Description

This patient had experienced symptomatic macromastia for over 35 years, reporting chronic upper back, neck, and shoulder pain, as well as difficulty finding supportive garments and discomfort during physical activity. Despite her long-standing symptoms, a demanding professional and personal life had delayed surgical intervention.

After finally prioritizing her own well-being, she underwent a bilateral breast reduction to restore proportional balance and alleviate musculoskeletal strain. The procedure successfully reduced breast weight and ptosis while maintaining natural contour and symmetry.

At her postoperative follow-up, the patient reported complete resolution of back pain and a substantial improvement in daily comfort and mobility. She expressed that she wished she had undergone the procedure much earlier, given the profound improvement in her quality of life and confidence.
