Resize and reshape with breast reduction

Breast reduction removes excess tissue, skin, and fat to reshape and resize the breasts.

Breast reduction at a glance

A reduction removes extra breast tissue, fat, and skin to make the breasts smaller, lighter, more perky, and more proportionate.

Overview

Cosmetic breast reduction removes excess skin, fat, and breast tissue to reshape and resize to your desired breast size.

Recovery

Though everyone is unique, recovery time is typically 3-7 days with 6 weeks of water submersion.

Results

Most women feel and look better almost immediately. Though you’ll see improvements along the way, expect residual swelling to resolve and your results around 12 months post-op.

what to expect

What do breast reduction scars look like?

Amelia specializes in two types of breast reduction incisions, anchor and lollipop. The right incision for you is the one that will be the most successful in helping you achieve your goals. A good relationship with a good plastic surgeon will allow you to talk through your options based on your unique anatomy and goals during your consultation.

How long is the breast reduction recovery?

Keep in mind that everyone’s breast reduction recovery time is unique. Your surgeon will give you individualized instructions and timelines during your consultation.

3-7 Days

Most patients find this does not tend to be a particularly difficult recovery thanks to advancements in technique and technology.

6 Weeks

Most patients are cleared to resume all activity. All restrictions are typically lifted
at 6 weeks.

6 Months

About 80% of swelling has resolved for most and often when your “after photos” are taken.

12 Months

Though you'll see improvements along the way, most patients achieve their results around 12 months post-op.

BRA LINE LIPOSuction

Did you know bra line lipo is included?

If you have a breast lift or breast reduction in an Amelia practice, you may be offered bra line liposuction as a part of it. In most Amelia practices, it is included in the cost of the procedure. Bra line liposuction permanently removes excess fat from the sides of the body and under the arm, much where a bra band lies. Combining bra line lipo with a breast lift or breast reduction gives more shape and contour to the breast where it meets the chest.
