Common Reasons For Wanting Breast Reduction

The number one reason for breast reduction is of course to make them smaller. The discomfort, inability to wear cute tops, bra strap groves and more is what drives many of us to search the Internet for hours looking at before and after photos, asking around on message boards and chat rooms and seeking support as though we needed approval from strangers. Well, it isn't about approval at all! It is about sharing information and experiences. It is about seeking out those who have been there and done it and are willing to help us through the very same experience.

Some women have an overabundance of significant breast tissue and decide that enough is enough and go for it! Some have lost considerable weight but still have large, pendulous breasts, some simply cant to be able to swear more stylish clothes or be able to sleep on their stomachs for once. Some patients have extreme asymmetry, some have congenital deformities, some just need a lift.

The point of this section isn't to finger any specific REASON to have breast tissue removed with the exception of ONE RULE: If you decide to have breast reduction please make sure you are doing it for yourself. Other than that, it can be for any personal reason you wish it to be. Breast reduction is a personal decision and the personal factors that are behind it are your own. The important matter is like I said, to be sure it is not being done for your spouse or boy friend or significant other, it must be for YOU.There are inherent risks and possible complications, and there may be considerable scarring. Just know that, take care in choosing a qualified surgeon and read up on the subject as much as possible so that you are making an informed decision.

We share that one goal, to improve the quality of our lives by altering our breasts surgically and that is what this website is for. To help inform and bring together patients with like-minded surgical interests.
