Most patients who previously suffered from back or neck pain will feel immediate relief as the weight in their breasts is reduced.

There is no ideal breast size for breast reduction surgery. Your aesthetic and medical aspirations are important in deciding the size of the breasts after reduction. The original size of the breast, and the patient’s age, height, weight, and body structure should also be taken into consideration. In general, a reduction of 1 or 2 sizes may be ideal. The whole process is evaluated together with the doctor.

As with any surgery involving incisions breast reduction surgery is a scarred surgery. In the early postoperative period, the scars may be darker and more prominent. Within 6-12 months the scars will become quite faint and close to the skin color. The scar of breast reduction surgery may become too faint to be noticed in some patients.
