Breast Reduction

Are you considering having a Breast Reduction?

Las Vegas NV

Women with large breasts frequently endure symptoms that can be improved with Breast Reduction surgery. This is a procedure that reshapes the breasts to a smaller size. According to Dr. Marvin Spann,"Breast Reduction surgery can free you from the physical discomfort and emotional baggage of having very large, heavy breasts, and it can improve your health by relieving back, neck, and shoulder pain." For many women, it offers a huge relief from unwanted attention due to having large breasts. During surgery, breast tissue and skin are removed. The underlying breast tissue is tightened, lifted and repositioned to be in proportion with the rest of the body. Because Las Vegas plastic surgeon Dr. Marvin Spann often performs a Breast Lift at the same time as a Breast Reduction, patients find that their breasts are not only smaller and better proportioned, but they also have a more youthful shape and appearance.

BEFORE & AFTER

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

Implant Profile
An implant profile depicts the distance the breast will project forward from the chest wall. Implants are made in low, moderate, high and extra high profiles. During your personal consultation with Dr. Marvin Spann, he will explain the different profiles and help determine which is the best for your body type.
Incision placement
An “anchor” incision is one of the most commonly used techniques during this surgery. During this approach, an incision is made around the areola, which extends down to follow the natural curve and crease of the breast. It is also referred to as a vertical “T”. Once the breast is resized and reshaped, the nipple and areola will be repositioned and then the lift will be performed so the breast sits higher on the chest. The incisions will generally include absorbable stitches on the inside of the breast. There are variations to this incision pattern that can be used depending on breast size and aesthetic goals. Because of the various techniques, we encourage you to contact Dr. Marvin Spann today to schedule your consultation.

Implant Profile
Because larger breasts sometimes create physical problems for women, insurance may cover a portion of Breast Reduction surgery. Insurance coverage does vary, thus patients should confirm with their provider as to what will, or will not be covered. According to Dr. Marvin Spann, "After the initial consultation, our office will be able to submit an official surgery recommendation letter to the insurance company to assist in gaining coverage. Our billing and insurance coordinator will work with each patient on this."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The results following Breast Reduction surgery should remain the same as long as a significant amount of weight gain does not occur. The natural aging process and gravity will, over time, change the laxity of a woman’s breast, but the size should remain steady if there is not a pregnancy or weight gain that follows.
One of the drawbacks to having excessively large breasts is an enlarged areola (the slightly darker area surrounding the nipple). Thankfully, breast reduction surgery corrects this. Since the incision occurs around the areola, it is a relatively simple technique to trim away the desired amount of areola and reshape it into a smaller size so it looks proportional with the new breast size and shape.
This varies depending on the patient’s aesthetic and physical goals. After Breast Reduction surgery, it is common to go down a complete cup size, if not two.
