Breast Reduction Knoxville - Plastic Surgery Knoxville - Knoxville Breast Reduction

Many of Dr. Reath's happiest patients are Knoxville women who have had breast reduction surgery! Most of them we talk to have back and shoulder pain from the weight of their breasts and have trouble exercising as well as finding clothes that fit. A breast reduction can help.

The goal of the operation is to reduce the breasts to a size more in proportion with the rest of a woman's body. Once they are the desired size, Dr. Reath gives them a lift as well. There are different techniques Dr. Reath uses depending on the size of the breasts to begin with. There will be incisions on the breast itself but he limits them as much as possible.

Here are examples of Dr. Reath's breast reduction patients:

Before & After Reduction: This is a 20-year-old student who was uncomfortable with her heavy breasts. She wore a 38DD bra and didn't feel comfortable in her clothes. Dr. Reath performed a breast reduction. Now she is able to be more active and find clothes that are flattering to her new figure.

Before and after breast reduction: Here is a 23-year old woman who wore a DD bra and was having problems with neck and shoulder pain. She had not had any children. These pictures are taken 3 months after her breast reduction surgery. She tells us she is much more active and the pain in her neck and shoulders has magically disappeared!                            Before                                                             After                              Before                                                        After                      Before                                                                        After Above photographs are actual patients of Dr. Reath's who have given consent for the use of their photographs for this website.

Before and After Breast Reduction: Here is a 33-year-old who is 5'6" and weighs 170 pounds. She came to us explaining that her large breasts were interfering with her work, causing neck pain and preventing her from exercising properly. She told us that she had always had large breasts with her right side larger than her left. She wanted to go from a DDplus down to the C-cup range. Dr. Reath performed a breast reduction and she now has complete relief of her neck and back pain and is much more physically active. The photographs are taken three months after her surgery and the redness on her incision area will continue to fade over the next year.

The Operation

The good news is that breast reduction can be performed on an outpatient basis. The operation takes between 3 and 4 hours and women can go home after they have recovered from anesthesia.

Recovery

Helping our patients manage a speedy recovery is one of our primary missions. This is a very well tolerated operation by most women. Generally, their neck and back feel better the night after surgery, than they did prior to the operation. Most women are up and about the day after surgery and generally take between 2 and 3 weeks off from work.

New! We now include medical-grade silicone shapes (which are medically proven to aid in healing and reduce the appearance of scars) in all of our breast reduction recovery kits. (an $80 value)

Note

In some cases, breast reductions are considered “medically necessary” and not cosmetic in nature.  At times, insurance companies will cover some portion of these procedures.  When this is the case we do still require the full physician fee to be paid up front, however, we will file a claim, as a courtesy, following your operation to help you attain some reimbursement.
