About the breast reduction.

Introduction to Breast Reduction Procedure Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure designed to reduce the size and weight of large breasts, helping to alleviate discomfort such as back pain, shoulder pain, and neck strain. In addition to improving physical health, a breast reduction can enhance the overall appearance and proportion of the breasts, resulting in a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing silhouette. At our clinic, both Dr. O.P. Simmons, board-certified plastic surgeons, offer personalized breast reduction surgeries tailored to each patient’s unique goals and anatomy. Their expertise ensures that patients not only achieve the desired reduction but also maintain natural and beautiful results. What is Breast Reduction? Breast reduction surgery involves the removal of excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve a breast size that is more proportionate to the body. This procedure is ideal for women who have large, heavy breasts that cause physical discomfort or hinder daily activities. Breast reduction also reshapes the breasts for a more youthful and lifted appearance.

The Beautyland method.

How the procedure is performed, step by step.

Incision.

Make incisions around the areola and potentially down to the breast crease (depending on the extent of reduction).

Remove.

Remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce the overall size and weight of the breasts.

Reposition.

Reposition the nipple and areola to a more natural height.

Reshape.

Reshape the remaining breast tissue to achieve a firmer and more proportionate appearance.

Closure.

Close the incisions with sutures and apply dressings to aid in the healing process.

Why patients choose this procedure.

Resolves chronic back, neck and shoulder pain caused by disproportionate breast weight.
Most patients qualify for insurance coverage when a minimum amount of tissue is removed: we help with the paperwork.
Reshapes the breast at the same time as reducing it; you do not just become smaller, you become balanced.
Bra strap grooves, rashes under the breast and posture problems typically resolve within weeks.
Most women describe it as the surgery that changed their lives the most: beyond cosmetic.

Every breast reduction begins with a conversation, never a technique. We do not operate without first understanding what the patient wants to feel afterwards: that is where a good outcome starts.
