When breast reshaping is mentioned, most people presume that women would like larger boobs.
And it is true that breast enlargement remains the most well known and popular cosmetic surgery procedure carried out in the UK.
However, as people have become more aware of the diversity of cosmetic surgery available, so breast reduction operations are also on the increase.
The procedure is also known as a reduction mammoplasty and is a straightforward concept – to reduce the size of the breasts by removing excess fat, tissue and skin.
Cosmetic surgery experts Why Go Abroad said patients have breast reductions for many reasons, the main ones being to:
- Alleviate discomfort and health problems caused by large boobs (which can include significant back, neck and shoulder pain)
- Create a more flattering figure by making your breasts proportionate with your frame and body size
- Boost your self-confidence
Some women have also had a breast reduction to improve their comfort – and in some cases performance! – during sports activities and even for the pleasure of being able to buy sexy bras, rather than firm support underwear.
What does a breast reduction involve?
The procedure is carried out under general anaesthetic and, once the excess fat and tissue has been removed, your surgeon will reshape the breast and reposition the nipple to create a higher, natural bust.
The results are clearly shown in these before and after pictures from Why Go Abroad, which will provide specialist pre-treatment consultation and post-operation aftercare to ensure your wellbeing throughout the process.
