Large breasts can cause pain, discomfort and a lot of insecurity for many women. Those with excessively large breasts not only suffer from shoulder, neck and back pain, but they can also struggle with exercise, clothes that won’t fit and irritation underneath their breasts.
There are several different causes behind overly large breasts. These include genetics, obesity, certain pharmaceutical drugs, pregnancy, or hormonal shifts and imbalances. At PERK Plastic Surgery, Dr. Michelle Lee can present you with the safest options for reducing breast size during your private consultation. With her experience performing life-changing breast procedures, she can fully understand the many difficulties that overly large breasts may cause.
A breast reduction is performed to create more balanced, proportionate breasts that are no longer a source of insecurity for the patient. Dr. Lee will create a small incision through which she will remove excess fatty tissue and skin, contouring the breasts to appear smaller. The nipples may also be repositioned during a breast reduction to help achieve a comprehensive improvement in the appearance of the chest.
Liposuction is commonly used in combination with traditional breast reduction techniques, but in some cases, a smaller reduction of the breasts can be accomplished using liposuction alone. The benefits of choosing an all liposuction breast reduction procedure include minimal scarring, easier recovery and a lower risk of wound healing complications.
“Dr. Michelle Lee is wonderful with her patients. She takes her time understanding their needs. She explains and put you at ease. On the day of surgery, she was great. I recommend her to anyone.”
