In the Philadelphia and Doylestown, PA and surrounding communities, women with unusually large, sagging, or uneven breasts may be helped through breast reduction surgery at Dr. Silberman's Doylestown practice. This surgery reduces the dissatisfaction some women experience due to discomfort that results from the size of their breasts or the pressure of bra straps on their shoulders. Large breasts may also interfere with physical activities and make it difficult to find clothes that fit properly. Breast reduction is usually a procedure that will be covered by insurance.
The typical breast reduction technique used in Doylestown is performed by making an incision around the areola. The incision is extended downward to the base of the breast where it joins with a horizontal incision in the crease. The incision below the areola forms an upside-down T. The length of the horizontal incision can often be kept to a small length.

Because significant amounts of breast tissue are removed, breast reduction may impair the ability to breastfeed. At our Doylestown practice, breast reduction is performed on healthy individuals who do not have a life-threatening illness or medical condition that can impair healing, and individuals with a positive outlook and specific goals in mind for improving their physical symptoms, breast size and shape.
There are several types of breast reduction surgeries but at Dr. Silberman’s surgery center in Doylestown, the general philosophy is to provide the necessary reduction with the least amount of scar possible.
