Ballwin & St. Louis Breast Reduction & Lift
Get the Confident Shape You Deserve
If you feel self-conscious that your breasts are too large, a breast reduction (and lift) at Willis Cosmetic Surgery can help resize and reshape your chest — and boost your confidence.
Over the years, Dr. Zachary Willis has perfected his techniques for breast reductions/lifts. Whatever your breast enhancement goals are, Dr. Willis will listen to your needs and design a custom plan to give you the results you’re looking for.
What Is Breast Reduction/Lift?
Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that reduces the size and weight of large breasts. It helps achieve a breast size in proportion to your body and alleviates discomfort associated with overly large breasts.
The procedure involves removing excess breast fat, glandular tissue, and skin to achieve a breast size that is more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Dr. Willis carefully plans and performs each procedure to meet the specific needs and aesthetic goals of each patient.
This procedure not only enhances physical appearance and comfort but also addresses physical issues such as neck and back pain, skin irritation, skeletal deformities, and breathing problems caused by the weight of large breasts.
Dr. Willis uses advanced surgical techniques that focus on minimizing scarring and optimizing recovery. This allows you to return to a more active lifestyle and achieve a renewed sense of confidence with your new body shape.
Why Breast Reduction/Lift at Willis Cosmetic Surgery?
There are several reasons why women might want a breast reduction or breast lift. Women might want their breasts reduced if they’ve had children or are overweight, genetically predisposed to large or disproportionate breasts, or sensitive to the hormone estrogen.
Big breasts can run in a family, inherited from mothers and grandmothers.
On the other hand, a breast lift is an excellent way to improve:
- Sagging or uneven breasts
- Decreased breast volume
- Drooping nipples
- Stretched areolas
The result is increased confidence from a more youthful and firm breast shape.
What Results to Expect With Breast Reduction/Lift
After a breast reduction procedure, patients typically notice an immediate change in their physique. The reduction in breast size helps achieve a more balanced body shape and often leads to an improvement in overall posture.
Many of Dr. Willis’s patients report a significant reduction in neck, back, and shoulder pain, which was previously exacerbated by the weight of their breasts. Additionally, the discomfort from bra straps digging into shoulders often disappears, and physical activities become more comfortable and enjoyable.
During the procedure, breasts not only become smaller but are also reshaped and lifted. This leads to a more youthful breast contour and can dramatically enhance clothing fit and appearance. The emotional and psychological benefits following the surgery are profound as well; many patients experience a boost in self-esteem and confidence.
While results are immediately visible, final outcomes may take several months to fully develop as swelling subsides and incision lines fade. Dr. Willis ensures that all patients receive comprehensive post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments to monitor their recovery and optimize their results.
