Permanently Beautiful

There are many reasons women decide to have breast reduction surgery, otherwise known as breast reduction mammoplasty, but in general, the procedure is performed is the negative physical effects carrying large breasts can have.  Carrying a large amount of weight in the top upper half of your body can cause physical ailments such as back pain, but disproportionately large breasts can also be damaging to self esteem, making it hard for some women to feel comfortable in their clothing and in their own skin.

No matter what your reason for wanting is breast reduction surgery, make sure that you research the procedure and all possible side effects beforehand.  You should consider your future ability to lactate.  Research shows that breast reduction surgery may impair a woman’s milk supply, in fact, all breast surgeries may impair a woman’s ability to lactate.  Therefore women who have to have breast surgery but want to breast feed later may need to take steps before the baby is born to maximize it.

There are several different methods in which breast reduction surgery can be performed including liposuction, inferior pedicle, periareolar round block, central mound, periareolar double skin, superior pedicle, and free nipple graft.  Each procedure can also leave a scarring, so surgery candidates should always plan for scar camouflage and areola pigmentation ahead of time.
