For the best breast reduction Scottsdale has to offer, you’ve come to the right place. Schedule a personal consultation with our Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Aldo Guerra when you are ready to get the process started.

WHAT IS BREAST REDUCTION SURGERY?

Because only 1 to 5 percent of all women have reported excessive growth of mammary tissue in medical literature, most people do not realize the unique difficulties women with extremely large breasts face daily.

Breast reduction surgery, also called reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure designed to address a condition known as gigantomastia or macromastia (breast hypertrophy) – although women who feel uncomfortable with their breast size are also potential candidates. Aside from improving physical appearance, this procedure aims to help women experience a renewed sense of self-worth, alleviate pain, and more.

OUR TECHNIQUE

Our highly trained and experienced plastic surgeon may recommend the following breast reduction techniques to achieve your desired shape and size:

Wise Pattern Breast Reduction (Also called Anchor Pattern)

Discovered in 1954, Wise Pattern Breast Reduction is one of the oldest techniques for reducing breast size. This surgical option involves making an incision around your areola, followed by additional cuts running vertically down to the center of your breasts and then horizontally along the bottom seam near your abdomen. Women with overdeveloped or pendulous breasts are the ideal candidates for this method. Patients often report after surgery that a breast reduction enhances posture and reduces tension in the neck and shoulders.

BREAST REDUCTION FOR MEN (GYNECOMASTIA)

About 50 to 60 percent of men worldwide have enlarged breasts (gynecomastia). Many of them suffer silently. Fortunately, our surgeons specialize in reducing enlarged male breasts, giving men the confidence to live their best lives.

WHAT IS BREAST REDUCTION LIKE?

Our breast reduction procedures involve the following:

STEP 1: ANESTHESIA

The first step in any breast reduction procedure is to administer general anesthesia to ensure a painless and comfortable surgical experience.

STEP 2: INCISION

Once the anesthesia takes effect, your plastic surgeon will proceed with incision placement. The type of incision used will depend on your agreed-upon breast reduction method, the amount of tissue requiring removal, and your unique anatomy.

STEP 3: TISSUE REMOVAL

Once your surgeon gains surgical access, he will remove the excess breast tissue, fat, and skin before reshaping any remaining tissue to create an attractive breast shape.

STEP 4: INCISION CLOSURE

Sutures will close your incisions following successful reduction and reshaping.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER SURGERY

Swelling during the initial healing phase is normal. Dr. Guerra may recommend wearing an elastic bandage or post-op compression bra to keep the area comfortable, provide support, and minimize inflammation. He will also prescribe pain medications to help you manage any post-surgery discomfort. You may resume deskwork and light activities within one to two weeks.

In the next two to six weeks, it’s crucial to follow your surgeon’s postoperative instructions and maintain open communication with our office. Doing so ensures that we can guide you through recovery. Attending regular follow-up visits with your surgeon will also help guarantee your continued surgical success.
