acromastia, or benign breast hypertrophy, often leads to symptoms that can be debilitating for individuals. These include pain, intertriginous dermatitis, restrictive respiratory effort, self-esteem issues, limitations on activity participation, and others. 1 Preoperatively, patients with macromastia have been shown to have a significantly worse health-related quality of life compared to the normal population. 1 Bilateral reduction mammaplasty is a very common plastic surgery procedure undergone for macromastia. 2,3 It is known to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life, and can often be done as an outpatient procedure. 4,5 In 2018, it was the eighth most common procedure performed by plastic surgeons around the world. The number of these operations performed is also increasing over time, with an increase in 8.5 percent worldwide from 2017
