Most patients are extremely pleased with the results of their breast reduction surgery. They tend to find that their self-confidence is boosted, and their self-image improves along with small changes like their clothes fitting better and big things like being more comfortable in their skin. Although the results from breast reduction surgery are considered permanent, your breasts will continue to change over time as they would naturally. For optimal results, your doctor will advise you to maintain your weight and take care of your health. Avoid smoking, eat a healthy diet of nutrient-rich foods, and exercise regularly.
