Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is an increasingly common procedure as women as recognising that having large breasts can be detrimental to their health, confidence and self-esteem.

Whilst the female breast has represented femininity in all societies through the generations, in those women who have very large breasts, what may be thought by others to be a blessing may in fact be a curse. This procedure has dramatically improved the life of many women.

Every woman is an individual and while some women want, “them all off” some simply want to be “more in proportion” or “nice.” Breast reduction is an appropriate solution for many women with large breasts. The end result may be further enhanced with the addition of the breast lift procedure. Breast lift increases firmness and raises the positioning of the breasts. This may be necessary is the augmentation moves the breast positioning away from the optimal area. The aim for us as surgeons is to make sure you look as natural as possible while still acheiving your desired end result.

From experience, we have found that women who are well informed and realistic about Breast Reduction and Breast Lift, with almost no exceptions, are extremely pleased with the procedures.
