How big your breasts will be after a
breast reduction surgery depends on how big they are now and how big you want them to be. When you have your initial consultation with the doctor prior to the surgery you both will decide how big or small you want them to be. The biggest concern is to eliminate your pain and bring you to a normal lifestyle. However, you also still want your breasts to look natural after the procedure.
What happens during breast reduction surgery?
When you have breast reduction surgery the doctor will cut from underneath the breasts where the crease is so it is not noticeable and between the breasts. If your breasts are too large to the point the fatty tissue to be removed is excessive then the doctor may be required to remove the entire nipple. The risks associated with the surgery usually involve removing the nipple. However, to properly perform the breast reduction surgery the doctor may have to do so. The doctor will suction out the excess fat inside of both breasts proportionately so they match and look more natural. When the procedure is complete the doctor will stitch you back up.
How much does breast reduction surgery cost?
The cost of breast reduction may be around $5,000 to $10,000 depending on how large your breasts really are. One thing to consider is talking to your doctor about the insurance company paying for the surgery. Many insurance companies will pay for breast reduction if it is causing a serious problem with living a normal lifestyle and causing too much pain.
Why should I consider breast reduction surgery?
