Breast reduction

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Breast reduction is a plastic surgery to make human breasts smaller. The doctor takes out fat, skin, and glands. It is done on women most of the time, but men can also get it. In 2005, more than 113,000 women had breast reductions.[1][2]

The price for breast reduction surgery can vary significantly, ranging from $2,000 to $20,000.[3]

Aside from aesthetic reasons, many women choose to undergo breast reduction surgery to help reduce back strain, skin irritation, or breathing problems caused by large breasts.
