How Much Does a Breast Reduction Cost?

The cost of your breast reduction will vary depending on your specific goals and customized treatment plan. This procedure may or may not be covered by insurance and is determined on a case-by-case basis. We do offer financing through CareCredit® and Alphaeon® Credit to help you afford the cost of your procedure. Pricing can be discussed during your breast reduction consultation.

How Long is Recovery from Breast Reduction Surgery?

Recovery from a breast reduction procedure will vary depending on each individual. However, most patients should be able to return to work within a week. Excessive physical activity should be avoided for the first couple of weeks, and lifting, pulling, and pushing should be avoided during recovery.

Additional FAQs About Breast Reduction

As with any form of plastic surgery, breast reduction surgery is associated with some potential risks. These include, but are not limited to: adverse reaction to anesthesia, changes in sensation, scarring, allergic reactions, and infection.
Following your breast reduction procedure, you may be required to wear a special supportive bra to help minimize swelling and support the breasts during healing. Pain medication can be used to control discomfort. It is important to follow all patient care instructions provided by your surgeon to ensure a quick and safe recovery and see the breast reduction you desire.
Breast reduction surgery is an invasive procedure and will result in some scarring. However, the location of the scarring will depend on the breast surgery incision created during your procedure. Our surgeons always try to minimize scarring as much as possible.
Many patients are able to return to work within a week, depending on the nature of their job. However, it is important to discuss this with your surgeon and work to follow your exact post-surgery care instructions.
As long as your nipple and areola are still attached to the breast tissue beneath them, breastfeeding may be possible. Typically, a breast reduction does not affect the nipple and areola, so you should have no issues. However, nerves are vital to breastfeeding, so if the nerves, milk ducts, and breast tissue are disrupted in any way, this may limit your milk flow and diminish sensation in your nipples.
We always encourage exercise; however, it is important to wait until your surgeon clears you for this. After your breast reduction recovery is complete, you can feel free to return to basic physical activity. Be sure to follow your specific post-op instructions provided by your breast reduction surgeon for optimal results.
Before your breast reduction, many surgeons recommend a baseline mammogram before surgery. Patients should also stop smoking about four to six weeks before surgery and avoid taking aspirin, certain anti-inflammatory drugs, and certain supplements. Preparation for your breast reduction procedure will be discussed during your consultation.
