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 removes excess tissue and reshapes the breasts to relieve discomfort and improve proportion.
Most patients resume desk work in about a week and return to full activity by 4–6 weeks.
Smaller, lighter breasts that feel more balanced and aligned with your body and lifestyle.
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.
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.
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.
“Dr Ditesheim spends a lot of time talking through your desired outcomes and various choices to reach those. I appreciate how patient he is with questions and willingness to work with you.”

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