Breast Reduction
What is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction (reduction mammoplasty) is a surgical procedure to reduce breast size and weight by removing excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin. It improves bust proportion while relieving physical discomfort (back/neck/shoulder pain) caused by overly large breasts.
At TOPS, we use advanced techniques for natural, symmetrical results that harmonize with your body
Recovery Time
- First few days: Swelling/discomfort (managed with medication). Post-surgical bra required.
- Week 1: Light activities resume.
- Weeks 4–6: Gradual return to exercise.
- 3 months: Final results (full breast settling).
