Customized procedure and results
BREAST REDUCTION CUSTOMIZED FOR YOUR NEEDS
Dr. Wiser will create a customized procedure plan that meets your needs. He also takes the time to get to know you and understand your goals and concerns while explaining each step of the procedure, ensuring you have everything you need to make an informed decision.
Breast reduction surgery decreases the size of your breasts by removing extra skin, tissue and fat. This is accomplished using strategically-placed incisions that allow Dr. Wiser to access the surgical site with minimal scarring.
The volume of your breasts will be reduced with care and precision to ensure symmetrical, pleasing results, but the postoperative shape of your breasts will be determined by your natural contours. Dr. Wiser uses advanced 3D technology to help you visualize your results before your procedure, giving you clear insight so you can feel confident about achieving your goals.

BREAST REDUCTION/LIFT
Where do you place the scars in breast reduction/ lift?
A breast reduction / lift can be done with either a short scar (lollipop) or inverted T scar (anchor). The anchor scar allows better contour of the breast but involves more scar length, compared to the lollipop scar.
What complications can occur after breast reduction / lift?
The most common complications to occur after breast reduction / lift are mild. These include local infection, wound disruption that is treated locally, and in people with genetic tendency we sometimes see higher incidence of hypertrophic scars (thickened and/or hyperpigmented).
Do you need to remove stitches after surgery?
No. All stitches used in breast augmentation are internal and dissolvable.
How fast can I get back to normal after surgery?
Pretty fast! You’ll be given a sports bra to wear at all times (excluding showers) for 4 weeks. For the first 2 weeks you should avoid rigorous exercise, sexual intercourse and sleeping on your tummy. Afterwards you are free of any limitations.
Do it hurt and how can I manage the pain?
A personalized pain management plan may include different types of medications that act together synergistically. Dr Wiser performs a regional nerve block that numbs the surgical area using a long-acting anesthetic called Exparel® that is active up to 72 hours. This way most of Dr Wiser patients are feeling minimal pain in the first 3 days after surgery, which is usually when the pain is the most severe.
Do I need a breast reduction or just a breast lift?
In a breast reduction, I reduce the volume of the breast and lift the position of the nipple areolar complex. In a breast lift I only do the latter. You are a candidate for breast reduction if you suffer from heaviness of the breast, skin irritation in the breast folds, and shoulder/back or neck pain, or if you feel that the volume of the breast is too big inside the bra. If you are satisfied with the breast volume while in the bra but the breast is droopy, you are probably a candidate for the breast lift.
