Breast Reduction

A new and exciting alternative to traditional breast reduction surgery is liposculpture breast reduction, also known as tumescent liposuction reduction mammoplasty.

Using the small microcannulas, the breast size can
be reduced with the benefits as in other body tumescent liposculpture areas.

For the appropriate patient up to 50% volume reduction can be achieved without the disfiguring scars and more complicated scalpel surgery and recovery period.

Women interested in breast reduction now have an alternative to the invasive and disfiguring standard form of breast reduction surgery.

Breast reduction is a procedure women consider when the size of the breasts create physical discomfort or an appearance that is not desirable for the individual.

For the appropriate patient, up to 50 percent reduction of the breast size is possible by the new breast reduction technique utilizing the tumescent technique of liposculpture with microcannuals.

Minimize Discomfort, Minimize Scars
Unlike conventional breast reduction surgery which involves the cutting out of breast tissue with resultant scars typically running around the nipple and down the breasts (see diagram above) and extending horizontally below the breasts, the new technique involves the use of tiny straw like instruments (Microcannulas) which are used to suction out the fat through tiny incisions. Recovery with the older procedure is prolonged and frequently the scars are disfiguring and can remain permanently spread and reddened.

By contrast, breast reduction with tumescent liposculpture results in a reduced breast size with minimal, almost invisible scars typically (see picture above right), and the recovery period is much more comfortable and shorter. Additionally, the new technique does not require the use of general anesthesia and can be painlessly performed completely with local anesthesia.

Local Anesthesia
The new procedure is performed in our certified operating room, with tiny incisions made in the breast through which small cocktail straw sized instruments, or microcannulas, are placed and the excess fatty and glandular tissue is suctioned out. The procedure is done comfortably, entirely with local anesthesia.

For more information on this revolutionary new technique in breast reduction surgery please contact our office and request a consultation appointment to determine whether you may be a candidate for this tumescent technique reduction mammoplasty procedure.
