Breast Reduction

Breast reduction removes excess breast tissue, fat and skin to bring overly large breasts into better proportion with the body and relieve the physical strain they can cause — back, neck and shoulder discomfort, skin irritation and limited activity. The surgeon also lifts and reshapes the breast and repositions the nipple, so the result is both smaller and firmer. Clinic for Luck prices the procedure from 70,000 Kč when under 500 g is removed per breast, and from 80,000 Kč for larger reductions, which involve more extensive tissue removal and reshaping.

Reduction mammoplasty is both an aesthetic and a functional operation. Disproportionately large, heavy breasts can cause chronic neck, shoulder and back pain, grooving from bra straps, recurrent skin irritation beneath the breast fold, and difficulty exercising or finding clothing that fits. By removing surplus glandular tissue, fat and skin, the procedure relieves these symptoms while producing a lighter, higher and better-shaped breast. The surgeon plans the operation around the volume to be removed and the desired final size. Excess tissue and skin are excised, the remaining breast is reshaped to a more compact and lifted form, and the nipple-areola complex is moved upward to its new natural position — typically through a vertical or anchor-pattern incision that also allows the breast to be tightened. Because larger reductions remove more than 500 g per breast and require more reshaping, they take longer and are priced accordingly. The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and usually involves a short hospital stay. Recovery includes continuous wear of a supportive compression bra to stabilise the reshaped breasts, with a graduated return to daily activities over the following weeks. As with any reduction, scars follow the incision pattern; they are placed to be hidden by a bra or swimwear and fade over the first year. Most patients report significant relief from the physical burden of large breasts alongside the improved shape. At consultation the surgeon assesses breast size, tissue composition and symptoms, agrees a target volume, and reviews the pre-operative testing required before scheduling.
