Before and after bilateral breast reduction and lift in a 54-year-old woman. Her breasts had grown with weight gain during the start of menopause, creating sore shoulder grooves from downward pulling of her breasts in her bra, neck, shoulder and back pain, and difficulty exercising and finding tops that fit without pulling in the central cleavage area.
A breast reduction reduced the size of her breasts and reshaped her remaining breast tissue to be more round and perky. Liposuction removed over a full liter of fat from each of her bra rolls and armpits! The final before and after image shows the fat removed by liposuction of the axillary rolls.
Long-term follow up photos are shown 3 years after surgery. She has gained a little weight since surgery with further hormonal changes, but her smaller and lighter breasts have remained shapely and proportional to her body.
