Breast Reduction in Virginia Beach

Ready to take control of your body and life? Dr. G's breast reduction in Virginia Beach can do just that. This extraordinary procedure can dramatically improve physical and emotional comfort for patients who have disproportionally large breasts.

Finally, Feel Like Yourself

While countless women love their large breasts, for others, it can be a major life hindrance. Disproportionally large breasts often lead to discomfort, pain, embarrassment, and prevention from an active lifestyle. A breast reduction in Virginia Beach decreases the size of the breasts, allowing patients to finally feel like themselves.

How a Breast
Reduction Works

Dr. G can achieve smaller breasts for patients by removing skin, fat, and glandular tissue. During the procedure, he will also re-shape the breasts to improve their appearance and/or re-position the nipples and areolas to get the most natural appearance possible. Most patients go down 1-2 sizes with a breast reduction, but it may be possible to go down even more. This can be determined during your breast reduction consultation in Virginia Beach with Dr. G.

I have my wish boobs! They are gorgeous! Just as important as Dr. G’s talent and expertise, he and his entire staff have treated me like family every step of the way, and have spent so much time with me making sure I was staying healthy and happy. I recommend Dr. G without reservation to anyone looking for a truly talented doctor who really cares about his patients.

Dr. G typically performs a breast reduction in Virginia Beach with the patient under general anesthesia. Before the procedure, your skin will be cleansed and marked to help guide Dr. G. He will carefully and precisely create an incision that goes all the way around the areola and continues underneath the breast. Using this incision, he will take excess skin from each side of the breasts. The tissue that is not removed will be lifted and contoured to achieve a firmer, smaller appearance for the breasts. Dr. G may also re-position the nipple and areola (this will be discussed during your consultation). Once the procedure is complete, the incisions will be closed.

Best Breast Reduction Recovery Tips

It’s important that your home is ready for you when you return from surgery. This means having everything prepared that you will need. We will provide you not only with a list of items you’ll need for recovery, but also with a vetted Amazon store where you can access them.

We recommend having plenty of loose, comfy, button-up blouses to wear during recovery. It will be very difficult to lift up your arms for a few days after surgery, so you will need a helper during that time.

After your procedure, you’ll be fitted with a surgical bra for healing and support. You’ll need to wear this for about one week, and then you can begin wearing a soft bra without an underwire. Do not wear any kind of a wire bra until Dr. G advises you that it’s okay to.

What to Expect During Your
Breast Reduction Recovery

Most patients resume sedentary type work approximately one week after surgery
Expect bruising, tightness, and stiffness
You will need to keep drains dry if they are placed
Avoid lifting anything over 1-2 pounds for two weeks
Avoid exercise until Dr. G advises you to continue
Avoid putting any kind of pressure on your incisions
Expect to sleep upright for 1-2 weeks
