Resize and reshape with breast reduction
Breast reduction removes excess tissue, skin, and fat to reshape and resize the breasts.
Breast reduction at a glance
A reduction removes extra breast tissue, fat, and skin to make the breasts smaller, lighter, more perky, and more proportionate.
Overview
Cosmetic breast reduction removes excess skin, fat, and breast tissue to reshape and resize to your desired breast size.
Recovery
Though everyone is unique, recovery time is typically 3-7 days with 6 weeks of water submersion.
Results
Most women feel and look better almost immediately. Though you’ll see improvements along the way, expect residual swelling to resolve and your true final results around 12 months post-op.

BRA LINE LIPOSuction
Did you know bra line lipo is included?
If you have a breast lift or breast reduction in an Amelia practice, you may be offered bra line liposuction as a part of it. In most Amelia practices, it is included in the cost of the procedure. Bra line liposuction permanently removes excess fat from the sides of the body and under the arm, much where a bra band lies. Combining bra line lipo with a breast lift or breast reduction gives more shape and contour to the breast where it meets the chest.
