Breast Reduction at Light Plastic Surgery Clinic
Do overly large breasts cause you discomfort, back pain, or self-consciousness? Breast reduction surgery—also known as reduction mammoplasty—is a life-changing procedure that removes excess breast tissue and skin to create a more proportionate, comfortable, and aesthetically balanced bust.
At Light Plastic Surgery Clinic in Seoul, we offer advanced breast reduction procedures tailored to your unique anatomy and lifestyle needs. Whether you seek relief from physical discomfort or wish to achieve a more balanced figure, our experienced surgeons are here to guide you every step of the way.
Why Choose Breast Reduction?
Many women choose breast reduction for both functional and aesthetic reasons. Common motivations include:
- Chronic back, neck, or shoulder pain
- Skin irritation beneath the breasts
- Difficulty exercising or finding properly fitting clothes
- Nerve pain or postural issues
- Self-esteem or body image concerns
Our goal is to relieve discomfort while sculpting a natural, harmonious breast shape that suits your body and enhances your quality of life.
Tailored Techniques for Natural-Looking Results
At Light Plastic Surgery Clinic, we understand that every patient has different goals. Your breast size, skin quality, and desired outcome will determine the most suitable surgical approach.
Surgical Techniques Offered:
- Vertical (Lollipop) Reduction: Incisions around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease—ideal for moderate reductions.
- Anchor (Inverted-T) Reduction: Adds a horizontal incision along the breast crease for significant reshaping and lifting.
- Liposuction-Based Reduction: For patients with good skin elasticity who require minimal tissue removal and want smaller scars.
In all cases, the nipple-areola complex is preserved and repositioned higher on the chest for a youthful, lifted look.
Consultation and Planning
Your breast reduction journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at Light Plastic Surgery Clinic. We take the time to understand your symptoms, goals, and expectations to create a fully customized treatment plan.
During your consultation, we will:
- Evaluate your breast size, shape, and skin elasticity
- Review your medical history and physical concerns
- Discuss your desired breast size and symmetry
- Explain the recommended surgical method and incision placement
- Show before-and-after photos of similar cases
- Answer all your questions about risks, benefits, recovery, and long-term outcomes
We believe in transparency and education, so you can feel confident and informed throughout your decision-making process.
The Procedure: What to Expect
Breast reduction is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2–4 hours depending on complexity.
Surgical Steps Include:
- Precise marking and measurements before surgery
- Removal of excess breast tissue, fat, and skin
- Reshaping of the breast mound for symmetry and contour
- Repositioning of the nipple and areola
- Layered suturing to ensure optimal healing and minimal scarring
- Application of dressings and a support bra for stabilization
Most patients return home the same day and begin seeing immediate improvements in comfort and appearance.
Recovery and Aftercare
You can expect some swelling, bruising, and soreness for the first few weeks. Most patients feel relief from physical discomfort right after surgery.
Aftercare Tips:
- Wear a surgical or support bra for 4–6 weeks
- Avoid heavy lifting or upper body exercise for 4 weeks
- Sleep on your back with elevated pillows to minimize swelling
- Follow incision care instructions to reduce scarring
- Attend follow-up appointments for progress monitoring
Our team will be with you every step of the way, ensuring a smooth recovery and optimal outcome.
