Our Approach at BIANCA CLINIC

Personalized Breast Reshaping Designed Around Your Anatomy and Goals
While larger breasts are often considered desirable, many women find that excessive breast volume creates real, everyday challenges — neck and shoulder discomfort, difficulty exercising, and frustration when trying to find clothes that fit. For some, breast size can quietly affect confidence and quality of life.
REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY at BIANCA CLINIC is performed by experienced aesthetic surgeons with extensive backgrounds in breast surgery. Every treatment plan is developed individually, taking into account breast size, body proportions, lifestyle, future pregnancy considerations, and your aesthetic goals. The aim is not simply to reduce volume — it's to create balanced, natural-looking results that complement your overall physique.
We regularly welcome international patients at our Ginza and Omotesando locations in central Tokyo. English support is available. We encourage you to book a consultation to discuss your goals and find out whether REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY is right for you.

Время простоя

REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY is typically performed under intravenous anesthesia and takes approximately 90 minutes.
Bruising may occur and generally improves within around 10 days.
Swelling is expected to settle gradually over one to two weeks, though recovery varies by individual.
Discomfort may persist for approximately one week.
A supportive breast band is typically worn for one week following surgery, and sutures are generally removed after seven days.
Showering is usually permitted from the third postoperative day.
Most patients are able to resume daily activities gradually as recovery progresses — strenuous exercise and activities that place stress on the chest should be avoided until cleared by your physician, usually one month.
Follow-up visits are generally scheduled at approximately one month, three months, and six months after treatment.

Recommended for

  • Excessively large breasts affecting daily comfort
  • Breast sagging after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or aging
  • Breast asymmetry or shape concerns
  • Neck, shoulder, or upper back discomfort related to breast weight
  • Difficulty finding properly fitting clothing or underwear
  • Self-consciousness related to breast size

What is REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY? How It Works
REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY is a breast reduction procedure that addresses excessive breast volume, breast ptosis, and physical discomfort by surgically removing excess breast tissue, fat, and skin.
During the procedure, excess tissue is removed while preserving breast shape and proportion. Because reducing volume alone can leave the nipple positioned too low on the breast mound, the nipple-areola complex is typically repositioned to a higher, more youthful location. The amount of tissue removed and the surgical design are individualized to each patient's anatomy and goals.

Restoring Proportion While Improving Breast Shape
Breast reduction and mammoplasty procedures address more than size. They can also improve breast position, symmetry, and overall contour — concerns that often stem from aging, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, or breastfeeding, rather than breast volume alone.
Surgical planning at BIANCA CLINIC is customized to your body proportions and desired outcome. For patients whose primary concern is sagging rather than size, breast lift procedures may be discussed separately during consultation.

Established Surgical Techniques and Breastfeeding Considerations
Reduction mammoplasty is carefully planned to balance the desired degree of breast reduction with the preservation of long-term breast function whenever possible. Our surgeons generally utilize the McKissock technique, a widely adopted surgical approach used internationally in appropriate candidates.
Because the milk ducts are typically preserved, breastfeeding may remain possible following surgery. That said, larger-volume reductions require greater glandular tissue removal, which could affect future breastfeeding potential. Patients considering future pregnancy should discuss their plans with their physician during consultation.

Преимущества

Physician-Led Surgical Planning

Successful reduction mammoplasty results depend heavily on thoughtful surgical planning. Breast dimensions, skin quality, degree of ptosis, and future lifestyle considerations are assessed individually before any treatment recommendation is made — an approach that supports balanced, natural-looking outcomes.

Addressing Multiple Concerns Through a Single Procedure

REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY can reduce breast size while also addressing sagging, asymmetry, and discomfort related to excessive breast weight. By reducing volume and repositioning the nipple-areola complex in a single operation, the procedure improves both physical comfort and breast contour at once.

Established Clinical Experience

Reduction mammoplasty is a well-established breast surgery performed worldwide. The surgical approach is carefully tailored to each patient's anatomy, symptoms, and treatment goals.
All surgery carries inherent risks and potential complications. Your physician will explain the details of the procedure and associated risks during your consultation.

Основные характеристики

Reducing the Physical Burden of Excessively Large Breasts
Large breasts can contribute to neck strain, shoulder discomfort, poor posture, and difficulty with exercise or sports. Reduction mammoplasty indications often extend well beyond cosmetic concerns — the functional challenges that affect daily life are just as significant.
At consultation, your physician will evaluate whether breast reduction surgery is appropriate based on your anatomy, symptoms, and goals.
Lifting Sagging Breasts While Reducing Volume
Breast sagging occurs for many reasons: aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, and the long-term effects of gravity. During REDUCTION MAMMOPLASTY, the nipple and areola are repositioned while excess tissue is removed — improving breast shape and volume in a single step.
Because both concerns are addressed simultaneously, many patients seek treatment for a combination of breast size and breast ptosis, not one or the other.
Treatment Planning Tailored to Your Ideal Breast Shape
No single breast size is right for everyone. The most appropriate outcome depends on body proportions, lifestyle, clothing preferences, and personal goals — and all of these factors shape the surgical plan.
At BIANCA CLINIC, consultation focuses on understanding your desired breast size, contour, and long-term plans, including any future pregnancy considerations. Surgical recommendations are then customized accordingly.
