Breast Reduction

Breast Reduction
Steven Robinson, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Many women have excessively large breasts, a condition called macromastia. These women suffer from chronic back and neck pain. They also experience shoulder pain and grooves from the bra strap. Sometimes symptoms are so bad that there is numbness in their arms. Rashes frequently occur under their breasts, especially in the Summer. It is difficult or impossible to find properly fitting bras and clothes. The breast reduction procedure ( reduction mammoplasty ) is designed for these women.

Dr. Steven Robinson is a board certified Plastic Surgeon in Columbus Ohio. For over fifteen years he has performed hundreds of breast reductions on women from all over the Midwest. Dr. Robinson uses techniques that leave the shortest scars possible while still accomplishing a reduction and breast lift that is long lasting. The procedure is performed at an accredited outpatient surgery center in Columbus, Ohio, with a board certified anesthesiologist present to ensure your comfort. You go home the same day.

Insurance covers this procedure provided that you meet certain requirements. At your consultation with Dr. Robinson, he will discuss these with you and send a letter to your insurance company requesting coverage. Once approval has been received, we will schedule the breast reduction at your convenience. Most people can go back to work in 2 to 4 weeks, after their breast reduction recovery.
