What is Breast Reduction Surgery?

Breast Reduction surgery is a procedure to decrease the size of the breasts and uplift and tailor the shape to the patient's desire.

Your breast tissue is reshaped and raised so that your breasts are lifted and more shapely. The surgery will include some removal of breast tissue to achieve the intended outcome.

What Makes a Suitable Candidate for Breast Reduction in Kent?

If you have concerns over the size, sagging or weight of your breasts then you may be suitable for breast reduction surgery if you are over 18. However it is important to note that if you are planning to lose weight/ are overweight, planning on children in the future or are recently pregnant/breastfeeding then it may not be the best time to undergo this procedure.

A full health assessment will be carried out before your procedure, and if you are a smoker or have any major health concerns then you could be advised to wait or to avoid breast reduction surgery.

The Procedure for Breast Reduction in Kent

There are different methods depending on your preference and anatomy. The surgery is usually done under local anaesthetic with sedation. Incisions are made into your skin and breast tissue is removed and reshaped to create your desired look and uplift.  

Breast Reduction Combination Surgery in Kent

At Minor Surgery Clinic Breast reduction may be performed in combination with other procedures such as liposuction (Arms, Legs) or abdominoplasty. This would affect the cost and duration of surgery.

What Contributes to a Successful Surgery

At Minor Surgery Clinic Breast reduction may be performed in combination with other procedures such as liposuction (Arms, Legs) or abdominoplasty. This would affect the cost and duration of surgery.

Breast reduction surgery has a high success rate, and most patients are very satisfied with their results. Achieving the best outcome depends on several key factors:

  • Preparation: Following your surgeon’s preoperative advice and being physically and mentally ready.
  • Choosing the Right Procedure: Selecting the technique that best suits your anatomy and goals.
  • Surgical Expertise: The skill and experience of your surgeon during the operation.
  • Recovery: Adhering to post-operative care instructions to support healing and optimise results.

Every step of the journey is important, and careful attention at each stage helps ensure a safe procedure and the best possible outcome.

Possible Risks and Complications

As with any surgical procedure, complications can occur, and it’s important to be aware of the potential risks. Your surgeon will take every precaution to minimise these risks, including providing preoperative guidance, maintaining strict safety measures during surgery, and giving detailed post-operative care instructions.

Some possible complications may include:
  • Slow or delayed healing
  • Infection or bleeding
  • Poor or noticeable scarring
  • Asymmetry between breasts
  • Pain, numbness, or changes in skin sensitivity
  • Contour irregularities
  • Seroma (fluid accumulation)
  • Blood clots in the legs or lungs
  • Loss of nipple sensation or tissue
  • Recurrence of breast sagging over time
While serious complications are uncommon, understanding these risks helps you make an informed decision and follow your surgeon’s advice closely for the best possible outcome.

What is the Breast Reduction Recovery & Aftercare?

After Surgery
Following breast reduction surgery, your incisions will be covered with surgical tapes, and you will need to wear a supportive bra for approximately six weeks. The procedure is usually performed as a day case or may require an overnight stay in the hospital. You can carefully shower after 48 hours, taking care not to disturb the dressings or incisions.

Recovery
Most patients need 1 to 2 weeks off work to rest and allow initial healing. For six weeks, avoid heavy lifting and any strenuous activity. Some light forms of exercise can often be resumed after around four weeks, while most exercise should wait until the six-week mark. Driving should only be resumed once you are confident and able to safely perform an emergency stop.

Following these guidelines helps ensure a smoother recovery and the best possible results from your breast reduction in Kent.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about Breast Reduction surgery in Kent
What is breast reduction surgery?
Breast reduction surgery, also called reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce the size and weight of the breasts. It can relieve physical discomfort, improve posture, and enhance body proportion while creating a firmer, more lifted appearance.
Who is a good candidate for breast reduction?
Ideal candidates are individuals experiencing discomfort from overly large breasts, including back, neck, or shoulder pain, skin irritation, or restricted physical activity. Candidates should be in good overall health, at a stable weight, and have realistic expectations about the results.
What is the recovery time after breast reduction surgery?
Recovery usually involves 1 to 2 weeks off work, depending on your job and activity level. Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise should be avoided for about six weeks. Light activity can often resume after four weeks, and most patients can safely return to normal exercise after six weeks.
Are breast reduction results permanent?
Results are long-lasting, but factors such as pregnancy, weight fluctuations, and natural ageing can affect the size and shape of your breasts over time. Following a healthy lifestyle helps maintain results, but occasional revision procedures are possible if significant changes occur.
What are the risks and complications of breast reduction surgery?
Breast reduction is generally safe, but potential risks include slow healing, infection, scarring, asymmetry, changes in nipple sensation, contour irregularities, seroma (fluid buildup), and recurrence of sagging. Choosing a qualified, experienced surgeon significantly reduces these risks.
How much does breast reduction surgery cost in the UK?
Breast reduction costs vary depending on the surgeon, technique, and location. On average, prices range from £5,000 to £8,000. The cost typically includes pre-op consultations, surgery fees, anaesthesia, and follow-up care. Private consultations can provide a personalised quote.
