Breast Reduction in Miami, Florida

Miami breast reduction surgeon, Dr. Sam Gershenbaum combines modern technology with vast experience to offer the best breast reduction surgery in Florida.

For many women, the size, shape, and contour of their breasts do not fit their self-image. Women with unusually large, sagging, or uneven breasts are dissatisfied with their physical appearance. Some experience pain and discomfort due to the weight of their breasts and the pressure of bra straps on their shoulders and neck. Excessively large breasts can affect posture, limit physical activity and exercise, and make it difficult to find properly fitting clothes. Ungainly stares and rude comments may further promote a feeling of self-consciousness, limiting confidence and adding psychological strain to the physical symptoms.

At our Miami, Florida center, we offer breast reduction or reduction mammaplasty to reduce and lift overly large and sagging breasts to a more comfortable size and shape. Breast reduction surgery improves body contour, reduces pain, and increases comfort in daily activities and exercise. Breast reduction is generally performed on women who have fully developed breasts, but occasionally, it is necessary in teenage girls who suffer from the physical and psychological symptoms of overly large breasts. Patient satisfaction with breast reduction is exceedingly high, and a great majority of women who have had this procedure wish they had had the procedure earlier.

An ideal breast reduction candidate is uncomfortable with their large and/or asymmetric breasts. Patients must also be free of medical conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, skin/connective tissue disorders, etc. If pregnancy is planned for the "near" future, it is best to wait until well after breast-feeding is complete.

Breast Reduction - The Consultation

During the initial consultation with Miami breast reduction surgeon Sam Gershenbaum, you will review numerous before and after photos from previous breast reduction procedures. The procedure is explained in complete detail, and treatment variations are discussed to meet your particular needs. Dr. Gershenbaum also uses this consultation to get to know his patients on a personal level, developing a level of patient-surgeon trust that he feels is necessary for a comfortable surgical process.

The breasts are examined to ensure that expectations can be met, as well as to review the surgical plans and the incision/scar placement. Every patient has different expectations, and Dr. Gershenbaum will formulate a procedure plan to meet your individual needs. The doctor and his staff are always available to answer questions concerning breast reduction at our Miami, Florida center.
