Breast Reduction Seattle | Breast Reduction BellevueWho is a candidate for breast reduction?

  • If you have large, heavy breasts, which may be the cause of breathing difficulties, back, shoulder and neck pain, poor posture, bra-strap indentation and chafing under the breasts.
  • If you have excessive breast size, which may decrease a sense of attractiveness and self-confidence.
  • If large breasts interfere with normal daily activities or with exercise.

 

Intended results of breast reduction

  • More attractive contour and smaller breast size.
  • Freedom from health problems associated with excessively large breasts.
  • Improved self-image.

Breast reduction procedure description

  • The procedure is done under general anesthesia on an outpatient basis or might require an overnight stay.
  • Incisions are made around the pigmented area (the nipple-areolar complex) and extend vertically below the nipple and in the fold under the breast.  The nipple-areolar complex while intact is moved upward to the desired location and excess breast tissue, fat, and skin are removed.
  • Occasionally, only a vertical scar is used.

Recuperation and healing following breast reduction surgery

  • The incisions are covered with light dressing, and the breasts are placed in a bra.  The bra holds the breast comfortably during initial healing.
  • Occasionally, drains are used for the first 24 hours.
  • Initial discomfort subsides daily and can be controlled with oral medication.
  • Scars will fade tremendously in 6 to 12 months.
  • Surgery will probably reduce the ability to breast feed.

Other options besides breast reduction

  • An additional procedure that would enhance the result is Liposuction of the axillary area to reduce excess fat deposits.

Insurance guidelines for breast reduction

  • This procedure is commonly covered by insurance though insurance criteria are becoming more and more restrictive.  Our staff will assist you in obtaining
    pre authorization.
