Can breasts grow after reduction surgery?

One of the questions that my patients often ask me before undergoing breast reduction surgery is whether, once the surgery has been performed, there is a possibility that their breasts will increase in size or sag again. The answer is if, in general, the result of the surgery is maintained, but several factors must be considered to explain what can happen.

The durability of the results of a breast reduction

La breast reduction surgery is designed to be a long-lasting solution to problems associated with large breasts, such as back pain, difficulties exercising, dressing or even self-esteem issues. During this procedure, a significant part of the glandular tissue and fat is removed from the breast, thus achieving a notable reduction in breast volume and weight and improving breast shape and position

Ffactors that may influence the change in postoperative size

Although tissue reduction It is important and it is very rare for breasts to grow back, there are certain factors that can influence breast size after surgery:

If you're considering a pregnancy after surgery, it's important to discuss it with your surgeon, as changes associated with pregnancy and breastfeeding may alter the results of the surgery.

In short, although breast reduction surgery offers permanent results in terms of removing breast tissue, factors such as weight gain, hormonal changes, and changes in body composition can influence breast size after the operation. However, these changes are usually not significant enough to completely reverse the effects of the surgery.

If you're considering a breast reduction, I'll wait for you in my assessment consultation.
