It’s not associated with any risks, but patients will have to be ready to go through a period of downtime to relax and recover.
A breast reduction can remove excess tissue, skin, and fat from the breasts, making them smaller and more symmetrical with the rest of your body. Not only will you feel more comfortable in your body after the procedure, you’ll also feel more beautiful.
