Breast reduction surgery is an extremely rewarding procedure that can help both women and men to free themselves of the restricting and sometimes embarrassing effects of overly large breasts.
Our breast reduction patients usually contact us when the problems associated with their large breasts become a hindrance that they can no longer tolerate in their daily lives.
Our state-of-the-art 3D Crisalix imaging technology allows our surgeons to show you a computer-generated model incorporating a scan of your breast area and information compiled to form a graphic image of the likely results. This can then be adapted in real time to demonstrate how reducing your breasts by different volumes would look on your individual frame, allowing you to gain a visual of what is possible and how your end results may look. This is an excellent communication tool to allow you to accurately outline your desired outcomes to your surgeon prior to deciding to proceed with your operation.
For men who are affected by overly large breasts, male breast reduction surgery (medically known as gynecomastia), is also available. Our surgeons can provide effective breast reduction for men who are experiencing this common condition. For more information on this procedure, please visit the Gynaecomastia page of our site.
