Breast ReductionLighter, Higher, and Back in ProportionBefore and After

Straight on, you can see what a breast reduction actually fixes. Before surgery the breasts were heavy, low and wide, and that weight pulls on the neck, the shoulders and the bra straps every single day. After her reduction with Dr. Suzanne Trott, the breasts are smaller, higher and narrower, and the whole torso looks lighter.

From the angled view, notice the fold beneath the breast. Before, the breast rested against the abdomen with no space underneath. After surgery there is a clean crease, the nipple sits at the center of the breast mound, and the shape is round instead of pendulous. That is structure, not just size.

In profile the difference is dramatic. The breast no longer hangs off the chest wall; it projects from it. Patients tell me the physical relief comes first, and then one day they catch their reflection and realize they finally look the way they always felt they should. That is what a well-done breast reduction gives you.
