Overly large breasts can have painful consequences, leading to a lifetime of back and neck pain, deep grooves in your shoulders from bra straps, or irritation, rashes, or infections. A breast reduction can give your breasts a balanced appearance, alleviate pain, and dramatically improve your quality of life and confidence.

  • Breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of the breasts to create a more proportional aesthetic.
  • While some women may only be interested in reducing the size of the breasts, breast reduction may also change the shape, projection of the breasts, and the areolas' placement. This custom procedure will reshape the breast tissues to a rounded and natural look, creating a harmonious balance for your figure.
  • Your breast reduction can be done via a traditional surgical excision, or if your unique anatomy allows, with liposuction.
  • Breast reduction surgery is unique to each patient. In your consultation, you will discuss the best approach with Dr. Zaluzec. Regardless of technique, excess breast tissue will be removed to reshape your breasts.
  • Surgery is done under general anesthesia and typically requires about three to four hours to perform.
  • Breast surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, allowing you to recover in the comfort of your own home.
  • Dr. Zaluzec and her team will be available to you throughout your recovery. You can expect to be seen one to three days after surgery to ensure your recovery is both smooth and successful.
  • In the early stages of recovery, you will have pain medication to help limit discomfort and you will wear a supportive surgical bra to protect your breast tissue.
  • Dr. Zaluzec will discuss specific activity limitations with you during your consultation and recovery process. Generally, patients need to avoid strenuous exercises and lifting weights for four to six weeks.
