Breast Reduction
A personalized approach by Dr. Dibildox to relieve discomfort, restore balance and improve proportion to the female chest.
What Is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce breast size by removing excess tissue, fat, and skin. It reduces the size of the breast to create a lighter and more balanced contour. The procedure improves the harmony of the body’s natural proportions.
Large breasts that hang and pull on the back and shoulders can cause significant difficulty and discomfort while exercising and performing daily activities. It can also cause debilitating and serious skin problems. Disproportionately large breasts are associated with significant body image, self esteem and social problems.
This procedure is a perfect example of how plastic surgery can improve both form and function by removing unwanted tissue and improving someone’s quality of life.
Who Is the Best Candidate for Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction may be right for you if you experience pain, tension or physical discomfort related to heavy breasts. These may include neck, shoulder, or back pain, skin irritation beneath the breasts, or difficulty with physical activities and fitting into clothes. Many patients also seek breast reduction when breast size feels disproportionate to their body or affects posture and daily comfort.

Breast Reduction Performed by Dr. Dibildox
Breast reduction surgery is carefully planned to decrease breast volume while reshaping and lifting the breasts. Dr. Dibildox selects the surgical technique based on breast size, skin quality, and individual anatomy. A periareolar, circumvertical (lollipop), or Wise pattern (inverted T) incision maybe be used achieve the goal of reducing and reshaping the breasts to ensure aesthetically pleasing and natural-looking results.
It also repositions the nipple and areola towards the centre of the breast mound as well as the position of the breast on the chest wall for youthful, balanced and beautiful results. In addition, large areoles are reduced to a natural and aesthetically-pleasing size that are proportional to the breast mound.
It is very common for this procedure to require liposuction of the upper outer chest and axillary regions to enhance the breast contour and ensure the best results.
Each surgery is performed with meticulous attention to symmetry, contour, and scar placement to ensure both aesthetic results and relief of functional problems.
