The techniques and incision patterns used for Breast Reduction are essentially the same as those used for Breast Lift surgery. Dr. Rudderman’s advanced, delicate techniques focus on lessening discomfort, scarring and improving (sculpting) a new breast shape. The incisions include all or a combination of the following:
During your surgery, Dr. Rudderman removes excess breast tissue, fat and skin and the breast is sculpted to a healthier, more comfortable shape. Liposuction may be used to assist fat removal; the nipple is repositioned (maybe reduced) and remains connected. The areola may be reduced in size and relocated so the entire breast is in balance. Your new breast is reshaped, repositioned and re-proportioned…sculpted. Results are seen immediately with long term results realized over a few months as swelling resolves completely.
