Breast reduction or mammaplasty is an operation that removes fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the female breasts to reduce and reshape them. Afterwards, the breasts should have a more youthful shape and the discomfort of living with heavy breasts should disappear. Many women who have large breasts find them very uncomfortable as they go about their daily lives. They often suffer from terrible back pain, pain in their shoulders and neck, and even wearing a bra can cause irritation as the straps dig into their skin. Large breasts may also prevent a woman performing normal daily activities such as exercising, and unusually large breasts can make a woman or a teenage girl feel extremely self-conscious. Breast reduction surgery is nearly always performed under a general anaesthetic. Some people may be up and about in a day or two, but you shouldn't plan on returning to (non-strenuous work) for around one to two weeks after surgery. Private costs for a breast reduction can range from approximately £3,500 - £5,500

Good afternoon I have had a breast reduction many years ago but my breast shave grown back to very large and would like them reduced again with an uplift too. I previously had it done on the nhs and my nipples are very uneven. I really want it all sorted out privately. Could you give me a price guide please and if you are able to do it quite soon as I am getting married and would like it done before then. Many thanks Jenny

Lorna Webb, London
"I recently had a breast reduction with Mr Richards from Aurora Clinics. From start to finish I had a fantastic experience. I’d seen other surgeons, but none filled me with the confidence he did. He really listened to my concerns and explained everything so clearly, that I knew I would come away with the fabulous breasts I had been dreaming of.
It’s not just Mr Richards though, it’s his whole team. Everyone at Aurora were fantastic. So genuine and caring, they really want you to be happy and satisfied. The level of information was excellent they gave me a pack and audio CD and it really helped me to understand my procedure better and what questions I should be asking. The aftercare was very important to me, but the nurses - especially Agi - were so lovely always at the end of the phone and willing to have you come in and see them (and Mr Richards) with any concerns. This made such a difference to me as it’s a bit scary once you get home.
I cannot recommend Aurora Clinics enough.

"I have just had the first of 2 operations to correct a size difference in my breasts. I cannot recommend Mr Grover enough. He is very understanding, caring and easy to talk to. He shares his honest opinion and prides himself on delivering a fantastic result. Role on the second operation."

The team ensured all my questions about breast reduction were answered and they were available 24/7.
