When the breasts are heavy, pendulous, and oversized, it can cause a range of problems including shoulder, neck, and back pain. Other signs that the breasts may be disproportionately too large are bra strap related grooving in the shoulders, chafing and irritation in the breast crease, migraines, breast pain, and an inability to effectively exercise due to the burdensome nature of the breasts. Through outpatient breast reduction surgery, Dr. Pratt will streamline your figure by restoring proportion, balance, and shape, giving you not only a remarkable cosmetic improvement, but a functional transformation as well.

What is a breast reduction?

During your Charlotte NC breast reduction surgery, Dr. Pratt will remove excess fat, skin, and glandular tissue to create a more youthful, shape and more balanced breast size that brings harmony to the rest of your figure. The removal of this additional weight will typically provide symptomatic relief to the once chronically strained neck, back, and shoulders. The surgery can help improve sagging breasts, and nipple repositioning can be performed in conjunction to provide a youthful, perky aesthetic you will be excited to show off at the beach, in photos, and in the bedroom.

Breast Reduction in Charlotte

What are the benefits of the procedure?

  • Increased physical comfort
  • Increased range of motion and mobility
  • Increased confidence in one’s looks
  • More energy and stamina
  • Increased wardrobe options
  • Reduction in chaffing and irritation
  • A more proportionate, balanced silhouette
  • Reduction in cat-calling and taunting

Dr. Pratt was phenomenal in providing options when I came in to discuss revising a breast reduction I had 15 years earlier by a different surgeon.  Over that time period, I felt my DDD had become saggy and unattractive. I was pretty sure I did not want implants (since I already had enough size to share) but I wanted to somehow "lift the girls" without losing too much curve. I'm thrilled to report his talented skills allowed me to keep my curves but regain attractive shape. Thank you Dr. Pratt and staff!
