Double board-certified plastic surgeon David Dellinger, DO, FACOS performs reduction mammaplasty to relieve back/neck/shoulder discomfort, reduce rashes and grooves, and create a balanced, comfortable shape. A lift is included for a perkier contour.
Costs vary by technique and whether additional procedures are included. National figures often cite ~$5,700 for the surgical fee (excludes anesthesia/facility). You’ll receive a personalized quote and financing options at your consultation.
Plan on several days of rest, with light activities the first week. Most return to desk work in ~1–2 weeks; activity increases gradually as cleared by Dr. Dellinger.
Incisions are placed strategically around the areola and on the lower breast; most patients feel the tradeoff is worth the comfort and shape improvement. Scars typically fade with time and proper care.
Sometimes—if breasts are primarily fatty and skin is not significantly lax. We’ll evaluate this during your consult and advise the safest, most effective approach.
