Asian Breast Reduction in Beverly Hills, CA
Many women often wish for large, perky breasts that can be achieved through Asian breast augmentation surgery. However, other women have naturally large breasts that can be inconvenient in daily life and look disproportionate to their bodies.
Because Asian women tend to have shorter and slighter body frames, large breasts can seem more noticeable on Asian women than on other ethnicities with larger builds and broader shoulders. This disproportion leads many Asian women to consider Asian breast reduction.
Asian breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty) lessens the size of breasts by removing excess tissue and fat. A breast reduction can eliminate discomfort caused by large breasts and make it easier for women to fit comfortably in clothing.
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your large breasts or feel that they are causing pain and discomfort, a breast reduction may be right for you.
What Are the Benefits of Asian Breast Reduction?
Large breasts can weigh heavily on the body, causing shoulder, neck, and back pain. This pain can make daily activities difficult and uncomfortable for a woman. Asian breast reduction surgery alleviates this pain by minimizing the weight of breasts.
Exercise can often be difficult and painful for large-busted women. It can be challenging to find a sports bra that fits comfortably and provides adequate support for your breasts while working out. Reducing the size of breasts can make exercising more comfortable and enjoyable.
Large breasts can appear disproportionate to your body—especially when you have a more petite body frame. It can often be challenging to find clothing that fits comfortably and is flattering to your body type. Asian breast reduction surgery reduces the bust to a more convenient size for improved physical and emotional comfort.
Frequently Asked Questions About Asian Breast Reduction
Does insurance cover Asian breast reduction surgery?
Most insurance companies do not cover cosmetic procedures; however, if you seek breast reduction surgery for health reasons, some or all of the cost may be covered. Contact your insurance company for specific information on their breast reduction surgery policy.
How long does Asian breast reduction surgery take?
The length of your breast reduction surgery depends on your specific needs for the procedure. Generally, breast reduction surgery takes around two hours to perform.
What are the potential complications associated with breast reduction surgery?
Breast reduction surgery is a generally safe procedure when performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon, such as Dr. Lee. However, some risks come with any surgery. These risks include:
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Changes in nipple sensation
- Inability to breastfeed
- Poor wound healing
- Unfavorable scarring, including hypertrophic or keloid scarring
Will I need to wear a bra after my reduction?
Continuing to wear a bra after breast reduction surgery helps maintain your results and keep your breasts perky. Not wearing a bra often leads to sagging breasts; in this case, additional breast surgery, such as a breast lift, may need to be performed.
Can I breastfeed after breast reduction surgery?
Many women who have undergone breast reduction surgery have been able to breastfeed. The ability to breastfeed after breast reduction surgery is dependent on whether the nipple was fully or partially removed (or damaged) during the procedure. In some cases, even if the nipple was not removed, women have lost the ability to breastfeed or cannot breast as fully. If breastfeeding is important to you, you may wish to wait until you are done having children to undergo breast reduction surgery.
