Reduce breast size - When is breast reduction the right choice for you?

This article has been reviewed and approved by Chief Medical Officer and Aesthetic Surgeon Dr. Ali Bagher on July 13, 2025.

Do you have large breasts that feel more like a burden than something you are happy about? You are far from alone. Many women come to us at Estetikcentrum with the same question - Is it really normal to have back pain every day just because my bust is so heavy?

A breast reduction can be a really good option if you feel that your bust is limiting you in everyday life, both physically and mentally. It's not just about looks, it's also about getting a body that works better for you.

When is it time to consider a breast reduction?

There are several occasions when it may be appropriate to consider a breast reduction. For example, you may be experiencing back and shoulder pain or avoiding certain types of exercise.

• You get neck, shoulder or back pain, especially after a long day.
  
• Your bra straps cut in and leave red marks that hurt.
  
• You get a rash or skin irritation under your breasts, especially on hot days.
  
• You avoid certain types of exercise or clothing because your breasts are in the way.
  
• You feel uncomfortable with how your body looks in the mirror.
  

If you answered yes to any of these questions, a breast reduction can be a step towards feeling better and we at Estetikcentrum have both the knowledge and expertise to help you along the way.

How it works

The breast reduction procedure is clearly complicated. In short, it involves removing excess breast tissue, fat and skin to make the breasts smaller and more in proportion to your body. At the same time, the nipple is moved upwards to give the bust a natural lift. The result is lighter breasts, better posture and often a whole new sense of freedom. It is not uncommon to combine breast reduction with a breast lift or liposuction from other parts of the body. During your consultation, we will talk more about the different options and see what is right for you.

What does a breast reduction cost?

We understand that price is a very important and determining factor when it comes to cosmetic surgery. Wanting to know how much breast reduction will cost is one of the most common questions we answer. When it comes to breast reduction and price, it depends, among other things, on the extent of the procedure and whether you want to combine it with something else. With us, you will always receive a clear price proposal in connection with the consultation, with no hidden fees!
