Breast surgeries - Mercyhealth

Overly large breasts can cause both health and emotional issues. The weight of excess breast tissue can cause pain and discomfort and keep you from an active life. Some women are also self-conscious and have self-image concerns.

Breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammaplasty, removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin. It can relieve:

• Back, neck and shoulder pain
• Skin irritation under the breast crease
• Bra strap indentations
• Being self-conscious about your breasts
