What happens during breast reduction surgery?

During your breast reduction in Sacramento, you will be under general anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain. Your surgeon will make incisions and remove excess fat, breast tissue and skin to reduce the size of your breasts. Liposuction may be used as part of the procedure.

Your surgeon will reshape the breast mounds and may reposition your nipples to be centered on the breast mound, taking care to make your breasts as symmetrical as possible. Once your surgery is completed, your breasts will be covered with a special surgical bandage.

How long will it take me to recover?

After the anesthesia wears off, any post-surgical discomfort can be managed with prescription pain medication. You will be provided with detailed instructions for post-operative care. Some swelling or bruising is to be expected over the first few days to a week after surgery. For two to four weeks, you will need to limit physical activity, so your breasts heal.

Do not wear an underwire bra for the first few months after surgery. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us. We are here to make your recovery smooth and uneventful, and to ensure you enjoy the difference in your life experience when you have a balanced, lovely figure!

When will I see my results?

You will be able to see the changes in breast size when the dressings are removed at a follow-up appointment at our private clinic. As any swelling subsides and surgical scars begin to fade, your final results appear. Your breasts will be more proportionate and depending on the surgical plan you and your doctors agreed upon, your nipples will be centered on the breast mound. Breast reduction results are long-lasting. You shouldn’t require any additional surgical procedures as long as you maintain a fairly stable weight after your surgery.
