Specializes in Surgery - Plastics

Depends: The decision to have breast reduction depends on the symptoms you are having as a result of large breasts in combination with your desire to reduce the size of your breasts. Your plastic surgeon can evaluate your goals and discuss surgical options with you.

Only for relief: Breast reduction is done to relieve physical symptoms, it is not a cosmetic procedure. You will be trading contour for scars.

Not Necessary: Based on your description, you may be an excellent candidate for breast reduction surgery. However, no elective breast surgery is “necessary”; on the other hand, breast reduction surgery done for the right patient tends to be very satisfying from the physical and often psychosocial standpoints.
