Breast Reduction (for Women) Case

Details for Case #8465

After she finished breast-feeding her children, this 28-year-old woman was unhappy with the size, shape and asymmetry of her breasts. Wanting to improve the appearance of her breasts, she decided to look for a Los Angeles breast reduction expert to see what plastic surgery could do to restore her breasts.

When she came to Marina Plastic Surgery Associates, she explained to her surgeon that she wanted her breast to look more like they did before she had children and her surgeon suggested that a breast lift and reduction would best address her concerns. The breast lift, using Dr. Grant Stevens’ Laser Bra breast lift technique, would restore her breasts to a more attractive position on her chest and the reduction would make her breasts lighter and more symmetrical.

Additionally, her surgeon would use a short incision technique for the reduction, where he would make an incision around the areolas (the skin around the nipple) and vertically down the contour of the breast. Though not ideal for all patients, the short incision around the nipple would allow her surgeon to reshape her areolas to make them more symmetrical.

Following her Los Angeles cosmetic surgery procedures, this patient’s breasts look rejuvenated, sitting higher on her chest and looking round, full and youthful. She was very pleased with the results and glad that her breasts looked the way they did before having children.
