Reduction mammoplasty is capable of helping to eliminate many of the uncomfortable side effects that come along with excessively big breasts. Typically, women will choose to have their breast reduction surgery to rid themselves of the painful and annoying medical conditions that can come along with large breasts, instead of for cosmetic reasons. Neck and back aches, skin irritation, and breathing problems are just some of the problems that accompany large breasts.

The goal of a cosmetic surgeon for breast reduction surgery is to decrease the size of a woman's breasts and create a more aesthetically pleasing and healthier size of breasts. They will also create the most natural looking results that they can. The cosmetic surgeon will remove excess skin, breast tissue, and fat while repositioning the nipple during the two to four hour surgery.

Cosmetic surgeons typically recommend waiting until after breast development has ceased, even though breast reduction procedures can be performed at any age. Breast feeding and childbirth can have unpredictable and significant effects on the shape and size of a woman's breasts. Regardless, many women choose to undergo breast reduction surgery before they have children. They often feel that they can address any future changes later. You must make sure to inform your plastic surgeon if you plan on breast feeding in the future.

During the consultation with your plastic surgeon, you will likely be asked about the breast shape that you desire as well as anything else that you would like to see improved about your breasts. This will help your cosmetic surgeon to fully understand your expectations. He will then be able to determine whether these expectations can be realistically achieved.

Three incisions are involved in the most common method of breast reduction. One incision will be made around the areola, another will run vertically from the bottom of the areola to the crease underneath the woman's breast, and the last incision will follow the natural curve of the woman's breast crease. Once the cosmetic surgeon has removed the extra skin, fat, and breast tissue, he or she will shift the areola and nipple to a higher position. In large breasts, the areola has usually been stretched, so it will also be reduced in size. Skin that was previously located above the nipple will be brought together and down to reshape the woman's breast. Under the arm, the contour may be improved through the use of liposuction.

For the best results and proper healing, proper aftercare is a must. Your cosmetic surgeon will provide you with guidelines for you to follow after your surgery. These will include both specific and basic things. By following them you will achieve optimal results.
