Because you deserve to feel light, comfortable, and confident again
If you’ve been living with heavy breasts, you know it’s not just about appearance.
It’s the constant shoulder ache. The grooves your bra straps leave. The back pain after a long day. The quiet frustration when clothes don’t fit how they should.
You’re not alone, and you don’t have to “just live with it.”
At Dhanwantari’s Chrysalis in Pune, we’ve helped countless women reclaim ease and balance through breast reduction surgery, also known as reduction mammoplasty.
This isn’t about changing who you are.
It’s about helping your body feel like it finally matches your spirit.
What Is Breast Reduction Surgery?
Think of breast reduction surgery as a gentle reset for your body.
It removes the excess fat, tissue, and skin that make your breasts feel heavy, reshaping them into a size that fits your body comfortably.
For many women, it’s not a cosmetic wish; it’s a medical and emotional relief.
They come in because of pain and posture issues. They leave lighter, freer, and often, happier.
At Chrysalis, the goal isn’t just smaller breasts; it’s about achieving better balance, natural lift, and comfort that lasts.
Who is the Right Candidate?
You might be a good candidate for breast reduction surgery in Pune if:
- You constantly feel weighed down by large, heavy breasts
- Your shoulders or back hurt by the end of each day
- You’ve tried supportive bras and exercises, but still feel discomfort.
- You notice rashes, posture issues, or trouble during workouts
- You feel self-conscious wearing fitted clothes.
- You simply want to feel lighter and more at ease.
If this sounds familiar, this surgery isn’t about vanity; it’s about relief.
During your private consultation, Dr. Salil Patil, a board-certified plastic surgeon, will help you decide what’s right for your body with complete honesty, clarity, and compassion.
Why Women Choose Breast Reduction
Every woman has her own story, but their reasons share a pattern – freedom.
Freedom from pain. From self-consciousness. From hiding under loose clothes.
Here’s what most women tell us after their surgery:
- “My back doesn’t hurt anymore.”
- “I can finally run without discomfort.”
- “For the first time, my clothes fit right.”
That’s the transformation we aim for, not just a new shape, but a new sense of ease.
Breast Reduction Surgery in Pune & PCMC: Techniques We Use
At Chrysalis, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all surgery.
Every breast reduction plan is personalised, tailored to your anatomy, lifestyle, and comfort goals.
Here are the options we use:
1. Liposuction-Only Reduction
Perfect for women whose breasts are mostly fatty with a firm skin tone.
Tiny incisions, quick healing, minimal scars.
It gently removes fat to make your breasts lighter and better balanced.
2. Vertical (Lollipop) Technique
Used when breasts are moderately large or sagging.
It involves an incision around the areola and straight down, allowing sculpting, tissue removal, and a natural lift.
You get smaller, perkier breasts with only a faint “lollipop” scar.
3. Anchor (Inverted-T) Technique
For very large or drooping breasts.
It allows for the most precise reshaping, removing excess skin, lifting the nipple, and restoring natural proportions. Although it leaves a hidden scar under the fold, the relief and results make it more worthwhile.
Each method is carefully chosen and always discussed with you in detail before surgery.
4. Periareolar (Donut) Mastopexy
A good choice when you need a small to moderate reduction or reshaping, especially if the main concern is nipple position or mild sagging.
The incision is placed only around the areola, allowing subtle lifting and tightening with minimal scarring.
It enhances shape and symmetry while maintaining a naturally rounded breast mound.
How the Surgery Happens
Here’s what the journey looks like:
Before Surgery
You’ll meet Dr. Patil in complete privacy.
He’ll listen to your story, assess your health, and plan the safest, most effective approach.
During Surgery
- Performed under general anaesthesia
- Takes 2–4 hours, depending on your size and technique.
- Removes excess fat, tissue, and skin
- Nipple repositioned to a natural, lifted level.
- Breast reshaped for symmetry and softness.
After Surgery
You’ll rest for a few hours before going home the same day or the next morning.
A soft surgical bra will support your healing and comfort.
Recovery and Aftercare
Healing from breast reduction surgery in Pune is smoother than most expect.
Here’s what you can anticipate:
Complete Privacy
Your journey is personal. We ensure confidential consultations and discreet care at every step.
Days 1–3
You’ll feel sore, similar to muscle fatigue. Medication helps.
Sleep with your upper body slightly raised.
Keep the bra on for continuous support.
Weeks 1–2
Most swelling fades.
You can return to light desk work or indoor activity.
Avoid overhead lifting or gym workouts for now.
Weeks 3–6
You’ll notice your breasts settling into their new shape.
Scars start fading.
Short walks and light activity are fine.
After 6 Weeks
You’ll move freely, pain-free, with breasts that finally feel like they belong to you.
The full results will continue to be refined over the next few months.
How Life Feels After Breast Reduction
The change isn’t just visible in the mirror; it’s something you feel the first morning after recovery.
That familiar weight on your chest is gone. You stand taller without even trying. You catch your reflection and notice your shoulders aren’t hunched anymore.
Your clothes fit differently. Not tighter, not looser, just right.
Simple things, like walking upstairs or lying on your back, suddenly feel effortless.
And while the world might notice the change on the outside, what matters most is how you feel inside – calm, light, and finally comfortable in your own body.
The Benefits You Can Expect From Breast Reduction Surgery in Pune & PCMC at Chrysalis
Beyond comfort, this surgery offers something more intangible – ease.
- Ease of movement: Exercise becomes enjoyable, rather than painful.
- Ease in posture: Standing straight feels natural again.
- Ease in confidence: Clothes don’t define your body; you do.

Any surgery has risks. But being informed means you’re in control, and we want you to feel exactly that: informed, calm, and cared for.

Common Questions Answered By Dr. Salil
Will I be in pain after surgery?
Not during surgery. Afterwards, expect mild soreness, similar to that experienced after a good workout. Medication helps, and most women feel normal within a week.
Will I have scars?
Tiny ones, placed where they hide naturally. With time and care, they fade beautifully, often barely visible.
Can I breastfeed later?
In many cases, yes. Dr. Patil uses techniques that preserve milk ducts whenever possible.
Will this really help my back pain?
Almost always, yes. Lighter breasts mean less strain on your spine and shoulders; the relief is noticeable within days.
Is it worth travelling to India for this?
Many of our international patients say it’s the best decision they’ve made, for both the care and the comfort they received here.
