Breast Reduction Surgery in Gangnam, Seoul
Feel Lighter. Live Freer. Love Your Shape.
Are overly large breasts causing you discomfort, posture issues, or self-consciousness? At our clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, we offer personalized breast reduction surgery tailored to your needs—whether for medical relief or aesthetic balance.
What Are My Breast Reduction Options?
Breast reduction surgery (reduction mammoplasty) is designed to reduce the size, volume, and weight of the breasts. It can address chronic pain, skin irritation, and emotional discomfort caused by disproportionately large breasts. Depending on your needs, we offer several surgical techniques:
Scarless Breast Reduction (Liposuction)
Ideal for patients with fatty breast tissue and minimal sagging. This minimally invasive method reduces size with little to no visible scarring.
Vertical Scar Breast Reduction
Also known as the “lollipop” technique, this method suits patients with moderately large breasts. It involves incisions around the areola and vertically down the breast for natural reshaping.
Inverted T Breast Reduction
Recommended for very large, sagging breasts. This traditional method allows for extensive reshaping and significant tissue removal.
Breast Reduction with Free Nipple Grafts
Used in extreme cases. The nipple is repositioned after removing substantial breast tissue—ideal for patients with severe sagging or gigantomastia.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may benefit from breast reduction if you:
- Suffer from neck, shoulder, or back pain
- Have skin irritation or rashes under the breasts
- Struggle to find bras or clothes that fit properly
- Experience unwanted attention or low self-esteem
- Are at a healthy weight or have tried weight loss
- Have finished breastfeeding (at least 10 months prior)
What to Expect
During the Procedure
Performed under general anesthesia, surgery usually lasts 2 to 4 hours depending on the technique and the amount of tissue removed. Incisions vary by method and are customized to your body and goals.
Aftercare and Recovery
- Mild soreness and swelling for several days
- No surgical drains in most cases
- Surgical bra required for about three weeks
- Return to daily activities within one week
- Avoid strenuous activity for about four weeks
- Final breast shape becomes more defined over two to three months
Scar care begins at three weeks post-op and may continue for several months until scars soften and fade.
Long-Term Results
While the reduction is noticeable immediately after surgery, your new shape will refine over time as swelling decreases. Most patients report a significant improvement in comfort, posture, and self-confidence.
