What Is a Breast Reduction?
Oversized breasts can cause social and functional issues for women. In addition, uneven and very large breasts can lead to self-image issues and embarrassment, as well as joint pain. Dr. Ross Bunch helps countless women regain their confidence and enjoy an active lifestyle through cosmetic breast reduction. This aesthetic surgery at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa reduces excess breast tissue and skin to recontour the breasts to a smaller and healthier size. Breast reduction surgery also reshapes the size of the areolas and nipples and moves them so they look natural with the new breast size. In most cases, a breast lift is performed to give a more taut and younger-looking appearance. For more information or to schedule a consultation, contact our Tuscaloosa, AL office.
How Is Breast Reduction Performed?
Breast reduction surgery is an outpatient procedure and is performed with the patient under general anesthesia. The duration of the surgery is dependent upon a few factors, including the incision type, the overall reduction technique, and the degree of reduction. Based on the complexity of the reduction, either an anchor or a straight line (vertical) incision will be incorporated. Breast fat and tissue will be removed, and the existing tissue and skin will be tightened. Repositioning the areola and nipple area will also be a factor. For most patients, liposuction is required for tissue and fat reduction to decrease the breast size. At the time of the initial consult, all of these factors are addressed with Dr. Bunch. The topic of scarring is also thoroughly examined and talked through as it is likely to occur. However, advanced techniques have led to a decrease in the visibility of scarring.
What Are the Benefits of Breast Reduction?
While some people might want to increase the size of their breasts, for others, unnaturally large breasts sometimes negatively influence their day-to-day lives and confidence. A breast reduction procedure at Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa provides a number of benefits to remake your style and boost your quality of life, including:

Breast Reduction Reviews
Dr. Bunch is the best surgeon ever. He has great bedside manners. He is very pleasant and he has love for his patients. He is a truly genuine professional doctor. He listened to what I told him that I wanted to look like. Dr. Bunch has changed my life for the better. I had ETT, extended breast reduction and lift and an arm lift. Dr. Bunch was honest about what I needed to have done to give me the best result. He show love and compassion for his family. I was so comfortable being under his care. I am going back to have round 2 to get a BBL. I will only spend my money with Dr Bunch. He has the best staff, very patient and kind. Oh and yes I have been snatched by the best. Dr. Bunch has given me my confidence and life back. Forever grateful. My stomach is so flat and my breast sits up. Before surgery I had not seen my private area in almost 25 years now she is sitting up high and proud. This is the best that I have ever looked. If i had to do it all over again, the answer is yes
Love Dr bunch! He is the best! I got breast augmentation and he took care of me like any others! Highly recommended l!
I haven’t had surgery yet I am scheduled in 4 weeks for a mini thigh lift, breast augmentation and possible a brachialplasty. But the whole process from the consult, consistent communication with the office and even another consult to confirm my procedures the process has been pretty awesome. The staff has been amazing in answering my questions. I am looking forward to these surgeries that I have wanted for a few years now.
Dr. Bunch and his staff are truly hands down the absolute best! From the consult, to the day of, and all the way through the healing process they are nothing short of amazing! I came in with a previous tummy tuck and breast augmentation that was done by another doctor, and that I had received only 11 months prior. I was completely unhappy and that doctor was not willing to fix any of my concerns. When I came in for my consult, without hesitation Dr. Bunch knew immediately the reasons I was so unhappy with it and he completely agreed with the way I felt! He took what had been done by someone else and completely redid me!!! And let me tell you, The results were night and day!!! Ben and all the staff have always answered any question I had, no matter the time of day! The entire staff takes great care of you before and after surgery!!! I will 100% recommend Dr. bunch and his staff to anyone! And I will 100% use them again for any further procedures I have!!! Thank you Dr. Bunch, Ben, and the entire staff!!!
I had my second surgery with Dr bunch. First being an Extended abdominal plasty then a breast augmentation. If you want you want high-quality results with a 5 star surgical suite please book with Dr bunch. I traveled from Oklahoma twice for my procedures with him. And I will do it again. His staff are amazing. Ben is very accommodating answering any questions you have before or after your surgery. the surgery coordinator Mallory is the sweetest and worked with getting my second surgery booked. He is truly the doll maker.
