 | In contrast to the mastopexy (breast lift) which only removes the skin, the reduction
mammaplasty (breast reduction) removes skin and underlying breast tissue. Breast
reduction surgery is usually done to improve appearance and alleviate symptoms
associated with large breasts and generally improve breast health. As with the
lifts, the more tissue that is removed the more scarring that is necessary.
These scars are on the lower surface of the breasts and are more accepted by
patients that require this procedure. Breast reduction surgery is performed under general anesthesia. | | | | | | | | |
"My body image changed dramatically after a breast reduction/uplift by a
brilliant surgeon, Dr. Gloria Thomas. I was so pleased with the results
of this procedure that it gave me the incentive to improve other areas
of my body through diet and exercise. Dr. Thomas and her staff provide
exemplary pre- and post-surgery care."
