Reduce Size, Improve Balance, Relieve Pain
Hilton Head Island | Bluffton
Struggling with Heavy, Oversized Breasts?
Large breasts can cause chronic neck, back, and shoulder pain, restrict physical activity, and lead to skin irritation, bra strap indentations, and discomfort in everyday life. Breast reduction surgery (reduction mammaplasty) removes excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin, creating a lighter, more proportionate breast size while relieving physical and emotional strain.
At Hilton Head Plastic Surgery & Medspa, we specialize in personalized breast reduction procedures designed to restore comfort, confidence, and ease of movement while achieving a natural, balanced appearance.
Why Consider Breast Reduction?
- Relieves back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by excessive weight
- Improves posture and eliminates deep bra strap indentations
- Reduces sagging and reshapes the breasts for a firmer, more lifted look
- Allows for greater ease in physical activities and exercise
- Enhances clothing fit and expands wardrobe options
- Reduces skin irritation, rashes, and discomfort beneath the breasts
How Does the Procedure Work?
Common surgical technique:
- Incisions are made around the areola and extend downward along the breast’s natural contour
- Excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin are removed
- The nipple and areola are repositioned to maintain a natural, youthful look
- Liposuction may be used in some cases to achieve the desired size and shape
- Results are immediate, with the breasts appearing smaller, lifted, and more proportionate
What to Expect During Recovery
- Bandages and a supportive surgical bra will aid healing and minimize movement
- Swelling and mild discomfort are common but manageable with medication
- Most patients resume normal activities within a few weeks, with full recovery over several months
- Scars will fade over time, and results will continue to refine as swelling subsides
Breast reduction provides one of the most immediate and satisfying transformations, alleviating pain and improving confidence right away.

FAQS About Breast Reduction Surgery: Relief & Confidence
You may be a candidate if you experience physical discomfort such as back, neck, or shoulder pain due to large breasts, or if your breast size limits daily activities or causes emotional stress. A consultation can help determine if surgery is right for your needs.
Many patients report noticeable relief from chronic discomfort, including better posture, reduced back and neck strain, and improved mobility after breast reduction. The procedure can also ease skin irritation caused by bra straps or under-breast chafing.
Scars typically form around the areola and vertically down to the breast crease, and sometimes along the crease itself. While visible at first, they often fade over time with proper healing. Surgical techniques are designed to minimize and discreetly place scars.
Most patients return to light activity or work within 1 to 2 weeks. Full recovery—including swelling resolution and scar maturation—can take several months. You’ll be advised to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise for 4 to 6 weeks.
