Breast reduction surgery, performed by Dr. David J. Wages, is designed
to help patients with excessively large breasts improve their physical
comfort and emotional well-being. The surgery addresses the physical
strain and self-consciousness that often accompany large breasts,
allowing patients to experience relief from discomfort and limitations
on daily activities. Physical symptoms, such as back, neck, and
shoulder pain, along with shoulder indentations and skin irritation
under the breast crease, can often be alleviated through this
procedure.

OVERVIEW

IDEAL CANDIDATE:

This procedure may be suitable for those who are physically healthy,
have realistic expectations, and are affected by the size of their
breasts in ways that hinder physical activities, cause discomfort, or
impact their self-image.

PROCEDURE DETAILS:

Breast reduction involves removing excess breast tissue, skin, and fat
to achieve a breast size better suited to the patient’s physique and
lifestyle.

	* DURATION: Approximately 3 hours
	* ANESTHESIA: General anesthesia
	* RECOVERY: Patients are advised to rest on the day of surgery and
can resume light activity within 48 hours. Full activity is permitted
after six weeks.

PREPARATION

Two weeks prior to surgery, patients meet with Dr. Wages to review
measurements and complete pre-surgery paperwork. Final markings are
made the day before surgery. Smoking cessation is advised, as it can
interfere with the healing process.

PATIENT EXPERIENCE

Patients are supported by Dr. Wages and his team from the initial
consultation through post-operative care. A comprehensive examination
and bio-dimensional measurements are conducted during the consultation
to ensure a personalized surgical plan. This collaborative approach
aims to achieve each patient’s desired outcome.

RECOVERY

After surgery, patients should rest and follow detailed post-operative
instructions provided by Dr. Wages to promote a safe recovery. Initial
results will become visible within days, and continuous improvement is
expected, with full healing anticipated around six months
post-surgery.
