A quick look at what to expect — from procedure time to visible results.
Breast Reduction Surgery, medically known as Reduction Mammoplasty, is a cosmetic and functional surgical procedure that reduces the size, weight, and volume of overly large breasts. The surgery removes excess breast tissue, fat, and stretched skin while repositioning the nipples and areolas to create a smaller, lighter, and more proportionate breast shape.
Women with excessively large breasts often experience chronic neck pain, shoulder grooving, back pain, skin irritation, posture problems, and difficulty participating in physical activities. Breast reduction surgery not only enhances appearance but also significantly improves comfort, mobility, and overall wellbeing.
The procedure is customized according to the patient’s anatomy, desired breast size, and aesthetic goals to achieve balanced, natural-looking results.
Breast reduction surgery can be performed using different surgical techniques depending on breast size, shape, the amount of excess skin and tissue, and the desired outcome. Dr YV Rao selects the appropriate technique based on your individual anatomy and treatment goals.
Vertical Scar Breast Reduction
Also known as a lollipop breast reduction, this technique involves incisions around the areola and vertically down toward the breast crease. It may be suitable for patients requiring moderate breast reduction and reshaping.
Inverted-T Breast Reduction
The inverted-T, or anchor, technique uses an incision around the areola, vertically down the breast, and along the breast crease. It can be considered when a larger amount of breast tissue and excess skin needs to be removed.
Liposuction Breast Reduction
Breast reduction using liposuction removes excess fatty tissue through small incisions. It may be suitable for selected patients whose breast size is primarily influenced by fatty tissue and who have good skin elasticity.
Breast Reduction with Lift
Breast reduction is often combined with a breast lift to remove excess tissue and skin while reshaping and repositioning the breasts. This can help address both breast size and sagging.
Choosing an experienced breast reduction surgeon in Hyderabad is an important part of planning breast reduction surgery. The procedure requires careful assessment of breast size, tissue characteristics, skin quality, body proportions, physical symptoms, and individual treatment goals. At Dr. Y. V. Rao Clinics, each procedure is planned according to the patient's anatomy and concerns, with attention to breast reshaping, appropriate surgical technique, recovery, potential risks, and patient expectations. The goal is to achieve a breast size and shape that is appropriate for the individual's anatomy and treatment goals.
Choosing Breast Reduction Surgery in Hyderabad can improve both physical comfort and overall body proportions. The procedure offers several important benefits:
Relieves physical discomfort: Reduces back, neck, and shoulder pain caused by excessively large or heavy breasts.
Improves body proportion: Creates a more balanced and proportionate breast size that complements your overall body shape.
Enhances mobility and activity: Makes exercise, sports, and daily activities more comfortable by reducing the weight of excess breast tissue.

Genuine feedback from our patients across Hyderabad.
I was nervous about having this operation but Dr Yv Rao made me feel extremely relaxed and I felt confident knowing I was in his safe hands. Cannot recommend him and the team enough. If you are thinking about having this or similar, go to see My breast, you won't regret it.
From the start my experience with MyBreast was fantastic -Dr Yv Rao took time to explain the procedure in full. I felt comfortable asking any questions and he was reassuring when I expressed any concerns I had previously held about the operation. I was nervous before my first appointment but I felt so at ease during the appointment and never once felt I was making the wrong decision.
The surgeon was communicative, caring, and competent. I would not hesitate to have anything done by this company although, of course, one must really have a rapport with the specific surgeon.
