Breast reduction is often an outpatient procedure

Scott Tucker, MD answers: Will you perform Breast Reduction surgery as an outpatient procedure?

13 months ago

By Scott Tucker, MD - Winston-Salem Plastic Surgeon

It is rare that anyone stays any longer than one day in the hospital even if they do stay.
