Breast Reduction Surgery Abroad
Breast reduction is a cosmetic surgery procedure that reduces the size and reshapes the contours of large breasts by removing excess breast tissue. It may include reducing the size of the areola (the pigmented skin surrounding the nipple), which frequently becomes overly enlarged as breasts develop.
For many women, breast reduction offers a resolution of both the functional and aesthetic problems associated with large breasts. It is often performed to ease the physical discomfort which accompanies large breasts, such as backaches, arm and shoulder pain, breast pain, breathing difficulty, and irritation of the lower breast skin. In most cases, it is an operation with high patient acceptance and satisfaction.
