Dr. Partridge’s Breast Reduction Techniques in NJ
There are four breast reduction approaches: Lollipop, Anchor, Circumareolar, and Liposuction-Assisted Reduction. Dr. Partridge will help you choose the best breast reduction method based on breast size, skin quality, and your insurance-qualified symptoms. Each technique reduces weight, reshapes the breast, and lifts the nipple for a lighter, more balanced result, all with our 98% insurance approval rate for New Jersey breast reductions
Anchor (Inverted‑T) Reduction
This technique involves incisions around the areola, vertically to the breast fold, and along the crease. It is ideal for significant reductions or pronounced sagging and provides maximum access for tissue removal and reshaping. This helps ensure a well-contoured result.
Vertical (Lollipop) Reduction
Features an incision around the areola and vertically to the breast fold, without a horizontal cut under the breast. The Lollipop breast reduction technique is suitable for moderate reductions. It offers effective lifting with fewer visible scars.
Periareolar (Donut) Reduction
An incision is created to encircle the areola only. This technique is best for mild reductions or minimal sagging when skin elasticity is good. The Periareolar breast reduction approach delivers subtle, natural-looking changes.
Liposuction‑Only Reduction
This method removes excess fatty tissue without large incisions or significant skin removal. It is ideal when droop is minimal and skin elasticity is strong. Studies show high patient satisfaction when this method is carefully selected.
