I am going have breast reduction next month I can not tolerate any pain. Is this surgery very painful ?
Answer: Management of Pain after Breast Reduction Surgery In my opinion, breast reduction is not exceedingly painful. The good thing is that your surgeon will manage your pain to keep manageable and at the end of your recovery period your back and neck will be pain-free.

Answer: Breast reduction I appreciate your question.Overall, all surgeries have some level of discomfort. Since a reduction only deals with skin and fat (not muscle or bone) it is a very well tolerated operation.Most patents have some discomfort for a few days only but rarely true pain.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

Answer: Breast Reduction Absolutely NOT. There was a big study that showed not only is breast reduction the number one most satisfied procedure done by plastic surgeons, but it also has the least amount of pain associated with it.

Answer: Is breast reduction very painful? Thank you for the question.Congratulations on your decision to proceed with breast reduction surgery; it is one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform.Every patient's pain threshold is different; however, breast reduction surgery is generally very well tolerated. Most patients do very well with the use of oral narcotics for 5 to 10 days post operatively.Best wishes.

Answer: Pain with reduction surgery Thank you for your question. Of all of the major surgeries that plastic surgeons perform, honestly, breast reduction tends to be low on the scale of pain. Women are usually so happy to have the extra tissue off that even the pain from the incisions is well-tolerated. Best wishes.
