Breast reductions: A look at this trending procedure and what it entails

Breast reductions are one of the most highly rated surgeries for patient satisfaction because they offer both pain relief and an aesthetic improvement in one procedure. It's no wonder this procedure has seen a notable boost in popularity during the last several years among women of all ages. According to the 2023 ASPS Plastic Surgery Statistic Report, there was a 7 percent increase in breast reductions last year alone.

We spoke with ASPS Member Surgeons Peter Krasniak, MD, and Ashley Howarth, MD, for answers to these questions, along with insights on breast reductions and their thoughts around their growing popularity.
