Breast reduction removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce size and reshape the breasts. Beyond aesthetic improvement, the procedure often relieves back pain, neck pain, shoulder grooving from bra straps, skin irritation, and difficulty exercising or finding well-fitting clothing.
Dr. Pisarski removes tissue while preserving natural breast shape and, when possible, nipple sensation and future breastfeeding capability.The technique repositions the nipple and areola higher on the chest wall to match the new, smaller breast contour.
