Lighter. Balanced. More You.
If heavy or elongated breasts are disrupting your lifestyle or causing discomfort, a breast reduction can provide real, lasting relief—easing physical symptoms while also improving your overall confidence and comfort in your body.
Breast Reduction at a Glance
Overview
Breast reduction removes excess tissue and reshapes the breasts to relieve discomfort and improve proportion.
Recovery
Most patients resume desk work in about a week and return to full activity by 4–6 weeks.
Results
Smaller, lighter breasts that feel more balanced and aligned with your body and lifestyle.
From Reduction to Reconstruction -
Explore Our Procedures
Heavy Elongated Breasts
Breast reduction removes excess tissue and lifts the breast to a more elevated position. This helps relieve strain on your neck, back, and shoulders while giving you a lighter, more balanced shape.
Nipple Placement & Size
We reposition the nipple and areola to sit higher and more proportionally on the breast. We can also reduce areola size if needed for a more balanced look.
Masectomy
For patients pursuing reduction as part of a medical or gender-affirming procedure, we take a thoughtful, respectful approach tailored to your identity and goals.
Is a Lollipop Lift Right for You?
A natural-looking breast lift with less scarring and more shape.
A lollipop breast lift is a popular option for women who want to lift and reshape their breasts without excessive scarring. Named for its incision pattern—around the areola and down to the breast fold—it’s ideal for moderate sagging and helps restore a more youthful, perky shape. Many women choose this technique after pregnancy, weight loss, or simply to feel more confident. It offers beautiful, natural-looking results with less scarring than more extensive lift procedures.

How Long is Breast Reduction Recovery?
Recovery varies from person to person, but here’s a general overview of what you can expect during your breast reduction healing process:
3-7 Days
Initial discomfort is manageable with rest and pain medication. Most patients return to light activity within a week.
6 Weeks
You're likely cleared to resume workouts and regular activity. Most restrictions are lifted by this point.
6 Months
Swelling has mostly resolved. This is when we often capture “after” photos as your new shape becomes more defined.
12 Months
Your final results are fully visible—scars continue to fade, and the improved shape feels completely natural.
