Breast reduction surgery relieves the physical discomfort of overly large breasts, restoring both a proportionate figure and freedom of movement.
A Brighter, Happier Life With Breast Reduction Surgery
Women who experience the physical and emotional pain of living with extremely large breasts can get relief with breast reduction surgery, performed by the hands of Dr. Merriman, in the comfort of her surgery center or at South Georgia Medical Center, both located in Valdosta, Georgia. Breast reduction surgery can relieve chronic issues associated with unusually large breasts, such as back, neck, and shoulder pain, as well as give you a new shape and firmness to your breasts and a newfound sense of freedom. Women come to Dr. Merriman for breast reduction surgery for the following reasons:
- Back, shoulder, and neck pain. The weight of overly large breasts can take its toll on the body, resulting in chronic pain in the back, neck, or shoulders.
- Discomfort during physical activity. The inability to run, jog, or play sports – or even swim without embarrassment can prevent women with unusually large breasts from participating in activities they love.
- Breasts that appear to be out of proportion with the rest of the body, with an unbalanced appearance. If you feel your body is not proportional, this can negatively impact your feelings about your body image.
- Skin irritation. Many women who have extremely large breasts can develop rashes or skin irritations beneath hanging breast tissue.
- Difficulty breathing. The extreme weight of large breasts can compress the rib cage, causing difficulty breathing during physical activity such as walking or jogging. Rib cage compression can also cause numbness in the chest.
- Emotional stress. It can often be difficult for women with overly large breasts to find clothes that fit their bodies, turning shopping into a stressful event rather than a fun and pleasant activity. This can undermine your self-confidence and cause emotional stress.
