 The Goals of Breast Reduction, include;
• To reduce your breasts to a size that is in a better proportion to the rest of your body, especially to your shoulders, as abdominal fat can be modified.
• To obtain a good lasting shape with fullness superiorly and medially.
• To place the nipple / areola complex in the correct position, equidistant from the midline and at the apex of the breast mound.
• To correct ptosis.
• To improve symmetry if asymmetry presents.
• To keep scars to a minimum or hidden on the under surface of the breast. If there is a tendency to form thick (hypertrophic) scars or keloid scars, silica gel sheeting can be applied continuously after healing has occurred.
• To maintain normal function with normal (or improved) sensitivity of the nipple / areola complex and the possibility of being able to breastfeed, even if in reduced amounts.
• To feel more comfortable, find it easier to buy a well-fitting bra, and to feel more confident.
