What is Breast Reduction Surgery?

Many women suffer both medical and aesthetic concerns as a result of their breast size. Having large breasts can cause chronic pain in the back, shoulders, and neck as well as cause infections or rashes to occur under the breasts. Additionally, exercise can be very difficult for many breast reduction patients and they often struggle to find clothing that fits properly.

A breast reduction procedure removes some breast tissue and excess skin to reduce the size of the patient’s breasts to resolve these issues or concerns. For more information about Breast Reduction Surgery, you can view our blog ‘Breast Reduction Surgery Boston: 12 FAQs’.

Breast Reduction Recovery

Following a breast reduction procedure patients will have gauze over their breasts and will need to take a week or two simply resting to recover from the procedure. Any side effects of the surgery will be the most significant during this time and pain medication will be prescribed. Most Hartford, Connecticut breast reduction patients take two weeks off work to give themselves time to recover. However, full recovery from the procedure can take a couple of months and it is important that patients wear supportive bras or sports bras for the months following their surgery to provide sufficient support until the area has fully recovered.
