Breast reduction surgery aims to reduce the size and weight of breasts to alleviate discomfort, improve posture, and enhance physical activity. This procedure can be performed without insurance coverage, but patients will be responsible for the full cost.

Pros: Relief from pain and discomfort caused by large breasts, improved posture and ability to exercise, potential for increased self-confidence.

Cons: Significant out-of-pocket cost, surgery carries inherent risks, scarring is a possibility.

Alternatives: Breast support garments, exploring weight loss options if weight contributes to breast size.

Recovery Time: Typically 4-6 weeks for full recovery.

Disclaimer: Breast reduction is a major surgery. It’s crucial to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss candidacy, cost, potential risks and benefits, and alternative options.
