Read on to see why you should choose Beverly Hills Body when considering Los Angeles cosmetic surgery.

Women with extremely large breasts may suffer from back and neck pain, irritation under the breasts and soreness where bra straps cut into their shoulders. Further, clothing can be difficult to find and it can make some feel self-conscious about their breast size.

For many Beverly Hills breast reduction patients, the procedure is not generally considered a cosmetic procedure. If you suffer physical pain, discomfort or other disabilities as a result of very large or oversized breasts, breast reduction will often be covered by your medical insurance. Check with your insurance provider for more information on your plan's benefits.

The incision is usually made along the areola. Flaps are created on both sides of the breast and the excess skin, fat, and glandular tissues are extracted. In most cases the nipples are moved to a higher position on the breast, but remain attached to the nerves and blood vessels. For very large breasts, however, the nipples may need to be moved and grafted to a completely new location. In these cases, the nipples are removed from the underlying connecting tissues and you will lose sensation in the nipple and areola.

The nipple and areola are usually moved to a new position. The position of the nipple is usually vertically level with the crease on the underside of the breast. After surgery, the flaps of skin (that were once above the nipple) are refolded around and beneath the breast, pulled to the front of the breast around the nipple, and sutured in place. The reduction of breast tissue and skin reduces the weight of the breast and reshapes it into proportion.

Upon completion of the procedure, stitches remain around the areola and nipple area, in a vertical line beneath the nipple and horizontally under the breast. If the breasts were not too overly large, then some surgical techniques can avoid the horizontal scar altogether.

Recovery

After breast reduction surgery, it is often possible to return to work within just a couple of weeks, depending on your job. In many instances, you can resume most of your normal activities, including some form of mild exercise, after several weeks. You may continue to experience some mild, periodic discomfort during this time, but such feelings are normal.
