In a society where many people are getting breast augmentations done, it's not as common to consider a breast reduction. However, breast reduction services can be beneficial to both your physical and mental health if you have larger breasts and want to do something about them, or if you have uneven breasts or just want to reduce their size to fit your body more.
Men and women alike both undergo breast reductions, and the results can be life-changing. You want to seek a breast cosmetic surgeon who can help you get your breast reduction done because it's still an intensive cosmetic surgery, even if it's a reduction. Consider a breast reduction to be a reconstruction of your breasts; you want a quality surgeon who can perform the breast reduction services best for your needs.
Here are ways a breast reduction can be beneficial for your physical and mental health. Your cosmetic surgeon will consult with you to explain the risks and what to expect from your surgery before they schedule you for the procedure.
Your body feels better
Breasts that are large, sagging, or both can weigh heavily on the neck, back, and shoulders. Your cosmetic surgeon can do a breast reduction and lift in one surgery to make your breasts feel less painful and give you much better support. In an event where one breast is notably larger than the other, breast reduction services can focus on reducing the larger breast to match the other.
You get more movement
It's difficult to move around with heavy breasts. When you have breast reduction services done, the result when you heal is the ability to move around more. You will be able to exercise more, wear more comfortable and supportive clothing, and overall get more movement.
Your mental health improves
When you feel better about your body, you feel better about your mental health as well. Your silhouette is improved with a breast reduction, and if you get a lift and tuck done as well, your breasts can look more youthful and be perkier.
You will feel more in control of your body with a breast reduction and will know your breasts now match the way you want them to look and work with the rest of your body. Your cosmetic surgeon may recommend both a mental health evaluation and a physical prior to performing any breast reduction services for you to ensure you are prepared for the procedure and its results.
