Breast Reduction Surgery
Breast reduction surgery can bring physical and emotional relief to those women who feel that their breasts are too large or out of proportion with the rest of their body. Large breasts can, for some women, cause back, neck, and chest pain, as well as psychological distress if they feel that the size of their breasts dominates their lives and determines what clothes they can and can’t wear.
Breast reduction surgery at our Irish clinics can offer a solution to the problem of over-large breasts, creating a bust size that is more in proportion with the rest of your body and that you feel more comfortable and confident with.
Patients report this procedure as 'simply life changing'.
The procedure for breast reduction surgery
Breast reduction surgery is carried out under general anaesthetic and takes up to three hours to complete, depending on the size of your breasts. You will be required to spend one or two nights in hospital so that your progress can be monitored and so that any surgical drains can be removed before you go home.
Your cosmetic surgeon will not only remove the required amount of breast tissue during this procedure, but he or she may also reposition the tissue, nipple, and areola in order to give your smaller breasts an uplift and a natural appearance.
Recovery from breast reduction Surgery
Full recovery from breast reduction surgery usually takes around three months and in this time you will be required to wear a sports bra 24 hours a day, to ensure that your breasts are fully supported during the healing process. This surgical procedure usually requires you to take one to two weeks off work, depending on the nature of your job, and you are advised to avoid any intensive exercise for several weeks.
