Why Do People Get Liposuction On Their Breasts (and Chests)?

Liposuction (also known as lipoplasty and suction lipectomy) is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries in America

. Each year, somewhere between three and four hundred thousand Americans usually undergo this surgery.

The surgery removes fat from people's bodies. However, it does not remove it all over the body like exercise and diet. Rather, the effects of a lipoplasty can be targeted directly where the patient wants. This means that there is a much greater opportunity for spot correcting than with most forms of fat loss.

There are a number of very popular areas for lipoplasty, including the belly and flanks, the hips, the butt and the thighs. It might surprise some people to know that the breasts are rather popular areas for liposuction among both genders. Although the reasons for this popularity are different between men and women, both genders undergo this surgery.

In women, this surgery is performed for cosmetic, health-related and comfort-related reasons. Some women simply feel that their breasts are too large for their body, or they hope that reducing the size of their breasts would help them to be perkier. Some women actually experience neck and shoulder pain and tension headaches because of the weight of their breasts. Other women simply want to be able to participate more fully in athletic activities without the hassle of large breasts hampering one's movements.

Among men, lipoplasty of the breast is purely cosmetic. Many men feel that to store excessive amounts of fat around the breast makes them seem somehow feminine. They feel that extra chest fat will make it look like they are developing breasts. This can both feel awkward and like a blow to their masculinity. In fact, some amount of breast fat is common in men. Some studies suggest that as much as 50% of all men will experience some unwanted breast swelling at some time in their life. However, knowing statistics like this does not always make it feel less awkward to go swimming or be seen shirtless. For men who struggle with excess fat deposits around the breast ("pseudo-gynecomastia"), lipoplasty can be very helpful.

Whether the patient is male or female, whether he or she is looking to improve a masculine or a feminine physique, whether the patient is trying to escape locker room ridicule from his buddies or to escape shoulder pain and headaches, lipoplasty of the breast can be very helpful for some people. If you think that this procedure could help you, please consider speaking with a surgeon in your area.
