About Breast Reduction Surgery
Relief. Proportion. Freedom.
If you've been struggling with the physical and emotional burden of overly large breasts, you're not alone. Many women experience chronic back pain, neck discomfort, shoulder grooving from bra straps, difficulty exercising, and limitations in clothing choices—all of which can significantly impact quality of life and self-confidence.
Breast reduction surgery, medically known as reduction mammoplasty, offers comprehensive relief by removing excess breast tissue, fat, and skin while reshaping and lifting the breasts to create a more proportionate, youthful silhouette. This transformative procedure addresses both the physical symptoms of macromastia and the aesthetic concerns that accompany disproportionately large breasts.
Dr. Nwaoz employs advanced surgical techniques that prioritize natural-looking results with minimal scarring. By carefully removing the appropriate amount of tissue and repositioning the nipple-areolar complex to a more aesthetically pleasing location, he creates breasts that are smaller, firmer, and beautifully shaped—in perfect harmony with your body's natural proportions.
The benefits extend far beyond physical relief. Patients consistently report feeling liberated—able to participate in physical activities without discomfort, shop for clothing at any store, and feel confident in their appearance. The psychological transformation is often as profound as the physical one, with many describing breast reduction as life-changing.
During your consultation, Dr. Nwaoz will conduct a thorough evaluation of your breast size, shape, skin quality, and overall health. He'll discuss your specific concerns, desired breast size, and aesthetic goals to develop a personalized surgical plan that delivers optimal results while maintaining breast health and function.
Most patients notice immediate relief from physical symptoms following surgery, with continued improvement as healing progresses. The results are long-lasting, creating breasts that are lighter, more proportionate, and easier to support—allowing you to embrace a more active, comfortable, and confident lifestyle.

Your Journey to Relief and Confidence
A thoughtful, personalized approach from consultation to recovery
Private Consultation
Meet with Dr. Nwaoz in a comfortable, confidential setting to discuss your concerns, goals, and medical history. He'll perform a thorough breast examination, take measurements, and review before-and-after photos to help you visualize potential results. Together, you'll determine your ideal breast size and develop a customized surgical plan. Most consultations last 45-60 minutes, allowing ample time for all your questions.
Pre-Operative Preparation
Our team will guide you through pre-surgical requirements including medical clearance, pre-operative testing, and detailed instructions for the days leading up to surgery. We'll review medication guidelines, arrange for post-operative assistance, and ensure you feel fully prepared and comfortable. Insurance pre-authorization assistance is available if applicable.
Surgical Day
Your procedure will be performed in our accredited surgical facility under general anesthesia. Breast reduction typically takes 2-4 hours depending on the extent of reduction and technique used. Dr. Nwaoz will remove excess tissue, fat, and skin, reshape the breast, and reposition the nipple-areolar complex to create lifted, proportionate results. You'll recover comfortably in our private recovery suite before being released to go home the same day.
Recovery & Follow-Up
Most patients return to light activities within one week and resume normal routines within 2-3 weeks. You'll wear a specialized support garment for several weeks to promote optimal healing. Dr. Nwaoz will see you for multiple follow-up appointments to monitor your healing, remove sutures, and ensure you're progressing beautifully. Most patients feel the surgery was completely worth it and wish they had done it sooner.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about breast reduction
Am I a good candidate for breast reduction surgery?
You may be an ideal candidate if you experience physical discomfort from large breasts (back pain, neck pain, shoulder grooving, skin irritation), difficulty exercising or finding properly fitting clothes, or emotional distress related to breast size. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and have completed breast development. During your consultation, Dr. Nwaoz will evaluate your individual situation and determine if breast reduction is right for you.
Will my insurance cover breast reduction surgery?
Many insurance plans cover breast reduction when it's medically necessary to alleviate physical symptoms such as chronic pain, skin conditions, or postural problems. Coverage requirements vary by insurance provider but typically require documentation of symptoms, conservative treatment attempts, and a minimum amount of tissue to be removed. Our practice can help you navigate the insurance pre-authorization process and determine your coverage eligibility.
How much will my breasts be reduced?
The amount of reduction depends on your body proportions, current breast size, and aesthetic goals. During your consultation, Dr. Nwaoz will help you determine the ideal breast size that will provide symptom relief while creating beautiful, proportionate results. While bra sizes aren't standardized, most patients can provide a general idea of their desired cup size. The goal is to create breasts that are comfortable, attractive, and in harmony with your overall body frame.
What is the recovery like after breast reduction?
Most patients experience manageable discomfort for the first few days, controlled with prescribed pain medication. You'll wear a surgical support garment for several weeks to promote healing. Many patients return to light desk work within one week, with more strenuous activities gradually resumed over 4-6 weeks. Swelling and bruising improve significantly within the first two weeks. Dr. Nwaoz will provide detailed post-operative instructions and closely monitor your healing throughout recovery.
Will I have visible scars?
All breast reduction techniques result in some scarring, but Dr. Nwaoz uses advanced surgical techniques and places incisions strategically to minimize their visibility. Scars typically follow the natural contours of the breast and fade significantly over time. Most patients find that the dramatic improvement in breast size, shape, and comfort far outweighs concerns about scarring. Dr. Nwaoz will discuss scar placement and expectations during your consultation.
Can I breastfeed after breast reduction?
While many women can breastfeed successfully after breast reduction, the ability to do so depends on the surgical technique used and the amount of tissue removed. Modern reduction techniques aim to preserve the milk ducts and nipple sensation whenever possible. If future breastfeeding is important to you, discuss this with Dr. Nwaoz during your consultation so he can plan your surgery accordingly.
How long do breast reduction results last?
Breast reduction results are generally long-lasting and permanent. While your breasts will continue to age naturally and be affected by factors such as weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and gravity, they will remain significantly smaller than before surgery. Maintaining a stable weight and wearing proper support can help preserve your results for many years.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please bring a list of current medications and supplements, any relevant medical records or test results, and a list of questions you'd like to discuss. If you have reference photos showing your desired breast size or shape, feel free to bring those as well. Wear comfortable clothing that's easy to change in and out of for the examination portion of your consultation.
