Breast reduction surgery can effectively alleviate the pain, discomfort, and embarrassment often associated with large breasts.
A breast mammoplasty, commonly known as breast reduction, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the size and weight of large, heavy breasts. This procedure reduces the size, lifts and repositions the breasts to enhance comfort and body proportions, revitalizing your appearance and self-confidence.
Performed under general anaesthetic in London, I remove excess breast tissue and skin to sculpt breasts that are better proportioned and more aesthetically pleasing. The result is smaller, lighter, firmer, and more symmetrical breasts, creating a more youthful appearance. This surgery not only alleviates physical discomfort but also significantly boosts mental well-being and confidence.
A mammoplasty can be life-changing, offering not only cosmetic enhancements but also a host of other benefits that can greatly enhance your quality of life.
A breast reduction procedure is carried out under general anaesthetic and typically lasts between 2 to 3 hours. It is commonly performed as a day case at our London clinic, enabling you to go home on the same day provided you have someone to care for you for the initial 24 hours.
There are several options for breast reduction surgery in London, which vary depending on factors such as nipple position, amount of breast tissue, skin quality, and patient expectations. These techniques are designed to create breasts with a natural look and feel, ultimately changing your life.

The cost of a breast reduction procedure largely depends on the technique and the individual patient.

The scars are normally in a shape of an anchor. They tend to fade to a white faint line within 12 months. I have a library of before and after photographs that show the progression of the scars. In general the scars are not noticeable after 12 months.
Most patients are worried that the operation is painful but it in fact it is very well tolerated by the majority of patients. Complications are rare in my hands but include infection, bleeding, scar, change in sensation and loss of the nipple. The most common problem is slow healing at the T-junction and this may require dressings for up to 8 weeks post op. Whilst patients are warned about these most do not develop any issues and the post operative recovery is generally uneventful.
