- Breast Reduction (for Women)
Details for Case #8336
After breastfeeding her children, this 38-year-old mother was disappointed that her nipples had begun to point downward. She also felt that the sagging and large size of her breasts made her look overweight in certain outfits since her breasts hung over her abdomen. Knowing that a skilled Los Angeles plastic surgeon could help her, she scheduled a consultation with one of the board-certified plastic surgeons at Marina Plastic Surgery Associates.
Since the sagging and size of her breasts were her biggest concerns, her surgeon recommended that she have a breast lift and a breast reduction. A Lift would help to restore her breast to a more attractive position on the chest, and with the added effect of the Laser Bra, the patient’s breasts would maintain their perkiness after surgery. The Laser Bra is a procedure that can supplement a breast lift, where the surgeon creates an internal “bra” that supports the breast tissue. It was developed to limit the chances of the breast “bottoming out” after surgery, or the tissue drooping below the nipple.
With both these procedures combined, this patient’s breasts have now been restored to a more youthful position. Her California breast reduction successfully made her breasts a more comfortable size while still maintaining their femininity and natural contour. Afterwards, she was very happy with her smaller and perkier breasts.
