Breast Reduction (for Women) Before & After Case 2586

This patient chose breast reduction to address discomfort and improve her quality of life. She previously underwent breast reduction with Dr. David Stoker almost two decades ago and returned for a secondary procedure when symptoms recurred. Large breast size can often contribute to back, neck, and shoulder pain, as well as challenges with clothing and physical activity. The goal of this breast reduction (for women) in Los Angeles was to alleviate physical discomfort and help the patient feel more comfortable in her daily activities and wardrobe selections.

Her surgery involved the removal of approximately 650 grams from one breast and about 550 grams from the other. Special attention was paid to the placement and length of the incisions to support her preference for minimal visible scarring—particularly important as she often wears low-cut necklines. Although her breasts remain full at a double D cup, the volume has been reduced significantly, approximately 40% to 50% from her original size.

At just four days after surgery, the patient has already experienced improvements. She reports better posture and a marked decrease in physical discomfort. The early post-operative results also show maintenance of upper pole fullness, a feature supported by the internal bra technique Dr. Stoker employed during her procedure.

Dr. David Stoker, board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Stoker Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles, approaches each breast reduction (for women) with careful consideration of both form and function. His experience with advanced techniques and attention to incision placement help optimize outcomes for individuals seeking breast reduction (for women) in Los Angeles. Patients considering this procedure can expect an individualized plan focused on safety, aesthetics, and comfort.
