Women with very large, pendulous breasts may experience a variety of medical problems caused by the excessive weight including back and neck pain, skin irritation, skeletal deformities and breathing problems. Bra straps, also, may leave indentations in a woman’s shoulders. Additionally, unusually large breasts can make a woman, or teenage girl, feel extremely self-conscious.

 
Breast reduction, technically known as reduction mammoplasty, is designed for such women. The procedure removes fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breasts, making them smaller, lighter, and firmer. It can also reduce the size of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple. The goal is to give the woman smaller, better-shaped breasts in proportion with the rest of her body.

If you're considering breast reduction, Dr. Rabson can provide you specific information on how he would proceed in your particular situation.
