Breast reduction by Dr Omar Quaba was the best decision I could have made.
From consultation to after care, the team at Spire and Dr Quaba himself were great. I felt very supported in my decision to have this procedure and more importantly, it was particularly wonderful to feel understood regarding the way I felt and the reasons I wanted and, more importantly needed the reduction. My life has improved massively since my surgery and I now have the confidence to do things I’d never have done before! This was a truly life changing procedure for myself and I’m so glad I found Dr Quaba. I highly recommend Dr Quaba ☺️

Benefits of Breast Reduction
Alleviation of back, neck, and shoulder pain
Large breasts can cause chronic pain and strain on the back, neck, and shoulders, often affecting posture and daily activities. Breast reduction relieves this physical burden, significantly improving comfort and overall mobility..
Below are some key benefits of breast reduction:
Improved posture
Improved posture
The weight of large breasts often leads to poor posture and associated discomfort. Breast reduction surgery helps restore a natural, upright posture, reducing strain on the spine and promoting long-term physical health.
Easier engagement in physical activities

Excess breast tissue can make exercise uncomfortable or even painful. A breast reduction allows you to move more freely and engage in a wider range of physical activities, enhancing your fitness and wellbeing.
Enhanced clothing fit and options

Breast reduction reshapes and repositions the breasts to achieve a more balanced and natural look. This not only improves your silhouette but also enhances your overall body confidence and self-image.
