The procedure is also a great choice for women who want smaller and shapelier breasts. Our expert plastic surgeons can provide you with beautiful results from your breast reduction in Vancouver, BC.

Breast Reduction Candidates

Breast reduction surgery removes excess breast tissue and skin to achieve a breast size in proportion with your body and to alleviate the many symptoms associated with overly large breasts. These may include neck, back, and shoulder pain, bra strap grooving, breast crease irritation, and difficulty finding garments that fit comfortably.

”Dr. Seal did my breast reduction and I genuinely couldn’t be happier. Being very young (20) I was really nervous but he was so great at explaining everything and making me super comfortable from start to finish. I went from a size 32 N down to a 32 DD and am beyond overjoyed with the results. He really took the time to walk me through the entire procedure and make me comfortable with everything.

Breast Reduction Considerations

Breast reduction surgery removes excess breast tissue and skin from the breast and tightens the surrounding tissue to reshape and support the breast contour, improving the position and shape of the breasts. This allows the breasts to be smaller and more proportional to your body while making them lighter and firmer to help with their appearance and feel.

There are several techniques that can be used to perform a breast reduction successfully, and Dr. Seal would be happy to discuss these with you, and which ones may be possible depending on your breast size and overall goals

Other Options

One of Dr. Seal’s goals for your breast surgery is to make your incisions as unnoticeable as possible. The surgery cannot be done without creating some scars on the breast. These are strategically placed to help hide them as best as possible and continue to fade over the first year after your surgery. All of the important things you can do to help optimize your incision and results are reviewed during your follow-up visits.

Your Breast Reduction will be performed in Dr. Alex Seal’s office located in Vancouver, British Columbia.

What To Expect During Your Recovery

Breast Reduction Surgery is generally performed as an outpatient procedure at any one of the hospitals Dr. Seal operates at. You will be able to go home after the procedure to relax and recover.

In general, most women recover well over the first week, and we provide you with all the medication and supplies to help you through this process. When thinking about time off work, or away from social commitments, 2 weeks can be a safer window of downtime. Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise should be avoided for 4 weeks.

Dr. Seal will see you in the office over the recovery period to review all of the important information with you and ensure you are doing well.

Breast Reduction Results

The final results of your breast reduction surgery will appear gradually over the first few months as the breast tissue settles into the correct position and the swelling subsides. The incisions continue to fade over the first year, and all of the important things you can do to help optimize your results are reviewed during your follow-up visits.
