Are there any reasons why I shouldn’t have breast reduction surgery?

If you have unrealistic expectations or are experiencing severe mental distress then this surgery might not be appropriate for you.

If you are prone to poor wound healing or the formation of angry, red scars called ‘keloids’ then your surgeon might not be keen for you to undergo surgery. If you are able to have surgery then he/she will warn you that you are likely to have raised, visible scars.

However, your surgeon is the best one to decide upon your suitability for surgery. He/she will assess your physical and general health as well as your reasons for surgery. There are strict guidelines regarding cosmetic surgery which are designed to safeguard you and your surgeon.

The last thing he/she wants is for you to undergo a surgical procedure which may not be beneficial or good for your health.
