Before moving forward, let’s explore what breast reduction and liposuction procedures are.

What is Liposuction Procedure?

Liposuction is another surgical procedure that helps remove the extra fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction removes excess fat from the body using a hollow stainless steel tube called a cannula inserted through small incisions in the skin. The cannula is then used to suction out the unwanted fat. Liposuction is often used to improve the body’s shape by removing unwanted fat from the thighs, hips, stomach, and buttocks.

Liposuction can reshape and contour the body, creating a more proportionate and pleasing shape. Many people who have liposuction say it improves their self-esteem and confidence by enhancing their physical appearance.

What is Breast Reduction?

Breast reduction, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that involves removing excess fat, tissue, and skin from the breasts to make them smaller and more proportional to the rest of the body. This procedure is typically done on women with large, heavy, or sagging breasts that cause physical discomfort or pain, such as back and shoulder pain, skin irritation and difficulty exercising.

Combining Breast Reduction and Liposuction

Combining breast reduction and liposuction can provide a more comprehensive and cohesive result for some patients and potentially reduce recovery time compared to having two separate procedures.

If a patient is having a breast reduction procedure and also wants liposuction on another area of their body, it may be possible to combine the two procedures into one operation. However, this would depend on the patient’s overall health and the extent of their surgery.

Recovery time for these two procedures also could be different, and you can generally expect to experience some pain and swelling for the first several days to a week. It may take several weeks for the swelling to subside fully.

Therefore, you must discuss your expectation with your surgeon and follow post-operative instructions.
