Breast Reduction for Treating Macromastia

If you struggle with excessive growth of your breasts, otherwise known as macromastia, you know what a burden large breasts can be. Macromastia can lead to problems with your posture, as well as chronic pain in your neck, shoulders, and back. Big breasts can force you to carry around extra weight on your chest all the time. While many women may think they want larger breasts, the situation is different when the breasts are too large. You can solve your problems with macromastia with breast reduction surgery. Dr. J. Timothy Katzen can help you to bring your bust down to a size that is more manageable.

Why Consider Breast Reduction Surgery?

Breast reduction surgery can be helpful for cosmetic reasons if you are not happy with the way your bust looks. However, breast reduction can be justified as necessary if you have macromastia. When an excessively large bust leads to health problems, such as severe neck, upper back and shoulder pain, you are medically justified in considering breast reduction surgery. It will help you to trim down your breasts to take the pressure off your back, your neck, and your shoulders. Imagine being able to stand up straight once again because your bust is not weighing you down. You will be able to wear smaller bras and shirts, making you feel like you have a trimmer figure. Breast reduction surgery can do wonders for you.

What Happens during a Breast Reduction Procedure for Macromastia?

When you choose to have your breasts reduced, Dr. Katzen will begin by determining the ideal size for your bust. Excess breast tissue and fat will be removed, reducing the size of your breasts. When all is said and done, you will feel better. You can embrace your new figure as you have more freedom in movement. You can finally say goodbye to that burden you have been carrying for too long.

What Can You Expect after Breast Reduction Surgery?

Once you are in recovery, you will be given a supportive bra that acts as a compression garment. This post-breast reduction bra will restrict the movement of your breasts. At the same time, this special bra will also reduce any swelling, making you more comfortable. Be sure to follow any instructions given to you by Dr. Katzen. You need to take care of your new breasts. Keep a close watch on your incisions and make sure the incisions stay clean. Limit your physical activity to avoid injury. Your breasts will be tender for some time following your breast reduction.
