When Being Well-Endowed Isn’t a Good Thing

“You can never have too much of the good thing.”

You’ve probably heard of this expression at one point or you might have said it yourself. While there may be a hint of truth to such statement, a certain subset of women who have visited our Cleveland plastic surgery practice will most likely disagree. When it comes to breast size, it looks like one can actually have too much of what the majority of the population considers a good thing.

Why a Breast Reduction May Be Necessary

Overly large breasts can have have physical and emotional consequences on a woman. By and large, the most common complaints we hear from women who seek breast reduction surgery here at our practice include the following:

  • chronic back and neck pain
  • skin irritation and shoulder chafing from bra straps
  • soreness or inflammation underneath the breast folds
  • limitations on mobility, exercise and other physical activities
  • difficulties in finding well-fitting undergarments and clothes
  • emotional discomfort or reduced self-esteem brought about my unwanted attention

It is quite obvious that women with extremely large breasts do not just carry the physical weight of their breasts but the excess emotional weight associated with it as well.

Are You An Ideal Candidate?

Aside from experiencing majority of the aforementioned conditions, the ideal candidate for a breast reduction surgery should be within their ideal body weight, should have realistic expectations of the procedure, and should be generally healthy. Teens who are thinking of getting breast reduction should be assessed whether or not their breasts has reached maturity.
