Culturally speaking, many men and women prize large breasts. But often large, heavy breasts can cause complications such as shoulder pain, back pain, and neck pain. Many woman with large, sagging breasts opt to undergo a breast reduction. This patient wanted her Austin-Weston surgeon to reduce the size of her breasts and lift her nipples to give her a more attractive shape. Using an anchor incision, which leaves scars that are easy to conceal under the breasts, her doctor removed excess tissue and tightened the skin to give her the desired results. This successful female breast reduction is a good example of how bigger is not always better.
