good
breast reduction candidate
rarely bats an eyelash when the main side effects of surgery are
reviewed, (permanent scarring, potential sensation loss and possible
disturbance to breast feeding ability). She is so beleaguered and
uncomfortable by the time she seeks the advice of the plastic surgeon
that these seem a small price to pay for liberation from her symptoms.
Together with the relief of their symptoms, the majority of patients gain a new level of satisfaction with their breast aesthetics. Studies even show that the majority of patients with some loss of nipple sensation following surgery still "enjoy" their breasts more and are more comfortable in both routine and intimate situations.
