Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size, weight, and reshaping of overly large breasts. Undergoing this surgery can help to alleviate physical discomfort and enhance body proportions. It’s often sought by individuals experiencing issues associated with large, heavy breasts, including: chronic back, neck, or shoulder pain, postural problems, or restricted physical activity due to the size and weight of their breasts.<\/p>\n

The surgical process involves several steps. Mr Bhat<\/a> makes incisions to remove excess breast tissue, fat, and skin, reshaping the breasts to achieve a more proportionate size and contour. Nipple-areola complexes are often repositioned to a higher position for aesthetic and functional purposes. The incisions are then meticulously closed, resulting in a more lifted and reduced breast appearance.<\/p>\n

Post-surgery, you might experience temporary discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the treated area. Pain medication helps manage any discomfort, and wearing a supportive bra aids in recovery. Rest and avoiding strenuous activities are recommended initially, gradually resuming normal activities as guided by Mr Bhat and his team. Regular follow-ups ensure proper healing and address any concerns.<\/p>\n

Breast reduction surgery can significantly improve physical symptoms and enhance quality of life for individuals with disproportionately large breasts. It’s important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss expectations, risks, and aftercare. While scarring is inevitable, the incisions are typically placed strategically to minimise visible scarring over time. Adhering to postoperative instructions, including proper wound care and follow-up visits, helps optimise results and ensures a smooth recovery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3238,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-3029","treatment","type-treatment","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nBreast Reduction Leeds | Mr Waseem Bhat Plastic Surgeon<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Breast reduction is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size, weight, and reshaping of overly large breasts.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Breast Reduction Leeds | Mr Waseem Bhat Plastic Surgeon\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Breast reduction is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size, weight, and reshaping of overly large breasts.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Mr Waseem Bhat\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-04-15T13:46:56+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2024\/02\/Waseem-Bhat-Breast-Reduction.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"910\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"650\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Estimated reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction\",\"name\":\"Breast Reduction Leeds | Mr Waseem Bhat Plastic Surgeon\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2024\/02\/Waseem-Bhat-Breast-Reduction.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2024-02-22T10:41:05+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-04-15T13:46:56+00:00\",\"description\":\"Breast reduction is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing the size, weight, and reshaping of overly large breasts.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-GB\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/treatments\/breast-reduction#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2024\/02\/Waseem-Bhat-Breast-Reduction.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/wbplasticsurgery.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/2024\/02\/Waseem-Bhat-Breast-Reduction.jpg\",\"width\":910,\"height\":650,\"caption\":\"Mr Waseem Bhat -
