Breast Reduction

Improve your quality of life
with breast reduction surgery

Every year, millions of women undergo the breast augmentation procedure to increase the size of their breasts. However, many other women are looking for the exact opposite — a reduction in breast size.

Disproportionately large breasts can be a huge burden on the neck, shoulders and back, causing stress and inhibiting an active lifestyle. Oversized breasts may also cause self-consciousness and embarrassment, as well as a poor fit in swimwear and tight-fitting clothes.

If you have very large or pendulous breasts, Dr. Kiran Gill can perform her breast reduction to remove excess fat and tissue around the breast mound. This procedure can help to give you a more proportionate figure and reduce any discomfort you have been experiencing.

Benefits of Breast Reduction Surgery

If you are having a hard time being physically active because of large and heavy breasts, breast reduction surgery could improve your quality of life. If you feel self-conscious about the size of your breasts or have trouble finding clothes that fit, reducing your breast size could improve your self-confidence.

Some women undergo this procedure because they experience upper and lower back pain because of large breasts. This procedure can greatly reduce the pain you experience because of the excess weight you are carrying. For some women, surgery is the only way to stop bra straps from digging in to their skin. This typically occurs when the breasts are too large for your frame.

Additional advantages of breast reduction surgery include…

  • Can help stop taunting, bullying or teasing regarding the breast size
  • Helps reduce chaffing and irritation
  • Helps increase physical stamina and energy
  • Can restore joy in sports and recreation
  • Decreases breakouts and rashes
  • Reduction in breast sagging
  • Improves breast symmetry
  • Reduces stress
  • Long-lasting, sustainable results
  • Natural-looking outcome
  • Well-hidden scars
  • A more youthful, balanced physique
  • Improved nipple position

Best Candidates for Breast Reduction

When very large breasts are compromising your quality of life, surgery may be right for you. You may be a good candidate for this procedure if you:

  • Are in good physical health, both physically and emotionally
  • Are free from any significant medical conditions that would impede surgery or recovery
  • Are a non-smoker, or are willing to quit prior to treatment
  • Have realistic expectations about the outcome of surgery
  • Are tired of back, shoulder, neck, and upper body pain caused by large breasts
  • Have not been able to obtain results through diet and exercise alone
  • No longer want to deal with skin irritation or uncomfortable bra straps
  • Are bothered by the size of your breasts
  • Have low self-confidence because of very large breasts
  • Are willing to follow Dr. Gill’s instructions, both before and after surgery

Undergoing Breast Reduction Surgery

Dr. Gill’s breast reduction is typically performed under general anesthesia because it involves a combination of liposuction and tissue manipulation techniques. Dr. Gill will surgically remove excess fat, breast tissue, and skin to create a small breast size and natural contours.

Using the right technique is essential for achieving the most aesthetically-pleasing results.

Incisions will be made either around the areola in a circular, keyhole, or inverted T pattern, depending on the amount of tissue that needs to be removed and other factors.

Once the excess fat is removed, the underlying tissue can be sculpted and lifted for a more desirable shape. The incisions are closed and secured with sutures or surgical tape.

Your Personalized Breast Reduction Consultation

Dr. Gill uses the consultation to perform a breast exam, review your medical records and formulate a unique, personalized action plan for improving your appearance and relieving you of the negative effects of oversized breasts. She will answer all your questions in depth, going over such topics as risks and benefits; recovery and downtime; and what you can anticipate as far as your final outcome for your Naples, FL breast reduction procedure.

You will have ample chance to review our library of before and after photography for Dr. Gill’s breast reduction clients. You are also invited to bring in any photos of your own that reveal your artistic and aesthetic tastes to the doctor so that she might be able to better meet your expectations for success.
