There has been some celebrity buzz about Jessica Simpson and the mystery about her plans for a breast reduction. While rumor is that she thinks her large breasts make her look fat, for many women this is truly the way that they feel. Dr. Kim explains that breast reduction surgery has a dual benefit. For many women, it helps to alleviate back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and for many women numbness in the fingers. This of course, would be the first important benefit. The second benefit which is just as important, is the fact that for many women buying a bra or clothes off the rack is virtually impossible. Breast reduction surgery takes about 2 1/2 hours and for some patients they may choose to add a small implant for firmness and shape. Some call this the plus, minus procedure. For some patients, Dr. Kim may perform liposuction on the sides of the chest for better shaping. Whether Jessica Simpson chooses breast reduction or not, this procedure has one of the happiest and most satisfied patient populations.According to The Orange County Register Simpson herself used the Twitter message service on Sept. 7 to declare, “Been getting lots of questions about this alleged breast reduction…not to worry…I LOVE MY BOOBIES!! They aren’t going anywhere!”
