Ideal for those experiencing back and neck pain, skin irritation, and self-consciousness due to large breasts, breast reduction aims to alleviate physical discomfort and enhance overall body proportions.
Breast reduction is typically performed under general anesthesia. Incisions are made so that excess fat and skin can be removed without affecting the nerves and blood supply of your nipple and areola.
Breast reduction surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and can take up to five hours.
Breast reduction may remove milk ducts leading to the nipples and is generally not recommended for women who still want to breastfeed.
The average reduction mammoplasty takes between two to four hours, depending on the complexity of the case and whether we are operating on one or both breasts.
Dr. Colgrove will perform breast reduction under general anesthesia at our AAAASF-accredited outpatient surgery center. The surgery typically lasts 2 to 4 hours.
Some women combine breast reduction with a breast lift to improve breast position in addition to size.
Minimally-Invasive or Scarless Breast Reduction Techniques
Several procedures can complement breast reduction surgery to enhance overall body proportions and achieve more balanced results. A breast lift is often performed alongside reduction to improve breast shape, reposition the nipples, and create a more youthful contour.
For the right candidate, breast reduction can be a powerful solution to the aesthetic and functional burdens created by overly large breasts.
Breast Reduction generally runs $8,000–$15,000 per procedure, and each Marietta clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in US dollars (USD).

Initial results in 2–4 weeks, with full results developing over 3 months as collagen builds. Marietta providers typically schedule follow-ups to track progress.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
Often, and more often than patients expect, but carriers set specific criteria. Typically they want documented symptoms such as back, neck, or shoulder pain, evidence you have tried conservative measures like physical therapy or supportive garments, and sometimes a minimum amount of tissue to be removed based on your height and weight. Photographs are usually required. Start the process early because approval can take weeks, and ask the surgeon's office whether they handle the pre-authorization, since experienced offices do this routinely.
Surgeons discuss this in grams removed rather than cup sizes, because cup sizing is not standardized across brands. Most patients go down two to three cup sizes. The goal is proportion to your frame rather than a specific letter, and the surgeon also balances how much tissue insurance may require removed against what looks right for your body. Bring photos of the outcome you have in mind.
Breast reduction consistently records among the highest satisfaction rates of any surgical procedure, cosmetic or otherwise, in published outcome studies. The reason is that it solves a functional problem and a cosmetic one simultaneously. Patients frequently describe the relief from physical symptoms as more significant than the change in appearance.
Some patients can and some cannot, and it is difficult to predict individually. Reduction removes glandular tissue and repositions the nipple, both of which can affect milk production and duct continuity. If you plan to breastfeed in future, discuss it explicitly, because certain techniques preserve more of the ductal system, and some patients choose to delay surgery until after childbearing.
Most reductions use either a vertical lollipop pattern or an anchor pattern including a scar along the fold. They are permanent. Patients in this operation are, in general, notably accepting of scars because the symptom relief is so significant, but you should see photographs of typical scar outcomes at consultation so nothing surprises you afterward.
