Our patient, aged in her early 50s, came to Quaba Plastic Surgery in Edinburgh after years of struggling with very large breasts. She experienced persistent neck and shoulder pain, poor posture, and difficulty finding clothing that fit comfortably.
She underwent a bilateral breast reduction, with 920g of tissue removed from her right breast and 1,240g from her left. Six months later, she reported feeling like a new person — her pain and tiredness had completely resolved, her posture had improved, and she was delighted with the overall shape and symmetry of her breasts.
Her story shows how breast reduction surgery can be life-changing, not only improving appearance but also transforming comfort, health, and quality of life.
