Breast reduction is routinely performed at our Robert Zubowski MD Center for Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in Paramus, NJ, for reducing breast weight, volume and size. It is also a means of eliminating the daily discomforts and annoyances associated with large breasts. During your consultation, New Jersey board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Robert Zubowski, a recognizable name in the field of plastic surgery, will customize your reduction procedure so the results look elegant and natural. He may also suggest additional body contouring procedures, such as liposuction or an abdominoplasty to create an even more dramatic transformation. If you are tired of the embarrassment and painful medical problems associated with breasts that are too large, a reduction may be your answer. The procedure involves the removal of excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breast area, leaving you with smaller, firmer breasts that can make you appear younger and thinner. While there will be some residual scarring, Dr. Zubowski, because of his formidable breast surgery experience and skill, can typically keep scarring to a minimum. Often, it’s possible to make very minimal incisions and remove the majority of excess breast fat through liposuction.

The fees for breast reduction varies, depending upon the work you wish to have done, the kind of anesthesia chosen, and surgery center fees. Once you’ve had your in person consultation with Dr. Zubowski, our Patient Coordinator, Dana Van Gray, will be be able to give you a detailed quote. In some cases, a breast reduction procedure may be covered under your private health insurance plan so it is wise to check your eligibility for these payments prior to booking your surgery.

We understand that a breast reduction procedure goes beyond cost. Experience, background, and comfort level with your doctor and his staff are as important as the total cost of the surgery.

Dr. Zubowski is widely recognized as among the top NJ plastic surgeons in New Jersey.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Reduction

Breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty) removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve a size proportional to your body. It is ideal for those whose overly large breasts cause neck, back, or shoulder pain, skin irritation beneath the fold, or limitations in daily activities and exercise.

Incisions are made around the areola and vertically down the breast (and sometimes along the crease). Excess tissue and skin are removed, and the nipple–areola complex is repositioned for a natural look. Dr. Zubowski selects the exact technique based on your anatomy and goals.

Days 1-3: Swelling, bruising, and discomfort—manage with medication and a supportive bra.
Week 1: Many patients return to light work and activities.
Weeks 2-6: Gradual resumption of normal routines and exercise as advised.
Carefully follow all post-operative instructions for the best healing and outcome.

  • Scarring
  • Changes in nipple or breast sensation
  • Asymmetry
  • Infection or bleeding

Meticulous adherence to Dr. Zubowski’s pre- and post-operative guidance keeps these risks low.

Breastfeeding may still be possible, but it depends on the technique. Discuss future nursing plans with Dr. Zubowski so ducts and nerves can be preserved when feasible.

Costs vary. Insurance may cover the procedure if it is medically necessary (e.g., chronic pain, skin rashes). Check with both your provider and Dr. Zubowski’s office to confirm eligibility and documentation requirements.

Scars are unavoidable but usually fade over time and are placed in discreet locations. Proper wound care and sun protection, as directed by Dr. Zubowski, help them become less noticeable.

Results are long-lasting, but factors such as aging, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can alter breast shape. Staying at a stable weight and maintaining a healthy lifestyle help preserve your outcome.

Surgery is usually deferred until breast development is complete. However, younger patients experiencing significant discomfort or emotional distress may be candidates after thorough evaluation with Dr. Zubowski.

Yes. Reducing breast weight often relieves back, neck, and shoulder pain and improves posture, comfort, and activity levels, enhancing overall quality of life.
