What is a Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty)?
A Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty) is a type of cosmetic plastic
surgery the removes breast tissue to decrease size making breasts lighter and
firmer.
The request for breast reduction is typically because of chronic back pain,
neck pain, shoulder pain or chronic rashes under the breasts. This is a
procedure that requires removal of breast tissue and skin, relocation of the
nipple and recreation of the skin brassiere. Dr. Felice finds this procedure
very challenging in that all breast sizes and shapes are very different and
creating new, smaller breasts tests his sculpting abilities. He is very
gratified to see a patient afterward with relief of many of their back symptoms
and enjoyment of their new size and shape.
