Breast Reduction Candidate?
Thank you for the question.
If you are concerned about the breast size and/or have symptoms (such as neck back shoulder discomfort) exacerbated by the size of your breasts and can tolerate the resulting scars then you may be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery. You should do your homework and understand the potential risks and complications associated with the procedure and decide if you wish to proceed.
Most patients who decide to proceed with breast reduction...
