Procedures > Female > Breast Reduction > What can the procedure achieve?
Breast reduction can alleviate most of the problems associated with large breasts. During a breast reduction operation, we remove excess breast glandular tissue, fat and skin from the breasts and reshape the remaining tissue. We elevate and reposition the nipples to a more natural position if required. This results in a more attractive shape, which does not put as much strain on the back or neck.
Breast reduction can also correct a pre-existing asymmetry of the breasts, where one breast is significantly larger than the other. Depending on your wishes however, it may be preferable to enlarge the smaller breast with an implant.
