Breast Reduction Melbourne with Dr. Zinn
‘The beauty of a breast reduction is that it reduces the size of large and burdensome breasts while at the same time improving the shape, comfort, and well-being of a patient who has suffered with large breasts for most of their life." — Dr. Richard Zinn

Dr. Richard Zinn highlights that every breast reduction surgery includes a lift (mastopexy), addressing both functional and aesthetic goals. This dual approach not only improves appearance but also alleviates issues like back, neck, and shoulder pain often associated with larger breasts.
Dr. Zinn tailors his techniques to suit each patient’s needs:
- Liposuction Only: Ideal for minor reductions with minimal lifting.
- Vertical Reduction (Lollipop Incision): Best for moderate reductions, offering reshaping with less scarring.
- Inverted T (Anchor Scar): Suitable for significant reductions, providing the most comprehensive lift and reshaping.
With a focus on minimal scarring and optimal results, Dr. Zinn ensures every patient experiences comfort and satisfaction.
