What Is Breast Reduction Surgery?
Breast reduction, or reduction mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to reduce breast size and reshape them. It may help individuals experiencing physical discomfort or other concerns related to larger breasts, including:
- Neck, back, and shoulder pain
- Skin irritation beneath the breasts
- Limitations in physical activities
- Challenges with clothing fit
At Pure Aesthetics, our experienced breast reduction surgeons in Sydney utilise techniques such as “short-scar” or “lollipop” methods. These approaches aim to reduce visible scarring where possible, while focusing on reshaping the breasts in a manner tailored to the individual.

What to Expect During the Procedure
Breast reduction surgery at Pure Aesthetics involves:

- Reshaping and lifting the breasts as part of the surgical approach to address individual concerns.
- Repositioning the nipples to a more proportionate position

Your recovery is an essential part of the journey, and we’ll support you every step of the way. Here’s what to expect:
- Wear a compression bra for 6–12 weeks to aid healing and reduce swelling.

- Avoid strenuous exercise for six weeks or as advised by your surgeon.
- Scars typically fade over 12 months with proper care and our scar management guidance.

A breast lift with implants is a tailored surgical approach for those looking to restore volume while improving breast position. This combination procedure can address concerns such as:
◽ Changes in breast shape due to ageing or weight fluctuations
◾ Volume loss after pregnancy or breastfeeding
◽ Skin laxity affecting breast positioning
If you`re considering breast enhancement, consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon is key to understanding if this procedure aligns with your needs.

While pregnancy after abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) is safe, it can impact one`s surgical results due to natural changes in the body.
During pregnancy, the abdominal muscles and skin stretch, which may lead to:
◾ A return of abdominal skin laxity
◽ Muscle separation (diastasis recti)
◾ Changes in the navel’s shape and position
Some individuals maintain their results post-pregnancy, while others may consider revision surgery. If you`re planning an abdominoplasty and have questions about how pregnancy might affect your results, professional guidance at Pure Aesthetics may help.
