Breast Reduction Overview
Consultation
Your breast reduction begins with a 60-minute consultation with Dr. Hunsicker.
During this time, she’ll review your medical history, discuss your aesthetic goals, and explain the surgical process. Dr. Hunsicker will ensure your mammogram is current and may request bloodwork to prepare for a safe, successful surgery. If breast reduction in Littleton, CO, is the right choice, we’ll schedule your pre-op and surgery dates.
Pre-Op
About 2 weeks before your procedure, you’ll have a preoperative visit.
Dr. Hunsicker will finalize your surgical plan, review your health status, answer questions, and have you sign consent forms. You’ll receive a surgical package with a green smoothie recipe, protein drinks, probiotics, scar cream, and Hibiclens surgical scrub to support your recovery.
Surgery & Follow-Up
Please arrive 2 hours early on surgery day to allow ample time for check-in.
After your procedure, we’ll prescribe medications and antibiotics to ease recovery. Dr. Hunsicker will check in the following day to monitor your progress and address any concerns. We provide ongoing support throughout the healing process, which is why we schedule follow-up visits at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 6 months, and 1 year.

Pre-Care Instructions
We offer a green smoothie recipe and protein drinks rich in essential nutrients. Proper nutrition plays a key role in supporting a smoother surgical experience.
Set up a comfortable recovery space at home before your surgery. Use pillows to keep your chest elevated and reduce strain. Plan to take time off work and limit daily activities to allow your body time to rest and heal.
Post-Care Instructions
To manage discomfort effectively, take all prescribed medications as directed. You may also use over-the-counter options like Tylenol for additional relief.
Steer clear of NSAIDs and avoid any strenuous physical activity. Do not use hot tubs, swimming pools, or baths.
Prioritize rest to support recovery. Take time off work, and use the provided antibacterial soap to gently clean your incision areas as you heal.
The weight of excess breast tissue can make daily life challenging and significantly limit your ability to be active or comfortable. Simple movements like exercising, walking, or standing for extended periods can cause persistent back, neck, and shoulder pain. Beyond the physical strain, many women can experience emotional discomfort and self-consciousness related to the size of their breasts.
The emotional impact is just as significant as the physical discomfort, affecting social interactions, mental well-being, and quality of life. Breast reduction surgery addresses both the physical and emotional challenges, helping women feel more comfortable in their bodies and self-image.
Breast reduction is a safe procedure when performed by a board-certified surgeon like Dr. Hunsicker. The risks of breast reduction vary from patient to patient, and all surgery involves some inherent risks. Once we’ve discussed your health history at your consultation, Dr. Hunsicker can review some of the most common concerns for breast reduction surgery.
This procedure, performed under general anesthesia, takes about 2 to 4 hours, but can be as long as 6 in some cases. We offer surgery on an outpatient basis. In some circumstances, Dr. Hunsicker can use LipoSelection by VASER. This technique may be an option for some women who are concerned about the scarring often left by traditional breast surgery.
