Before and after bilateral breast reduction and liposuction of the axillary rolls in a 53-year-old woman. Her breasts were heavy, pendulous and asymmetric, causing her to feel “top-heavy” and matronly. She wanted to be able to exercise more easily and feel lighter on top.
A breast reduction removed over a pound and a half of tissue from each breast, with slightly more volume removed from her right larger breast. Her breasts were lifted, rearranged and reshaped through the “auto-augmentation” technique. Liposuction removed excess 800 cc of fat from her armpits and bra rolls.
Follow up photos are shown 2 years after surgery. She is pleased with her results, and that she still feels “like herself, just lighter.”
