Breast Reduction Before & After Case 861

24 year-old female (no kids, 140 lb and in a D-cup range), who stated she had lived with upper back, neck and shoulder pain since her mid-teens, and wished to be a fair amount smaller, in an A/B-cup size range if possible. I advised her that standard breast reduction techniques resuilting in an "anchor-scar" could be applied, but that it may be difficult to significantly narrow her breast base without an unusual shape resulting.  She indeed underwent this drain-free procedure as a 2.5 hour outpatient procedure, and healed quite nicely, shown here at approximately 3 months post-op, with further settling and resolution of swelling and scar prominence anticipated.  If you have similar issues, and live in or around Denver, breast reduction may be right for you.
