Breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammaplasty, is a procedure designed to remove excess breast tissue and skin to reduce the size of large breasts. This surgery aims to alleviate physical discomfort, such as back and neck pain, and to help achieve a more proportional appearance.
Mr Fitzgerald O’Connor performs all of his surgeries himself.
You may be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery if you:
Have large breasts that cause physical discomfort (back, neck, or shoulder pain) or that droop or sag.
Experience skin irritation or rashes under the breasts.
Are happy to accept the scars.
Do not plan to breastfeed in the future.
Are in good health and have realistic expectations.
The scar for a breast lift is typically around the areola, with a vertical incision from the bottom of the areola to the breast crease and a horizontal incision along the breast crease.
In terms of how the scars will heal and fade over time, everyone is different and the appearance will depend on skin tone, elasticity and how your skin heals.
A breast reduction is not a minor procedure and you should understand the recovery process and the preparations in your daily life and time off from work that may be required to help you through it.
Most patients are back to light activity after 1 to 2 weeks, but full recovery may take up to 6 weeks.
Most patients report significant relief from physical discomfort immediately after surgery, with an improved silhouette.
All operations are carried out at leading London hospitals with full emergency care available. As with any surgical procedure, it's essential we discuss the risks together so you are fully informed of what you are undertaking.
While most patients experience no significant complications, potential risks include:
