What are the risks of breast reduction surgery?

Like any surgical procedure, breast reduction comes with potential risks and complications:

Scarring: Our surgeons will aim to keep scarring to a minimum. However, cuts are necessary to access breast tissue, and scarring can vary from person to person, depending on individual healing.

Uneven breasts: After the procedure, one breast might heal differently than the other, which can result in uneven appearance.

Change in nipple and breast sensation: The nerves in the nipples and breast may be impacted during the surgery, which can cause reduced sensitivity or numbness.

Difficulty breastfeeding: The procedure may disrupt milk-producing tissue, making breastfeeding challenging in the future. If you plan to have children, please discuss this with us to find the most suitable approach.
