Breast Reduction

Many women request Breast Reduction because they're unhappy with the size, weight, and shape of their breasts; they find they attract unwanted attention and make them feel self-conscious about their bodies.

Breast size can be more than a cosmetic consideration. Big breasts are heavy, they can make the shoulders and neck ache, bra straps can dig in painfully, the skin in the creases can become red and irritated, and it can be a challenge to stay active and enjoy sports.

If your breasts are affecting your wellbeing, confidence, and ability to live a full and active life, the expert aesthetic surgeons at Bella Vou can help. Breast Reduction is an effective treatment for large and heavy breasts, decreasing physical discomfort, boosting self-esteem, and freeing you to wear the clothes you want.

Bella Vou provides a bespoke breast surgery service. The expert cosmetic surgeons will carefully assess your breasts, evaluate the proportions of your body, and discuss your preferences before customising the surgery to best meets your needs. The type of incision will depend on the look you want and the amount of tissue to be removed.

Breast Reduction is carried out under general anaesthetic. The surgeon will remove excess fat, skin, and glandular tissue from the underneath and sides of the breasts. They will then reshape the breasts to suit the proportions of your body. Some sagging is common with heavy breasts. In which case, the surgeon will uplift the breasts and reposition the nipples and areola to enhance and rejuvenate the breasts.

Most women only need a few days' downtime following Breast Reduction surgery. Some pain, swelling, and bruising are normal; however, typically, women don’t experience much pain following the procedure.

You will be given a soft, sports bra to support and protect the breasts and keep you comfortable as you heal.

You should take it easy and rest for two weeks. After this, you can gradually increase activity. However, excessive arm movement, stretching and strenuous or repetitive activity should be avoided for six weeks, when you should be able to return to your usual routine.
