Breast Reduction by Liposuction

(Scarless Breast Reduction)

I find that women who seek breast reduction surgery really need it. Beyond basic proportional body image issues, other factors come into play such as back pain, breast pain, shoulder grooving and rashes. Any one of these complaints more than justifies the need to undergo this surgery. Like so many other breast procedures, breast reduction is associated with an extremely high satisfaction rate. I am amazed at the women I see of all different ages, but especially much older women who have suffered with this condition for years and finally realized that there is a safe and very artistic, aesthetic means to obtain a beautiful and natural and still fully functional reduction of the breasts with liposuction alone. I can help you with this.

 

Women seek this surgery to lift and reduce the breasts, alleviate symptoms, create a better shape, even up asymmetries in size and position, create a former and more youthful look, and to fit better in clothing. The breast and all the contents is essentially a surface structure of the female body. It is not closely related to muscle, tendon, bones, or other vital structures that may hurt when encountered in surgery. Therefore, surgery is comfortable. Some patients simply develop large oversized breasts. Other women experience stretching of skin over time and sagging from a heavy gland or massive weight loss and gains. So, the good news here is that in selected cases breast reduction can be performed by liposuction. This is a relatively new and innovative procedure. It depends on the fact that there is fat in the breast, some inherent elasticity in your skin, and not too large a size or sagging. Your nipples should be at or just slightly below the level of your breast crease for this to work. Patients in this certain favorable category are excellent candidates for breast reduction by liposuction alone. My patients call this scarless breast reduction because there are only a few very small incisions. Then there is removal of the fat by thin tubes (cannulas), and your skin shrinks down around the reduced fatty framework. There is no removal of your breast gland so your sensation and breast feeding functions are preserved. The surgery is safe and predictable. Virtually immediately after surgery you see your result and it just gets better in time. There are almost no stitches; the recovery is rapid, with return to work the next day, and to some physical exercise within the first week.

 

Surgery to reduce the breast is very common in my practice. I have performed dozens of breast reduction by liposuction procedures with consistently beautiful and natural results. I have special expertise in this procedure and spend a great deal of time discussing your anatomy, making markings and measurements, listening to your expectations, and interpreting for you what your anatomy and body will allow me to do in a safe and predictable way. In addition, I build a system into every surgery that, initially, allows you to recover much quicker and, secondly, serves to preserve your surgical results. This system includes a special diet, vitamins, supplements, special garments, breast exercises, skin products, physical training and knowing what to avoid. Together, all of this allows me to create results that are consistently very beautiful, quick to heal, exceptionally natural, and with minimal incisions, especially in an area of such great importance to women. I am delighted to surgically provide you with such a profound body image change, and one that has consistently so pleased my patients and changed their lives.
