In Barcelona, breast reduction patients are seen at the Instituto de Benito clinic on Av. Diagonal, 490, 1º 1ª, in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, and the surgery is performed at Clínica Diagonal. The center is authorized by the health authority under registration number E08585688.
Breast reduction, or reduction mammoplasty, removes excess breast tissue, fat and skin to give a smaller, lighter and lifted breast in proportion to the body. Besides the aesthetic change, it usually relieves the back and neck pain and the chafing that very large breasts cause. It is done under general anesthesia, takes two to three hours and usually involves one night in hospital.
The price starts at €8,500 and depends on the volume to be removed, the technique and how much the breast has dropped. Financing is available for up to 48 months, 12 of them interest-free. In Barcelona you are seen by Dr. Marina García.
