Is Breast Reduction Safe for Young Women? Plastic Surgery Hot Topics with Rod J. Rohrich, MD

Last year, over 100 thousand American women had breast reductions. And it’s no surprise: macromastia- or overly large breasts- can cause psychosocial issues and severe back pain. Even though macromastia can affect women from the onset of puberty, performing breast reductions in women under 21 is still considered to be controversial by some, due to potential minor complications. In this video, Rod J. Rohrich, MD, Editor-in-Chief of “Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery,” discusses a new study which investigates the safety and outcomes of breast reduction surgery for adolescents and young women. Read the September 2019 PRS #PlasticSurgery article, “Complications and Quality of Life following Reduction Mammaplasty in Adolescents and Young Women,” by Nuzzi, Firriolo, Pike, DiVasta, and Labow.
