Breast Reduction in Denver, Highlands Ranch, Littleton, CO

Breast Reduction in Centennial and Denver, CO.

Board Certified Denver Plastic Surgeon Dr. Paul Zwiebel can help you have just the size breasts you have always desired.

Women with overly large breasts can suffer from a myriad of negative physical and psychological conditions. Extremely large and heavy breasts often cause back problems, shoulder problems, and can prevent women from participating in physical activities. They can also be a source of embarrassment, especially if they are disproportionate to the woman’s body. At his plastic surgery center in Littleton, Colorado, board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Zwiebel is fortunate to be able to offer a solution to the problem of overly large breasts to his patients in Denver: breast reduction plastic surgery. This procedure is designed to reduce the size of the patient’s breasts and to increase overall body symmetry.

Dr. Zwiebel begins the breast reduction procedure with an incision, which is made around the areola (the dark circle of skin surrounding the nipple) and below the natural curve of the breast. Next, excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin are removed, and the remaining skin is tightened around the newly contoured breast.

In Centennial, breast reduction can be a medically necessary procedure, and, therefore, may be covered by your medical insurance carrier. However, we are not an in-network provider for any insurance company. If you would like to submit your operation costs through your insurance plan, you will need to speak to your insurance company and ask what your out-of-network benefits are for breast reduction. Also, it is important to note that many policies do not cover breast reduction as a covered benefit. In addition, for policies that do cover breast reduction, we will have to prove that your case is “medically necessary” according to the pre-set standards dictated by your insurance policy. For example, you will have to show that your breasts are causing pain, that your weight is proportionate, that you have tried non-surgical means of resolving back and neck pain, and the insurance company may require a certain amount to be removed per breast. It will be to your advantage to call your insurance provider and speak with a representative. We understand that insurance coverage can be very confusing, and we invite you to contact Dr. Zwiebel’s office in Littleton with any specific questions.

We would like to emphasize that in the city of Denver, breast reduction is a surgical procedure and, as such, carries with it some risk. We encourage all patients to learn as much about the process before undergoing breast reduction. As a board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Zwiebel encourages his patients to gather as much information as possible. Dr. Zwiebel and his friendly staff in Littleton are always ready to answer any questions or concerns you may have at any time.
