Almost all women dream of having full breasts. However, sometimes an overly large bust looks unattractive or even causes some discomfort. In such cases, modern plastic surgery can help reduce breast size and significantly improve their shape. At our plastic surgery clinic, you can undergo breast reduction surgery in Kyiv with renowned plastic surgeon Dmitry Sloser.
When is breast reduction necessary
Most often, women whose breasts have changed significantly after pregnancy and prolonged breastfeeding decide to undergo this type of surgery. You can also reduce your bust after dramatic weight loss—against the backdrop of a slimmer body, large and often sagging breasts look unattractive. Surgical intervention also allows you to eliminate breast asymmetry—in some patients, one breast may be one or two sizes larger than the other. During the operation, the size of the areolas can also be reduced. Breast reduction surgery is also called reduction mammoplasty.
How much does it cost

Why having large breasts can be harmful
- Over time, deformation or displacement of the spinal discs may occur
- Curvature of the spine is reflected in pain in the neck and lower back
- The appearance of chafing and inflammation in the area under the breasts (in the fold)
- Difficulty in performing certain examinations (mammography, ultrasound of the mammary glands)
- Restricted physical activity and constant discomfort in everything related to movement.
- However, these indications alone are not sufficient for breast reduction surgery. There are a number of restrictions that are equally important and should be taken into account:
- After reduction mammoplasty, the breasts will not be able to produce milk. This means that you will not be able to breastfeed your baby, so if you are planning to give birth in the near future after the operation, be aware that you will have to take medication to suppress lactation and feed your baby with formula. Otherwise, postpone breast reduction surgery until after you have given birth and breastfed your baby.
- Breast reduction cannot be performed if there are contraindications
You should also be prepared for the possibility of some postoperative complications. These are rare, but occur in 1-1.5 percent of cases, according to global statistics:
- Bleeding (occurs rarely enough not to be a cause for concern). In addition, a thorough examination before surgery reveals all disorders that could lead to bleeding, and such patients are usually not allowed to undergo surgery.
- Suppuration and infection occur even less frequently, as hygiene and sterility in modern clinics are at the highest level
- Hematomas occur in no more than 5% of patients and in most cases resolve without consequences
- Loss of sensitivity in the nipple and areola area may be observed
- Cases of breast asymmetry are also not uncommon. However, this is practically invisible and does not cause any concern for patients.
Therefore, if you still decide to seek the help of a surgeon, please contact highly qualified specialists with a good reputation. You can have breast reduction surgery in Ukraine at our clinic in Kyiv with professional surgeon Dmitry Slosser, who has performed over 7,000 plastic surgeries and is qualified as the best specialist in his field.
How the operation is performed
Before deciding on reduction mammoplasty, the patient visits a plastic surgeon for a consultation. The woman simply needs to express her wishes regarding the shape and size of her new breasts, and the doctor will select the appropriate technique for the operation.
Breast reduction is always performed under general anesthesia. Before the operation, the doctor marks the areas of the future incisions on the woman's body. If the breasts are normal in shape and only need to be reduced slightly, the plastic surgeon usually resorts to liposuction. In all other cases, when the size and shape of the mammary gland need to be corrected, small incisions are necessary.
When reducing the breasts, the suture can be vertical (straight from the nipple to the inframammary fold) or T-shaped (a straight suture connects to a horizontal suture in the inframammary fold). Through the incisions, the surgeon removes excess fatty tissue and, if necessary, breast tissue, then corrects the shape of the areola and repositions the nipple. The operation can last from 40 minutes to 2 hours. Upon completion of all manipulations, the doctor applies sutures using self-absorbing threads.
The patient soon regains consciousness after general anesthesia, but she will have to stay in the clinic under the supervision of medical staff for another 2-3 days.
Result
In the first days after breast reduction, breast swelling, small hematomas, and soreness are observed, which are successfully eliminated with painkillers. Objectively, the result can be assessed after a few months. By this time, barely noticeable whitish stripes remain from the sutures, and the breasts acquire the desired shape and optimal size.
