Can breasts be moved closer during reduction?

I’m still very much in the planning stage, but plan on getting a reduction in the next few years. I hope that there can also be some aesthetic changes in addition to the more functional one and was wondering if it’s possible to make the breasts less far apart as part of a reduction procedure? Thank you in advance

Hello,how are you?

Yes, it is definitely possible and in my experience the noblest, most versatile and least scarring technique that is possible to perform in the context of fast-recovery surgeries, if you wish. It is the SPAIR technique. I invite you to meet it and have it as an option.

Absolutely. The breasts can be brought slightly closer together to give more cleavage and a better shape. Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon for your consult and surgery. Best of luck!

Perhaps yes and perhaps no. No one can tell you without examining you in consultation. You just need to see a board surgeon close to home for consultation.
