Are large, sagging breasts weighing you down?
Breasts reduction surgery may be right for you.

Live Life the Way You Want With Breast Reduction Surgery

With a breast reduction, New York women can unburden themselves from the encumbrance of large, pendulous breasts. Back pain, neck pain, rashes under the breasts, pain during exercise and bra-strap grooves can all end after a skillfully performed breast reduction. As a New York plastic surgeon, Dr. Sterry has a great deal of experience with these problems. He understands how to help you. Furthermore, in cases where it is medically necessary, health insurance will pay for a breast reduction operation.

If you are burdened by large, pendulous breasts, you can experience new freedom after breast reduction. New York City women who have had successful breast reduction surgery, known as reduction mammoplasty, have a higher and firmer bust line. Relief from physical and emotional discomforts caused by heavy, sagging breasts is possible after a breast reduction. Dr. Sterry takes good care of his breast reduction patients, and that's why so many many people come from around the NYC metropolitan area to see him.

After a successful breast reduction, New York women can exercise more comfortably and wear fashions they want to wear. Men can also feel more confident about the way they look when taking their shirts off in public with a breast reduction.

Breast reduction surgery techniques depend on the type of breast reduction. New York patients are all individuals and each will experience different results. Furthermore, different surgical techniques involve different incisions.

  • The Wise Pattern is intended to remove excess skin from below the nipple to reduce sagging. Incisions around the areola, vertically from the bottom edge of the areola to the inframammary crease and side-to-side beneath the breast.
  • The Vertical Reduction works best for breasts with mild to moderate breast sagging. It utilizes only two incisions—one encircling the areola and the second extending vertically from the nipple to the crease beneath.

Note: Importantly, Dr. Sterry has NEVER removed a womans nipple in order to make her breasts smaller. The nipple arolar complex always remains attached to the breast throughout the breast reduction procedure.

The photos below show an actual patient who underwent breast reduction by Dr. Sterry:

This woman wore a 46 DDD bra before surgery. Dr. Sterry performed a breast reduction without removing the nipples as advocated by some surgeons. The patient now has more breast sensation after surgery than she did before.

Patient testimonials

"Dr. Sterry is amazing. He performed a lower body lift on Nov. 14, 2005 and I am thrilled with the result. He will be doing a breast/arm lift on Feb. 3. I interviewed several of the top plastic surgeons in New York City when I decided to begin my plastics and there was NO comparison when it came to Dr. Sterry."

Tummy Tuck Removes C-Section Scars

Posted on  March 14, 2011  by  drsterry

I have been asked many times if a tummy tuck scar would be made above or below a C-section scar. Patients seem to think that they will end up with two separate scars from the procedures. That's not how it works. The truth is that I routinely make my tummy tuck incisions below the C-section scars a read more »
