Breast Reduction Surgery in Mumbai

Breast reduction surgery involves removal of excess Breast tissue, Fat & skin. The Nipple & Areola are shifted to a higher position. The size of the areola is also reduced. Skin that was formerly located above the nipple is brought down and together to reshape the breast. This would result in smaller & more attractive Breast. Liposuction is usually required for Axillary & lateral chest wall folds. There are various techniques for Breast Reduction, each having its advantages & disadvantages Dr Samir will discuss with you the various techniques & let you know which one is best for you.  Most women who get breast reduction are very satisfied with the results. Men with conditions such as gynecomastia (in which male breasts are abnormally enlarged) may also have it. Because it’s major surgery, you should know the benefits, potential complications, and what’s involved in recovery.
