About Manhattan
Manhattan is the most populated borough of New York City and has a population of over 1.6 million residents. The borough is mostly made up of Manhattan Island and is surrounded by the Hudson River, East River, and Harlem River. As the heart of the “Big Apple,” it’s considered the cultural, industrial, and financial center of the world. It’s home to Times Square, the Empire State Building, Central Park, and Broadway. You can also find Wall Street, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Rockefeller Center, and the Chrysler Building. As part of one of the most populous cities in the world, Manhattan is where you can find a diverse range of people, shops, restaurants, and entertainment opportunities.
What is Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction is a very common cosmetic procedure designed to reduce the size of your breasts. For those struggling with overly large breasts and the pain and irritation often associated with them, a breast reduction can offer significant relief. The procedure removes excess breast tissue to reduce the volume of your breasts while also lifting them to provide a better size and shape.
At our practice, Dr. Wallach uses a limited incision technique to ensure you never have to deal with substantial scarring.
Who is a Candidate for Breast Reduction?
While most patients who come to us with overly large breasts are good candidates for breast reduction, there are some criteria we look for when determining a patient’s eligibility for this life-changing procedure.
Ideal Candidates for Breast Reduction in Manhattan Are:
- In good overall health
- Have overly large breasts that are negatively affecting your everyday life
- Have realistic expectations
- Nonsmokers
- Not pregnant or breastfeeding
- At or near your ideal weight
- Experiencing back, neck, or shoulder pain, skin irritation, or indentations from bra straps
During your consultation, we’ll review your medical history, list of medications, and concerns, perform an exam, and answer all your questions to help determine if this is the right procedure for you.
Breast Reduction Benefits
Breast reduction in Manhattan offers several different benefits, including the following:
- Versatile procedure: Depending on the amount of tissue removed and the results you’re looking for, Dr. Wallach can choose from a number of different breast reduction surgical techniques. Because there are so many techniques (including vertical, horizontal, and wise patterns), the procedure can be customized for each and every patient.
- Boost confidence: Most patients notice a boost in confidence once they are no longer dealing with overly large breasts. Patients feel more comfortable in their clothes, more secure when exercising, and more at home in their bodies.
- Long-lasting results: The results of a breast reduction are generally considered permanent. That said, age, weight fluctuations, and pregnancy can cause changes to your breast size and appearance.
- Lessen pain and irritation: The primary benefit of a breast reduction that many patients notice is less pain overall and less skin irritation in the breast crease. With less breast tissue, there is less weight on your back, neck, and shoulders, which ensures less pain and discomfort.
