What Breast Reduction Surgery Involves?

Breast reduction, also called reduction mammoplasty, reshapes the breast to a size that suits your body and relieves the strain that large breasts place on the back, neck, and shoulders. Dr. Dhruv Chavan removes surplus glandular tissue, fat, and skin, then lifts and reshapes the remaining breast.

The technique is usually a vertical short-scar reduction, with an anchor technique used for larger reductions. Surgery is performed under general anaesthesia, most patients are discharged the next day, and the amount of tissue removed ranges from 200 grams in a small reduction to 2 kilograms or more in a large one. Dr DC also uses 3D body scanning to plan the procedure and set realistic expectations before surgery.
