Achieve Proportion, Comfort & Elegance
Breast Reduction: Sculpting Comfort & Confidence
For many women, overly large breasts can cause physical discomfort, posture issues, and emotional distress. Breast reduction surgery (reduction mammaplasty) removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to create a lighter, more proportionate, and aesthetically balanced breast size.
At Dr. Gregory LaTrenta’s private practice, breast reduction is more than just a size reduction—it is a tailored approach to sculpting a natural, harmonious silhouette that enhances confidence and improves quality of life.
Enhancing Comfort & Balance
What is a Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction surgery is a transformational procedure that removes excess breast tissue while preserving a natural shape and proportion. This procedure benefits patients by:
- Reducing excess volume for a lighter, more proportionate figure
- Eliminating back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by heavy breasts
- Improving posture and mobility for a more active lifestyle
- Correcting asymmetry for a balanced, natural look
- Enhancing confidence by creating a more refined silhouette
The Procedure: Precision for a Balanced, Natural Shape
Dr. LaTrenta customizes each breast reduction procedure to achieve a sculpted, natural shape while prioritizing minimal scarring and optimal healing.
Surgical Techniques & Incision Options
- Anchor (Inverted-T) Incision – The most common technique, creating incisions around the areola, vertically down the breast, and along the crease for a significant reduction and reshaping.
- Vertical (Lollipop) Incision – Suitable for moderate reductions, this incision extends around the areola with a vertical line down the breast, avoiding a crease incision.
- Liposuction-Only Reduction – Ideal for smaller reductions and patients with good skin elasticity, this technique removes excess fat through small incisions with minimal scarring.
Depending on the degree of sagging, Dr. LaTrenta may also recommend implants in conjunction with a breast lift to restore lost volume and enhance breast projection.
Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Surgery)
Excess breast tissue in men, known as gynecomastia, can be treated through:
- Excision of glandular tissue(surgical removal of dense breast tissue for a flatter chest contour)
- Liposuction to remove excess fat deposits
- Minimal scarring and quick recovery with office-based procedures
