If your breasts are oversized for your body or cause shoulder, back, or neck pain, consider breast reduction surgery. When performed by board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Steele, this safe breast surgery procedure reduces your breasts to a more manageable size, relieving discomfort and making you less self-conscious. We typically perform breast reductions in Parker County alongside a breast lift to optimize their full appearance.

Excessively large breasts can cause physical distress, resulting in pain and affecting your ability to perform everyday activities. Along with physical ailments and a difficulty in finding clothes that fit, oversized breasts may also lead to emotional or mental health problems.
Breast reduction, or mammoplasty, is performed at our accredited outpatient surgery center for both medical and aesthetic reasons. The procedure removes excess fat accumulation, skin, and tissue from the breast, reducing your breast size while maintaining the functionality and sensitivity of your breasts. Breast reduction in Parker County can also boost your self-confidence and self-esteem.
Men can develop excess fat and glandular tissue on their chest, resulting in prominent breasts. This condition is known as Gynecomastia. Several factors, including hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, weight gain, anabolic steroid use, and other influences, may cause this. Gynecomastia can profoundly impact your self-esteem and has sometimes led to depression or emotional distress.
Dr. Steele can correct gynecomastia through breast reduction surgery, leaving you with a more normal-looking male chest. We will remove breast tissue and fat to produce a more masculine chest. In some cases, typically after massive weight loss, the procedure may require skin excision and repositioning of the nipple/areolar complex. The result is a slimmer, more robust chest, which will boost your self-confidence and self-esteem.
After your surgery, dressings or bandages will cover your incisions, and we will give you a compression garment to control swelling and support your breasts during recovery. We may also place a small, thin tube to temporarily drain excess fluid under the skin. You will receive specific instructions for recovery, including how to care for your incisions and when to take your medications.
Your results will be long-lasting, and your new breast size should free you from pain and physical limitations. You may find that you even have a boost in your self-image and confidence. However, it is important to note that your breasts can change over time due to aging, weight fluctuations, and hormonal factors. While they are not likely to get as large as they once were, they still might need a revision at some point down the road.
Large breasts can make it difficult to lead an active lifestyle. If you experience shoulder indentations from your bra straps and skin irritation beneath your breast crease, it may be a sign that your breasts are causing problems. If you feel that your breasts are too large or that they limit your physical activity, you might be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery. The ideal candidates are in good health and are a non-smoker.
You do not have to go through life experiencing the pain and embarrassment of breasts that are too big for your body. Breast reduction in Parker County will provide you with years of improved quality of life. We offer an individualized treatment plan based on your needs.
