Large, heavy breasts can cause physical discomfort and emotional stress, making daily activities challenging and even painful. For women struggling with these issues, Dr. Ron Levine, an experienced plastic surgeon in Forest Hill, North York, Toronto, offers breast reduction surgery as an effective solution.
Breast reduction surgery involves the removal of excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce overall breast size and weight. This transformative procedure is designed to relieve pain, improve posture, enhance comfort, and boost confidence by achieving a more balanced and proportionate breast size. Breast reduction is ideal for women experiencing back, neck, and shoulder pain due to heavy breasts, as well as those dealing with painful bra strap grooves, rashes, or difficulty finding correctly fitting clothing.
What happens during breast reduction?
During the procedure, Dr. Levine carefully reshapes the breasts to achieve a natural, harmonious appearance that complements the patient’s body. The surgery also addresses breast asymmetry and lifts sagging breasts to create a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing contour. Sometimes, this involves reducing the size of the areola for a more proportional appearance.
Recovery after breast reduction
Recovery from breast reduction surgery typically involves wearing a supportive compression bra to minimize swelling and provide necessary support during healing. Dr. Levine provides patients with detailed post-operative care instructions to promote optimal recovery. While some swelling and bruising are expected, most patients feel comfortable enough to return to light activities within a week.
