The weight of excess breast tissue can impair your ability to lead an active life, it can affect how your clothes fit, and the shape of your silhouette. It can also lead to physical pain and discomfort as well as cause emotional distress and self-consciousness. If you identify with any of these experiences, you might be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery. However, if you are still considering having more children, it might be best to delay breast reduction surgery. The best candidates for this surgery are:
- In good overall health
- Have realistic expectations
- Are non-smokers
- Are bothered by the size of your breasts
- Are limited in physical activity because of the size of breasts
- Experience back, neck, or shoulder pain because of the size of breasts
