Lighten the load—refine, reshape, and reclaim your confidence

For many women, overly large breasts are more than just a cosmetic concern—they can cause chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain, restrict physical activity, and make it difficult to find clothing that fits comfortably. Often, women will feel they need to hide away, or will not embrace everything life has to offer because their overly large breasts cause pain and embarrassment.

Your Best Life Starts Here

If you’ve struggled with these challenges, you deserve a solution that enhances both your comfort and your confidence. At Galanis Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Charles Galanis is known for his refined technique, natural-looking results, and deep understanding of body proportions. With his expertise, breast reduction surgery (reduction mammaplasty) can bring your breasts into balance with your frame, helping you feel lighter, more comfortable, more confident, and more like your true self in your everyday life.

Considering the Benefits of Breast Reduction

Chronic neck, back, or shoulder pain due to heavy breasts
Painful bra strap indentations or recurring skin irritation
Poor posture caused by the weight of your breasts
Difficulty finding bras, swimwear, or clothing that fits properly
Self-consciousness about breast size or asymmetry
Limitations on physical activities, such as running or yoga

A Customized Surgical Experience: The Breast Reduction Procedure

Breast reduction surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2 to 4 hours. Dr. Galanis utilizes advanced surgical techniques to achieve a lifted, proportionate, and natural-looking result. Dr. Galanis will determine the best incision type based on your anatomy and the amount of reduction needed.

Lollipop Incision (Vertical Technique): Ideal for moderate reductions, this approach includes an incision around the areola with a vertical line down the lower breast.
Anchor Incision (Inverted-T Technique): Used for larger reductions, this method adds a horizontal incision along the breast crease for maximum reshaping.

Surgical Steps

Precise Incisions: The incision type is carefully selected to minimize visible scarring.
Tissue & Fat Removal: Excess breast tissue, fat, and skin are removed to create a smaller, lifted breast shape.
Nipple & Areola Repositioning: If necessary, the nipple-areola complex is lifted to a more youthful position while maintaining sensation.
Contouring & Closure: The remaining tissue is reshaped for a firm, balanced contour, and incisions are meticulously closed to optimize healing.

Recovering From Breast Reduction Surgery

Breast reduction is an outpatient procedure, meaning most patients return home the same day. Immediate relief from back and neck pain is common, and final results emerge as swelling subsides over the following 3 to 6 months. Recovery Timeline:

Days 1-7: Initial swelling and mild discomfort (managed with pain medication). Light walking is encouraged.
Weeks 1-2: Compression bra worn to reduce swelling and support healing. Most patients can return to work.
Weeks 3-4: Transition to a soft sports bra. Moderate activity is permitted.
Weeks 5-6: Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise can gradually resume.
Months 3-6: Final breast shape settles into place and scars begin to fade.

Dr. Galanis provides personalized aftercare and follow-ups to ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results. When you choose Galanis Plastic Surgery, you get an attentive team that will be with you on this journey every step of the way.

Breast Reduction Cost & Insurance Coverage

Breast reduction surgery may be covered by insurance if deemed medically necessary. Insurance providers often require documentation of physical symptoms, such as chronic pain or skin irritation, to approve coverage. During your consultation, we can help you ensure you have all the right information gathered to help make this life-changing procedure accessible.
