Breast Reduction Cost in India

The cost of Breast Reduction in India typically ranges from $500 to $6,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.

Breast reduction removes breast tissue, fat and skin to make the breasts smaller and lighter, and lifts the nipple. The cost depends on:

• Amount of tissue removed
• Technique and scar pattern: around the nipple, a vertical scar, or an anchor-shaped scar.
• Liposuction: sometimes used alone or added.
• Hospital stay: 1–2 nights, according to NHS 111 Wales.

NHS 111 Wales describes breast reduction as an option when very large breasts cause problems such as:

• Back, neck or shoulder pain: despite a properly fitted bra.
• Skin rashes: under the breasts.
• Bra-strap grooves
• Difficulty exercising

• Breastfeeding: you may be permanently unable to breastfeed (NHS 111 Wales).
• Nipple sensation: may be reduced.
• Pregnancy: breasts can grow again during pregnancy and change the result.
• Scars: red for about six weeks, then usually fade.

• Operation: 2–3 hours under general anaesthetic.
• Drains: usually removed after 1–2 days.
• Time off: 2–3 weeks.
• Lifting and exercise: avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise for up to 6 weeks.
