This 28-year-old female patient was experiencing back pain and bra strap discomfort due to the large size of her breasts. Physical therapy was ineffective at relieving her pain. Following her consultation and recommendation with Dr. Therani, she underwent a bi-lateral Wise-pattern breast reduction, which is the original breast lift procedure that simply lifts and shapes the breasts rather than focusing on excessive interior breast tissue removal. Her procedure has given her more normal-sized looking breasts. Dr. Kevin Tehrani, MD, FACS, is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a fellow of the American College of Surgeons.
