Are large breasts causing you pain, discomfort, or body image issues? If so, you’re not alone — and breast reduction surgery could be the solution you’ve been searching for.
Here, Dr. Suraj Nair, one of Mumbai’s leading plastic surgeons, answers the most frequently asked questions about breast reduction surgery at his clinic in Andheri.
❓ What is breast reduction surgery?
Breast reduction surgery, also called reduction mammoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess fat, breast tissue, and skin to reduce the size and weight of large breasts. It helps relieve physical discomfort while achieving a more proportionate and lifted breast shape.
❓ Who is an ideal candidate?
You may be a good candidate if you:
Experience chronic neck, back, or shoulder pain
Have bra strap grooves or skin rashes under your breasts
Struggle to find clothes that fit well
Feel self-conscious about breast size
Are in overall good health and a non-smoker
❓ Is breast reduction only cosmetic?
No. While the surgery improves aesthetics, it’s often medically necessary to relieve pain, improve posture, and support mental well-being. Many patients report life-changing results after the procedure.
❓ How much does breast reduction surgery cost in Andheri, Mumbai?
At Dr. Suraj Nair’s clinic in Andheri, breast reduction typically costs between ₹1,50,000 to ₹3,50,000, depending on the technique, anesthesia, and complexity of the case.
For an accurate quote, you can book a consultation.
❓ What is the recovery time?
Most patients:
Return to desk jobs within 7–10 days
Resume light activities after 2 weeks
See swelling reduce significantly by 6 weeks
Experience full healing in 3–4 months
Dr. Nair provides a detailed recovery plan and personalized follow-ups to support healing.
❓ Will I have scars?
Yes, but they fade significantly over time. Dr. Suraj Nair uses refined surgical techniques and strategic incisions to minimize scarring. Scars are typically hidden along the natural breast crease or around the areola.
❓ Can I breastfeed after breast reduction?
It depends on the technique used. Some women are able to breastfeed, while others may experience reduced lactation. If future breastfeeding is important to you, discuss it during your consultation with Dr. Nair.
❓ Is the surgery painful?
You may feel soreness and tightness for a few days, but discomfort is manageable with prescribed medication. Most patients say the relief from neck and shoulder pain far outweighs the short-term discomfort.
❓ Will my insurance cover breast reduction?
Some insurance providers may cover breast reduction if it’s medically necessary and documented properly. Dr. Nair’s clinic can help you with medical reports and supporting documents, but it’s best to check with your insurer in advance.
