Transform Your Curves
Overly large and heavy breasts can cause physical discomfort significant enough to impact your quality of life. The resulting pain can make it challenging to perform common activities and get the exercise necessary for a healthy lifestyle.
Fortunately, breast reduction surgery lessens the size and weight of large breasts by removing extra breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin for an improved breast contour. With smaller, lighter, firmer, and better proportioned breasts, you can live more confidently and comfortably.

If you are feeling self-conscious about your body due to large and sagging breasts or are having a difficult time with physical activities, a breast reduction can bring much-needed relief and help you lead a more active and rewarding life.
The best candidates are those whose fully developed breasts cause serious discomfort. Patients should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations of the procedure’s outcome.
Dr. Gonzalez is a top of the line Surgeon! His strong character at times can come off arrogant and intimidating but don’t let that alarm you.

Breast reduction is performed using different techniques, depending on a patient’s breast anatomy, amount of tissue removed, and aesthetic goals. Most often, breast reduction will incorporate either an inverted-T technique or a straight line (vertical) incision.
Using a breast reduction technique tailored to your needs, Dr. Gonzalez will make skin incisions to access the breast tissue.
Breast tissue, skin, and fat are removed, and the nipple-areola complex is repositioned to a higher, more natural part of the breast. The areola’s size may also be reduced to complement the new, smaller breast.
In some cases, Dr. Gonzalez may opt for liposuction as an additional procedure to remove excess fat for the best results.
During your pre-operative consultation, Dr. Gonzalez will perform a physical examination, discuss your goals and options, and help you determine the best technique to meet your needs.

Following your surgery, you will be monitored closely before being discharged home to begin the healing process. Breast reduction is an outpatient procedure.
A specialized surgical bra is provided to offer support and help minimize swelling and bruising as you heal. A tiny tube-like draining device is also inserted in each breast to drain fluids and blood in the first few days of recovery.
Most patients experience mild to moderate pain or discomfort for about two weeks. To help manage the discomfort, Dr. Gonzalez will prescribe pain medication.
Recovery from breast reduction surgery can take up to six weeks, with most patients returning to normal activities in about two weeks. Any strenuous activity is restricted for about three to four weeks.
Patients often find that when extra breast tissue is removed, back, shoulder, and neck pain is significantly eased. Breast reduction also unburdens the upper body and allows you to increase your physical activity level. Additionally, the breasts are reshaped to create a compact, youthful, and more aesthetically looking appearance.

The cost of your breast reduction will vary depending on the techniques used, the amount of reduction needed, any combination procedures, and factors like anesthesia fees, operating room fees, surgeon’s fees, and the geographical location.
You will be given an accurate cost estimate during your consultation. If you are choosing breast reduction to address significant physical pain, talk with your insurance provider to see if they will help cover some of the costs. While insurance coverage is not guaranteed (depending on your policy and provider), it is wise to check.
Breast reduction surgery is nearly always combined with a breast lift to ensure that the smaller breast is lifted and perky. These techniques will be incorporated into your reduction.
You can discuss this combination with Dr. Gonzalez during your consultation.
Breast reduction can be performed alone or with other surgical procedures, such as liposuction, tummy tuck surgery, or Mommy Makeover surgery.
Both women and men experience discomfort associated with enlarged breast tissue. While the concept of female breast reduction and male breast reduction (gynecomastia surgery) is similar, it is performed differently. Men with enlarged breast tissue may require liposuction or surgical excision of the tissue, depending on the cause of their gynecomastia.
