Before & After
Case Details
Our patient, 39, chose to undergo a breast lift and reduction due to ongoing discomfort from large, heavy breasts. She experienced persistent neck and shoulder pain, as well as bra strap grooving that affected her daily activities. These concerns made it difficult for her to find comfortable clothing, and she wished for greater freedom in her lifestyle, including the ability to go strapless and braless.
Dr. Michael Carlisle, MD performed a breast reduction and lift, removing one pound of breast tissue from each side. The photos above show her progress three months post-surgery; over time, the surgical scars will continue to fade. Following her procedure, the patient notes significant physical relief and an overall improvement in comfort.
