Women
with very large, pendulous breasts may experience a variety of medical
problems, caused by the excessive weight, from back and neck pain or
skin irritation to skeletal deformities and breathing problems. Bra
straps may leave indentations in women’s shoulders. Additionally,
unusually large breasts can make a woman, or teenage girl, feel
extremely self-conscious. Breast reduction, technically known as
reduction mammaplasty, is designed for such women.
The procedure removes fat, glandular
tissue, and skin from the breasts, making them smaller, lighter, and
firmer. It can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin
surrounding the nipple. The goal is to achieve the look of smaller,
better-shaped breasts in proportion to the rest of the body.
