A shorter incision pattern around the areola and down to the breast crease, for moderate reductions.
Allows for the most extensive reshaping, typically recommended for larger reductions.
Addresses volume and sagging together in a single procedure (reduction mammoplasty with mastopexy).
Often performed alongside reduction to bring proportions and nipple position in line with the new breast size.
For patients with noticeably uneven breast size, using a tailored reduction plan for each side.

Results and recovery vary between individuals. This isn't a guarantee — it's what to genuinely plan for.
Most patients experience swelling and soreness for a couple of weeks, and return to desk-based work within 7-10 days. Strenuous activity and exercise are typically avoided for 4-6 weeks. Scars fade significantly over 12-18 months and are usually placed to be hidden under bras and swimwear.
As with any surgical procedure: swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, changes in nipple sensation, infection risk, and permanent (though fading) scarring. Anesthesia carries its own risks, which your surgeon will review based on your health history. Breastfeeding ability may be affected — this is discussed in detail during consultation.

Breast reduction surgery, medically known as reduction mammoplasty, removes excess breast fat, tissue and skin to reduce breast size and weight. It is often performed for relief from chronic back, neck and shoulder pain caused by overly large breasts, as well as for improved body proportion.
Costs in Visakhapatnam typically range from around ₹90,000 for liposuction-assisted reduction up to ₹1,80,000 and above for a combined reduction with breast lift, depending on the technique and extent of tissue removal. A full quote is provided after consultation.
Breast reduction is generally suitable for adults whose breast size causes physical discomfort — such as back, neck or shoulder pain, posture issues, or skin irritation — or who want a breast size more proportionate to their body. It's best to wait until breast growth has stopped. Your surgeon will assess your suitability during consultation.
Liposuction-assisted reduction removes fat with minimal scarring, suited to smaller reductions. The vertical (lollipop) technique uses a shorter incision around the areola and down to the crease. The traditional (anchor or inverted-T) technique allows for the most extensive reshaping in larger reductions. Your surgeon will recommend the right technique based on your anatomy and goals.
The procedure is performed under anaesthesia, so there is no pain during surgery. Most patients experience swelling and soreness for a couple of weeks, and return to desk-based work within 7-10 days. Full recovery and settling of results typically takes several weeks, as guided by your surgeon.
Yes — 0% interest EMI options are available with easy documentation, so you can spread the cost over manageable monthly payments.
Many patients with chronic back, neck or shoulder pain from breast weight find relief after reduction, but results vary and not every pain has this cause. Dr. C. Vijay Kumar examines you first and tells you whether reduction is likely to help.
