A breast reduction is similar to a breast lift, however during this procedure parts of the breast tissue and fat are excised to achieve a reduction in volume and improvement in shape.
Breast reduction surgery can be an incredibly life-changing process for many women. It can give them the freedom to feel more physically comfortable, gain the ability to participate in activities they love without physical pain or inhibition, and improve overall body image—all of which have a huge impact on everyday life.
Women who have undergone this recovery process report improved self-confidence when it comes to enjoying physical activities such as swimming or exercising without that uncomfortable feeling; lower back pain can be alleviated thanks to not carrying extra weight in front; softer garments fit better instead of being stretched outwards, among many other advantages that patients point out once they undergo their ‘breast reduction before and after’ transformation.
The breast reduction before and after pictures below are patients of Dr Shagun Aggarwal, a Specialist Plastic Surgeon, fellowship trained in breast, body & face cosmetic surgery plus reconstructive microsurgery.

This patient had a breast reduction and the result is shown here after 3 months. Weight has been reduced whilst a beautiful and proportionate shape has been created.
This procedure is life-changing and patients often remark “I wish I had it done sooner”.
However any surgery has risks and one must weight them up with the benefits – those being relief from back, neck and shoulder pain, and finding it easier to find appropriately fitting clothing.
This breast reduction before and after shows the benefits of a reduced, proportional breast shape with scars that are easy to conceal and fade with time.
Our lovely patient also gained a significant part of her torso from the reduction in the breast size, and almost immediate relief from back, neck and shoulder pain. The new shape & size is also more suitable for her active lifestyle without making breast too small.
Breast drooping or ptosis after breast feeding can leave women feeling self conscious about their appearance. No amount of weight loss or exercise can improve that droop.
Dr Aggarwal helped this patient to reduce the volume and lifting the breast to a more appropriate level for her frame.
The result also improved her neck and back pain associated with the breast weight.

We are delighted with the progress and more importantly so is our patient! Thank you to our patient for allowing us to share these lovely results.
