What a Breast Reduction Treats
Relief That Is Physical and Visible
A breast reduction in South Jordan from Avant Plastics removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin, then reshapes what remains into a proportion your frame can comfortably support. Dr. Howland and Dr. Maglić treat macromastia as the medical condition it is, addressing the symptoms alongside appearance.
What It Treats:
-
Macromastia, or disproportionately large breasts
-
Chronic neck, upper back, and shoulder pain
-
Grooving where bra straps sit on the shoulders
-
Rashes and irritation beneath the breast fold
-
Difficulty exercising comfortably
-
Clothing that never fits both the chest and the waist
-
Numbness or tingling through the arms and hands

Frequently Asked Questions
You may be a strong candidate if breast weight causes physical symptoms, you are in good health, and you do not smoke. Your surgeon examines your proportions, documents your symptoms, and determines how much tissue removal will create relief.
Yes. Reduction and elevation happen together. Your surgeon removes tissue and skin, then repositions the remaining breast and the areola higher on the chest, so patients rarely need a separate breast lift.
Yes. The incision pattern depends on how much tissue is removed, and your surgeon maps it during your consultation. Scars fade considerably over the first year. We provide guidance on using scar gel and sunscreen to prevent aggressive scar formation.
Plan for about 1 week of downtime and 6 weeks of total recovery after breast reduction in South Jordan. Many patients notice relief from neck and shoulder pressure within days. Wait for your surgeon’s approval before participating in sports, exercise, bending, and heavy lifting.
A breast reduction in South Jordan takes about 2.5 hours under general anesthesia and is performed by a board-certified surgeon. Arrange for a responsible adult to drive you home and remain with you for the first 24 to 48 hours.
Ice constricts blood flow to healing tissue, which can compromise your result. Do not apply ice packs to the chest after a breast reduction. We provide a surgical bra instead, which you wear for the first week before switching to one of your own.
Not under normal circumstances. Significant weight gain, pregnancy, or hormonal changes can increase breast volume. Maintaining a stable weight preserves your result, and most patients experience relief for decades.
