Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure that helps reduce the size of a woman’s breasts. Dr. Lee will remove extra fat, tissue, and skin to contour the breast to a more youthful and perky appearance. Breast reduction is an outpatient procedure that generally doesn’t have many complications.

Consultation and Planning
When you come to a consultation at New Life Cosmetic Surgery, Dr. Lee will examine you and determine if you are a candidate for breast reduction surgery. He will listen and discuss your desires for the surgery.
Dr. Lee will discuss expected outcomes based on your breast anatomy. The game plan for your surgery will be thoroughly discussed at your visit so you will leave the office having all your questions answered.
Recovery
During the first few days your breast are sore and there is usually only mild to moderate discomfort. This is very well tolerated with the pain medication that is prescribed. It will be important to wear appropriate supportive bra, which we will discuss prior to the surgery. The breast will be initially swollen but that resolves over the first month. Before you know it, you will have perky, soft, natural appearing breasts and look great in and out of clothes.
Dr. Lee sees all the patients the next day after surgery. He will remove the bandages and you can shower after these bandages have been removed. You should not lift anything over 5 pounds in the first 2 weeks of recovery. However most patients return to work within 1 week, especially if they have light duty at work. Remember everyone heals at different time intervals. Important factors are nutrition and not smoking. We will be there with you to help you recover as quickly as possible.
Results
After a breast reduction, you will enjoy your new breasts and have confidence in how you look both in and out of clothes. Individual results will vary. Dr. Lee spends time during the preoperative consultation to discuss the results to expect given your unique breast tissue and breast framework prior to the surgery.
