Concerns Addressed With Breast Reduction

Many women endure daily discomfort and activity limitation because their breasts are overly large; this can be fixed with a breast reduction or reshaping. For some, large breasts are genetic; one or more family members may have had the same problem. Others may develop disproportionately large breasts with weight gain, hormonal change, or aging. Symptoms can include:

  • Shoulder, back, and neck pain.
  • Shoulder grooving and rashes under the breasts.
  • Poor posture.
  • Difficulty finding clothes that fit well.
  • Limitations in activities such as running or working out.
  • A “matronly appearance” that results in feeling unattractive.
  • Self-consciousness from the attention their breasts draw.

Breast Reduction Real Patient Story

This 54-year-old woman had large breasts and many of the usual symptoms, including neck and back pain, shoulder grooving, and poor posture. She felt “thick around the middle” and disliked her matronly appearance. Activity limitation was significant. She chose a breast reduction with reshaping as she wanted a nice shape, not just smaller breasts.

What to Expect

My Approach to Breast Reduction or Reshaping

The breast reduction I conduct is more of a breast reshaping. Through consultation with patients and based on my years of experience, I revise the breasts to a smaller size that works well with the patient’s frame.

Changes in medical insurance mean that some doctors have an incentive to surgically complete a breast reduction as quickly as possible. However, I believe that attention to detail is more important than attention to the bottom line. That’s why I take the time necessary to ensure that:

  • Breasts are smaller, lifted, and made less wide. A pretty shape and proportional contour are my top goals.

  • The results are appropriately round and shapely. Big breasts also tend to be broad, so it’s important to make them both shorter and narrower for an attractive curve.

The glandular tissue has the support it needs to prevent drooping in the future.

What You Can Expect With Breast Reduction or Reshaping

Plastic Surgical Associates provides an in-house suite of operating rooms. We are fully accredited by AAAASF and utilize only board-certified anesthesiologists and ACLS-licensed support staff.

Patients receive general anesthesia to stay comfortable during surgery. When I perform a breast reduction and reshaping, I do so by:

  • Lifting the skin and revising and repositioning the gland.

  • Shaping the resized breast to have a round, natural-looking contour.

  • Giving the breast greater support by connecting it to the stronger, deeper-level fascia.

Adding this support can keep the breast in its proper position, even when a patient is lying down. It can also provide more lift and perkiness as the patient ages.

If you are experiencing physical or personal discomfort related to your breasts, talk with Dr. Duncan about breast reduction surgery in Denver & Fort Collins, CO.

NEO resolving chronic back pain

“I had chronic back pain before I started EmSculpt Neo treatment. I could never bend over without having a lot of pain. Now, even three months after treatment, I can move freely without issue! I can lie on the floor or the couch, do workouts, and stand for long periods of time without any back issues whatsoever. I highly recommend this treatment.”

I immediately felt comfortable

Most of my life, I was happy with my C-cup breast size. But after having four children and turning 41, my breasts were small and sagging and barely an A-cup! I made a consultation appointment with Dr. Duncan because of her 20+ years of experience, and at my initial consultation, I immediately felt comfortable. Dr. Duncan listened to me and took the time to answer all of my questions. I consulted with two other plastic surgeons, who both recommended an implant size larger than that of Dr. Duncan. I would have been very unhappy with breasts larger than I have now!! I definitely made the right choice in selecting Dr. Duncan for my breast augmentation.

Everything went smoothly and healed up great

“I had a rhinoplasty with Dr. Duncan about a month and a half ago. Everything went smoothly and healed up great! I had to get a septoplasty as well with a different doctor, and she was so great with accommodating for that. Little to no bruising anywhere, just a scar where my nose was opened, but with scar cream it is fading slowly. I love my new nose!”
