Frequently asked questions
Can I breastfeed after a breast reduction?
It is technically possible — modern techniques preserve the glandular pedicle. Breastfeeding capacity is nonetheless reduced. If you are planning pregnancies, we will look at the right timing together.
How much volume can be removed?
Typically 300–800 g per side. The aim is not to "remove as much as possible": it is to reach the right proportion. We decide it together during the consultation.
Will the scars be obvious?
Yes, more than with a mastopexy: an inverted-T scar is needed in most cases. They fade over 12–18 months. It is the aesthetic price for the functional relief this procedure brings.
