Can you get a breast reduction if you have multiple fibroadenomas?

Dear blossomkirbyriley123,
breast reduction is best suited for women who wish to decrease the size of their breasts. While there are different techniques used to perform this surgery, I prefer the vertical incision (lollipop pattern) breast reduction technique instead of the anchor scar pattern, which reduces more noticeable scarring than usual. I also use a SAFE liposuction technique to reduce additional fat around the stubborn axilla area and bra line. This way, my patients are achieving beautiful results with minimal incisions which reduces downtime and delivers an overall better breast shape long term.If you are considering breast reduction surgery, you should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and make sure your surgeon understands your goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

The decision to have a breast reduction, especially if you have multiple fibroadenomas, should be made in consultation with a medical professional. Having fibroadenomas may not necessarily prevent you from getting a breast reduction, but your medical history and the specific circumstances would be considered to determine if the procedure is appropriate for you. It’s important to discuss your concerns and goals with an experienced surgeon who can provide advice based on your situation.
