What Is Reduction Mammaplasty?

Oversized breasts can be a burden. Many women find that reduction mammaplasty, otherwise known as a breast reduction, is a welcome solution. This procedure is used to remove excess breast tissue, reducing the breasts in volume.

Every day, women with excess breast tissue experience emotional and physical issues as a result of their condition. Activities like exercising and playing sports are difficult and uncomfortable, as is wearing certain articles of clothing. Back, neck, and shoulder pain are constant companions. Self-consciousness and body issues are also common for women with oversized breasts. Reduction mammaplasty can make everyday life easier.
