Breast reduction surgery, also referred to as Reduction Mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to eliminate surplus skin, fat, and breast tissue from a patient's breasts. The primary objective of this surgery is to decrease breast size while simultaneously enhancing the shape and elevation of the breasts.

Reduction Mammaplasty is opted for by women for a variety of reasons, which include:
1. Excessive breast size - Macromastia, a medical condition characterized by abnormally large breasts, can result in significant physical discomfort and social embarrassment. This discomfort may manifest as shoulder pain, back pain, and alterations in nipple-areola sensation.
2. Disproportionate or asymmetrical breasts - Some women may have breasts that are not in proportion to their body or breasts that have an uneven shape.
3. Psychological distress - Large breasts can cause mental stress for many women, impacting their self-confidence and self-esteem.
