Breast Reduction

Breast Reduction surgery in dubai

Having overly large breasts can cause physical discomfort and emotional distress. Breast reduction surgery in Dubai, also known as reduction mammaplasty, is designed to reshape and resize the breasts by removing excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin. 

At CosmeSurge, we offer expert breast reduction procedures to refine your body shape and restore natural balance. The result is a smaller, more proportionate bust that aligns beautifully with your body frame, enhancing comfort, confidence, and quality of life.

What is breast reduction surgery?

Breast reduction surgery is a reconstructive and cosmetic procedure that reduces breast size while reshaping the tissue for a lifted, natural appearance. 

The surgery not only transforms body contour but also relieves chronic neck, shoulder, and back pain often linked to large breasts.

During the procedure, your plastic surgeon removes excess skin and breast tissue, repositions the nipples for symmetry, and reshapes the breasts for a lighter, firmer look. 

Many women who undergo breast reduction in Dubai describe it as life-changing, freeing them from physical discomfort and restoring ease in movement and confidence in appearance.

Who is a good candidate?

You may be an ideal candidate for breast reduction surgery in Dubai or Abu Dhabi if you experience:

  • Persistent back, neck, or shoulder pain due to heavy breasts
  • Skin irritation or rashes beneath the breast fold
  • Grooves on the shoulders caused by bra straps
  • Postural problems or breathing issues
  • Difficulty exercising or finding well-fitting clothes
  • Self-consciousness about breast size

Non-surgical measures, such as posture exercises or supportive bras, may provide temporary relief, but surgery remains the most effective and lasting solution when symptoms persist.

Benefits of breast reduction surgery

Undergoing breast reduction in Dubai offers more than aesthetic improvement. It enhances your daily comfort and emotional wellbeing.

  • Better posture and physical relief from pain in the back, neck, and shoulders
  • Improved confidence and body proportion
  • Freedom in clothing choices and more balanced silhouettes
  • Ease in performing physical activity and exercise
  • Healthier skin, reducing irritation or inflammation under the breasts
  • Long-lasting, natural-looking results with improved self-image

Many patients describe breast reduction as the surgery that changed their lives, restoring energy, confidence, and ease in movement.

How the procedure is performed

Breast reduction surgery is typically performed under general anaesthesia and takes about 2 to 4 hours, depending on the surgical technique and the amount of tissue removed.

Common Surgical Techniques:

  • Liposuction-only reduction – for mild size reduction using suction to remove fat.
  • Vertical (Lollipop) incision – around the areola and vertically down the breast for moderate reductions.
  • Anchor incision – around the areola, down to and across the crease; used for significant reductions.
  • Periareolar or “Donut” incision (Benelli technique) – Encircles only the areola; used for minor reductions and nipple repositioning with minimal visible scars.

After reshaping, the nipple and areola are repositioned higher to match the new contour, and the incisions are closed with fine sutures for minimal scarring.

Recovery & aftercare

Most patients are discharged on the same day, although some may require an overnight stay for monitoring.

Typical recovery milestones include:

  • Mild swelling and discomfort for the first few days
  • Return to light work in 5 to 7 days (2 weeks for physically active jobs)
  • Resume exercise after 4 to 6 weeks (under surgeon’s guidance)
  • Final results are visible within 3 to 6 months as swelling subsides

Aftercare Tips:

  • Wear a supportive surgical bra for 4 to 6 weeks
  • Avoid lifting heavy objects or sleeping on your stomach
  • Keep incisions clean and dry
  • Attend all post-operative appointments for the best healing outcomes
Risks & safety considerations

At CosmeSurge, safety is our foremost priority. All procedures are conducted by board-certified plastic surgeons in accredited facilities.

Possible side effects include:

  • Temporary swelling or numbness
  • Scarring (which fades gradually over 12 to 18 months)
  • Minor asymmetry or delayed healing in some cases
  • Rarely, a partial loss of nipple sensation or breastfeeding difficulty

Your surgeon will discuss these risks transparently and provide you with pre-surgical instructions to minimise complications and ensure a smooth recovery.
