to help alleviate these symptoms.

Activity Restrictions

It is important to follow all activity restrictions provided by Dr. Breitbart and his team. Patients should avoid any strenuous activities that involve lifting or pushing for at least two weeks after surgery. Additionally, patients may need to limit their physical activity until they have been cleared by their doctor.

Follow-Up Appointments

Patients will need to attend regular follow-up appointments with Dr. Breitbart and his team in order to monitor their progress during recovery. During these appointments, any questions or concerns can be addressed so that patients can feel confident that they are on track for a successful outcome from their procedure.

Long-Term Care

Once the initial recovery period has passed, patients should continue to take care of themselves by eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly in order to maintain their new figure. Wearing supportive bras can also help reduce any potential discomfort or sagging over time.

We strive to provide our patients with the highest quality care before, during, and after their breast reduction procedure. Our team of experts is here to answer any questions you may have about your recovery process so that you can feel confident in your results.
