September 30, 2022
Large breasts can cause emotional and physical distress. You can relieve yourself of this burden with a breast reduction procedure. This minimal-incision procedure decreases breast volume to ease back pain and gives you a new level of confidence. Dr. Langdon performs No-Scar breast reduction to avoid large incisions and scars and to let you heal more quickly.Â
What is Breast Reduction?
Large breasts are more than an aesthetic issue. They can cause significant discomfort, keep you from engaging in many activities and make you self-conscious. Breast reduction removes excess fat to decrease breast size. A traditional breast reduction includes a large incision under the breast and surgical removal of excess breast tissue, fat and skin. This incision will leave a significant and visible scar.

Can I Get a Breast Reduction Without Scars?
You can have a breast reduction that leaves no visible scars. Dr. Langdon performs a No-Scar breast reduction. This procedure is an excellent choice for women who want to reduce breast size without scarring.
During the procedure, your breasts are numbed with a tumescent anesthetic solution. Micro-cannulas, small blunt instruments, are inserted and used to break up and remove excess fat gently. The incisions used for these tiny instruments are so small that they do not need sutures after the procedure. Although this procedure does not remove loose skin, most women will see their skin rebound and contract with the excess weight removed.
If you want a more noticeable lift, you might prefer a traditional breast reduction. This makes a good option for those who want more dramatic results and do not mind visible scars. This method also comes with a longer recovery time.
What are the Benefits of Breast Reduction?
Breast reduction can change your life in many ways. Many women feel more confident and free to do things they would have avoided. Benefits include:
- Relief from the shoulder, back, and neck pain
- Visible reduction in breast size
- Easier to find stylish, comfortable clothes
- Engage in sports or jogging without discomfort
- Avoid an unwanted focus on your breasts
- Improve your posture

How Much Does Breast Reduction Cost?
The cost of breast reduction varies widely. Factors that affect pricing include your location, your surgeon, and the type of surgery. Because No-Scar breast reduction is less invasive, it may not be comparable to the cost of a traditional procedure. On average, breast reduction costs $5,913, but your price may be higher or lower.
What is Recovery Like After Breast Reduction?
Recovery after No-Scar breast reduction happens rapidly. Most people can return to work and their usual activities after two to three days. Dr. Langdon will give you other post-surgical instructions to ensure you heal quickly. If you have a traditional breast reduction, you can expect a week or more of recovery before returning to normal activities.
Dr Langdon changed my life ! From the first consult with his staff nurse Carol, to meeting him and discussing my concerns, and then to the day of the procedure, I felt very at ease and that this was the right procedure for me. I did my research very carefully for the lipo breast reduction and also consulted with other practices before I saw Dr. Langdon. For all you gals out there who want to get the weight of your chest, but aren’t up to the drudgery of having a full breast reduction, do yourself a favor by consulting with Dr Langdon to see if you are a good candidate for this procedure. He made it seamless and easy, and after only one week I am feeling so much lighter. He absolutely knows what he is doing, and is a very pleasant person to boot. The girls in his office are great, and make you feel very welcome. There is no Barbie Doll syndrome there. Thank You Dr Langdon for your work, I now feel that I can continue my goal of weight loss knowing that my body is now more proportional and it will be easier to get out there and work on my goals without carrying all that topside weight!
