01
The Procedure

What is Breast Reduction Surgery?

Reduction mammaplasty, commonly known as breast reduction surgery, is a plastic surgery procedure aimed to decrease the size of overly large breasts. Traditional breast reduction surgery is often sought by individuals who experience physical discomfort, such as back and neck pain, skin irritation, and posture problems, due to the size of their breasts. It's also considered by those who feel self-conscious or face limitations in physical activities because of large, heavy breasts.

Patients from Arcadia

One location: Natural Results Plastic Surgery operates from a single office at 7930 E Thompson Peak Parkway, Suite 101, Scottsdale, AZ 85255. This page describes drive time and route from Arcadia to that office.

Arcadia is a neighborhood in central Phoenix located between Camelback Mountain and the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, generally bounded by Indian School Road, 44th Street, and 64th Street. Patients reach the practice via Loop 101 northbound or Tatum Boulevard / 64th Street north.

Drive time: approximately 25 to 35 minutes from Arcadia to the Natural Results office at 7930 E Thompson Peak Parkway in North Scottsdale, via Loop 101 North or SR-51 / Tatum Blvd, approximately 17 miles.

Primary route. Arcadia patients most commonly reach the office by taking 64th Street north to Camelback Road east, joining Loop 101 north, and exiting at Thompson Peak Parkway. State Route 51 north to Loop 101 east is a faster alternative when 64th Street is congested.

Alternate route. Tatum Boulevard north to Shea Boulevard east then Loop 101 north is a surface-street-first alternative that avoids the SR-51 corridor and its 24th Street ramps during weekday rush hours.

On the day of your visit. The office is approximately seventeen miles from central Arcadia. Because Arcadia sits west of Loop 101, expect a longer freeway leg than closer Scottsdale neighborhoods, plan for twenty-five to thirty-five minutes off-peak.

Traditional Technique

Traditional Breast Reduction / Breast Lift

The most common breast reduction surgery consists of using an incision called "the anchor" or a vertical T. The incision is made around the areola, extends vertically down to the breast crease, and then is followed by another horizontal incision along the direction of the fold.

This technique repositions the areola (nipple) higher, removes the extra breast tissue and skin, and places the breast higher on the chest. Your breasts will be resized, recurved, and smaller. It is important to maintain a good blood supply of the nipple-areola to reduce the risks of discoloration and/or loss of sensation.

04
Special Technique

Auto-Augmentation Breast Reduction

The auto-augmentation breast lift/reduction is similar to a traditional breast lift/reduction. A "T" incision (anchor incision) is made: around the areola, then extending vertically down to the breast crease, and then horizontal along the direction of the fold.

During the procedure, the excess skin is removed, and part of the breast tissue is adjusted if needed. The other part of the breast tissue is carefully tucked back into the breast and sutured to give an appearance of "implant." Your breasts will be fuller on the top and will give you better long-term results.
