Breast Reduction

Women with large breasts experience more than dissatisfaction with their body image, they may also experience physical pain and discomfort. Overly large breasts can cause pain and impair a woman's ability to lead an active life. The emotional discomfort and self-consciousness often associated with large pendulous breasts is as important for many women as the physical discomfort and pain.
Breast reduction surgery removes excess fat, glandular tissue and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion to a woman's body and to alleviate the discomfort associated with overly large breasts. It is generally considered a reconstructive procedure and in most cases will be covered by health insurance when done to relieve medical symptoms. It can be performed at any age, but is best performed when the breasts are fully developed.
