Who is a candidate for breast reduction?
When the breast interferes with normal daily activity or with exercise, a woman is a good candidate for the procedure. For some women, the large size of the breast may make them feel unattractive or affect their self-confidence.
At what age can breast reduction be considered?
Breast reduction can be performed at any age following puberty.
What is the result of breast reduction?
Freedom from health problems associated with excessively large breasts is one result of the procedure. We also hear from patients that there is a more attractive, contoured appearance to the breasts and their self-image is improved. It is very important for the patient to determine in advance the size, shape and contour that she desires. Often in discussions with the surgeon and cosmetic coordinator, the candidate for breast reduction will be encouraged to look for pictures that reflect her desired result.
What should be expected during the procedure?
During the breast reduction procedure, incisions outline the area of skin, breast tissue and fat to be removed and the new position for the nipple. Skin formerly located above the nipple is brought down and together to reshape the breast. Sutures close the incisions, giving the breast its new contour.
What should be expected following the surgery?
Following your breast reduction, scars around and below the areola, below it and in the crease under the breast will be permanent. Clothing can easily conceal these. Because the larger, heavier breasts often made the woman feel self-conscious, following surgery there is typically a sense of comfort and an improved self-image. The estimated fee for breast reduction is approximately $7400. This fee includes physician, anesthesia, and facility fees. We offer several different financing options for your cosmetic surgery. We also accept visa, matercard, discover and american expresscredit cards. If at anytime you have questions, call us at 317-848-5512 or toll free at 877-655-8522 or click here to email us.
