Many women seek breast reduction surgery because of oversized breasts, a condition that is medically known as breast hypertrophy, which can lead to neck and back pain, irritation to the shoulder area from the bra, inflammation of the breast fold or breast pain from physical activities and sport. Oversized breasts can also make it difficult to find sufficiently supporting bras or clothing that fits properly. The weight of the breast can lead to a loss of skin elasticity, leading to stretch marks and sagging breasts and nipples, which may be aesthetically difficult for affected women. Breast reduction surgery can help achieve symmetry when breasts are not equal in size. When the medical complaints outweigh the purely aesthetic considerations your health insurance may cover the costs for the surgery. The procedure involves the removal of glandular tissues and skin, the reduction of the areola, and the repositioning of the nipple. The reshaping of the breast will also lead to a desired volume increase in the upper breast region
