Plastic Surgery: Can Breast Reduction Bring Back Your Confidence?

Breast augmentation is a surgery that is talked about often because it has become a common plastic surgery procedure. One of the things that may not get plenty of chatter is breast reduction surgery.

There are many women who have had breast reduction surgery, and many others are considering the procedure. A good thing about breast reduction surgery is that it is generally covered by your insurance, but breast implant surgery is not covered by insurance. 

There are numerous reasons why a woman will want to consider a breast reduction surgery. 

Discomfort

If you have large breasts, you will often feel some discomfort while trying to do certain things. You may not be able to run, exercise, or do any other activities because your breasts make them really uncomfortable. You may also have some problems breathing because the weight of your breasts is placed on your chest cavity. If you find that your bra straps are cutting into your shoulders, this can be because of the extra weight that is in the bra. This can be too much weight for your bra straps to handle. 

Pain in the Back

If you have larger breasts, you will typically suffer from plenty of back pain, especially in your lower back. This back pain occurs because of the extra weight that you have to carry on your chest. It can be common to have lower back pain if you have a larger breast size, but you and your doctor should make a decision on if your back pain is caused by the size and weight of your breasts. If your breast size is the culprit behind your back pain, then a breast reduction can help provide some relief.

If you feel uncomfortable or if you do not like your appearance, you should feel comfortable in changing it. If you feel that you cannot fit into your clothes properly, if you are worried about what people may say about you, etc., breast reduction surgery can be the solution to your problems. There are several reasons why women will choose to have breast reduction surgery, but in the end it will be a personal decision.
