Breast Reduction

Breast reduction removes excess volume and reshapes the breast, relieving physical strain while creating a lighter, more proportionate contour.

Refine Your Natural Proportions

Breast reduction is both a functional and an aesthetic procedure. Excess weight, volume, and skin can cause real physical discomfort and affect posture and movement, while also creating a shape that feels out of proportion with the rest of the body. The goal is a size and shape that fits your frame and your life, individually planned rather than applied as a fixed reduction amount.

Common Concerns

Common concerns include:

Neck, shoulder, or back discomfort
Bra-strap grooving

Limitations with physical activity
Disproportion between chest and body frame

Difficulty finding clothing that fits well

What The Procedure Does

Breast reduction removes excess volume and reshapes the breast to fit your frame.

The treatment can:

  • Decreases overall breast size and weight
  • Improves contour and symmetry
  • Lifts the breast to a more natural position
  • Reduces physical strain and discomfort

  • First few days Swelling, soreness, and tightness are expected. Movement is limited to allow proper healing.

Who This Is For

If back, neck, or shoulder discomfort, bra-strap grooving, or difficulty finding clothing that fits are a regular part of your life because of breast size, reduction is worth discussing regardless of age or whether you’ve had children.

"I had an absolutely exceptional experience with Dr. Burko and his team at SY aesthetic's. From my first consultation to my final follow-up, I felt completely cared for, informed, and confident in my decision.

The staff was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive. Dr. Burko took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, explained the procedure in detail, and made sure all of my questions were answered. Their knowledge, experience, and honest recommendations gave me total peace of mind.

I can’t recommend Dr. Burko enough. If you’re looking for a skilled and trustworthy plastic surgeon, this is the place to go. Thank you again to the entire team—you changed my life!"
