Breast Reduction in San Diego

Breast reduction, technically known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes both skin and tissue, making the breasts smaller, firmer and higher. Of all the plastic surgical procedures, breast reduction results in a noticeable improvement in both appearance and  function. Many of our San Diego / Del Mar breast lift patients with large breasts (macromastia or gigantomastia) complain of neck pain, back pain, bra strap cuts, and/or intertriginous rashes. A well-performed breast reduction can eliminate all of these symptoms and result in much more beautiful-looking breasts.

Dr. Chasan uses a superior pedicle approach in the majority of breast reduction procedures. This technique results in smaller scars than the traditional inferior pedicle breast reduction, and the breasts are much less prone to bottoming out (drooping of the bottom part of the breast). The procedure is performed by making an incision around the areola and extending downward following the natural curve beneath the breast. Excess tissue, skin and fat are removed, and the nipple and areola are lifted.

Dr. Chasan encourages women who feel self-conscious due to disproportionately large breasts to contact his offices at 858-450-1555 or click here to schedule a consultation.
