Breast reduction surgery is designed to decrease size and improve shape. <\/span>This procedure is especially beneficial for relieving physical discomfort, such as back, neck and shoulder pain, caused by the excess weight of the breasts due to their size. <\/span><\/p>\n

During breast reduction, our specialists in plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery at the Dra. Ana Torres Institute remove excess breast tissue, skin and fat from the breasts, reshaping and lifting the breasts to achieve a size and shape more proportionate to each patient’s body. <\/p>\n

This is how the procedure unfolds: <\/p>\n

The choice of surgical technique will depend on the volume and attributes of the breast: nipple height, width of the implantation pedicle, its extension towards the armpit and the distance that separates one breast from the other in the center.<\/span><\/p>\n
