Breast Reduction in Raleigh, North Carolina*

Do you have a hard time finding a bra that fits? Are your large breasts causing poor posture? Do you have trouble trying to run or do other physical activities because of large breasts? Then a breast reduction might be a good solution. Breast reduction is among the most satisfying cosmetic surgery procedures performed. It not only reduces the size of the breasts but helps improve shape and lifts the nipple position. Although sometimes breast reduction is covered by insurance, the process to get approval is cumbersome and often requires proof that you have made efforts to improve neck and back pain by physical therapy and chiropractic manipulation and weight loss and even then, there is a requirement for a certain amount of breast tissue to be removed. Many women choose to pay out of pocket with the cost of a breast reduction anywhere between $10,000 and $15,000.
