Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery in Scottsdale with Dr. Victoria Aimé begins with understanding how your breast size affects you and evaluating your breast volume, shape, nipple position, asymmetry, and goals to plan both the amount of reduction and the resulting breast shape.
Breast reduction is both a size and shape operation. Your goals may include reducing breast weight and volume, improving symptoms related to large breasts, making physical activity or clothing easier, changing breast proportions, or improving breast shape and position. How much breast tissue should be removed depends on your starting anatomy, the size you would like to achieve, and how much volume needs to remain to create the desired breast shape.
During your consultation, your breast size and shape, tissue distribution, skin excess, nipple and areola position, breast width, and differences between the two breasts are evaluated along with your goals. Breast tissue, fat, and excess skin are removed as needed, while the remaining tissue is reshaped and the nipple and areola are repositioned. The areolas can also be reduced when desired. Differences in breast size or shape can be addressed by removing different amounts of tissue from each side.
Breast reduction can also be combined with other procedures when they address a separate concern. Liposuction may be used to contour fullness extending along the sides of the breasts or chest. For patients who want additional changes elsewhere, breast reduction may also be performed as part of a larger surgical plan when combining procedures can be done safely.
The consultation includes a discussion of your desired breast size, but an exact postoperative cup size cannot be guaranteed because bra sizing is not standardized and the final size and shape depend on your anatomy and healing. The goal is to develop a reduction plan that balances the amount of volume you would like removed with breast shape, proportion, nipple position, and your priorities for the result.
