Some Benefits of Breast Reduction Surgery

While many think of breast surgery in the context of a Chicago breast augmentation, women all over the world have surgery to reduce the size of their breasts. Whether for medical or cosmetic reasons, a breast reduction offers many benefits.

Lessens Pain

When a woman has very large breasts, pain comes in different forms. Your shoulders can hurt from thick bra straps digging into your skin and your back suffers from chronic pain. In addition, larger breasts can sometimes cause shortness of breath. Women often do not even realize how much pain and tension was stemming from their breasts until the procedure is completed.

With this pain, there is also skin irritation. This can be from your bra or the friction your breasts cause. Rashes and irritation are common underneath your breasts, and sometimes even in between.
