Breast reduction surgery removes excess breast fat, glandular tissue and skin. Breast reduction aims to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body. The surgery may be performed to relieve the discomfort associated with overly large breasts. This operation is also called reduction mammoplasty.

Overly large breasts can cause some women both health and emotional problems. The physical discomfort may include back, neck and shoulder pain, and skin irritation beneath the breast crease. The weight of excess breast tissue can restrict a woman’s ability to lead an active life. Some women also feel very self-conscious about having large, pendulous breasts.

If you are concerned about the way you look or are thinking about this treatment, there are alternatives. These may include lifestyle changes or accepting yourself the way you are.

Talk with your surgeon about the risks and benefits of breast reduction surgery and what results you can expect. The results of this procedure should be permanent. However, over time, your breasts can change due to ageing, weight fluctuations, hormonal factors and gravity.

Dr Lee Ong is experienced in breast reduction surgery. To reserve an appointment or for more information please contact Dawn on 07 4032 0619 or at nurse@gardensmedical.com.au.

GP referrals can be faxed to 07 4032 0605.

Gynaecomastia and male breast reduction surgery

Gynaecomastia is the presence of excess breast tissue in males

Surgery for gynaecomastia aims to remove the excess breast tissue

As part of the pre-operative evaluation, a full hormonal screen will be employed to ensure there are no underlying causes.

An ultrasound scan will also be performed to clearly delineate and establish the size of the glandular tissue as well to ensure there is no suspicious mass within the breast tissue.

Surgery usually consists of a glandular excision and sometimes additional liposuction.

Surgery is performed under general anaesthetic with a one night stay in hospital.

Surgical drains are usually placed and are left in place for a period of approximately 24-48 hours.

Dr Lee Ong is experienced in the management and surgery of gynaecomastia.
