Breast reduction surgery with Paul Banwell in London not only provides comfort but can also improve your confidence.
Breast reduction surgery is designed for women experiencing physical discomfort or emotional distress due to the size of their breasts.
The breast reduction procedure, also known as a mammoplasty, reduces the amount of breast tissue so that the breasts become lighter and smaller. Breast reduction surgery can also improve the shape of the breasts.
If you’re someone who is suffering from neck pain, back pain or emotional discomfort caused by excessively large breasts, then breast reduction surgery could help you.
Mr Paul Banwell is an award-winning cosmetic surgeon with impeccable credentials. He is a highly accredited medical author, teacher and lecturer, and is regularly featured in popular media including Tatler, Vogue, Women’s Health and the BBC.

Breast reduction surgery provides a range of benefits tailored to each patient’s unique needs. Here are some common advantages experienced by individuals undergoing the procedure:
Breast reduction surgery will typically involve an overnight stay in the hospital and you should be prepared to stay in the hospital for a couple of days.
If Mr Banwell determines that you are a suitable candidate for liposuction breast reduction then you will not usually need to stay in the hospital.
Liposuction can be a great option for younger women and teenagers who are seeking breast reduction. It can help reduce breast volume by approximately one cup size while also removing moderate amounts of fat within the breasts.
Breast reduction surgery is performed under general anaesthetic and typically takes up to 3 hours to perform. During this time Mr Banwell will remove breast tissue to reduce the breast size.
The surgical procedure involves making incision sites vertically around the nipple and under the breast crease. Mr Banwell will take great care to ensure breast reduction scars are minimised but patients typically accept that scars are a part of any cosmetic surgery procedure.
As part of your breast reduction surgery, Mr Banwell can reposition the nipple higher on the breast so that the remaining breast tissue does not appear saggy or droopy.
The surgical procedure usually involves the use of drains on either side of the chest, which is why you will be expected to stay in the hospital for 1 – 2 nights.
Mr Banwell also offers breast reduction techniques that minimise scarring, but patients with very large breasts or heavy breasts may not be suitable candidates.
It may be viable for you to have a breast reduction procedure using liposuction. Liposuction can help to remove approximately 1 cup size of breast tissue but may only be suitable for younger women whose skin will naturally retract after the breast reduction treatment.
Mr Banwell does all he can to minimise the risks and complications associated with breast reduction surgery. However, as with any cosmetic surgery procedure, there are risks involved.
You can see the list of possible complications on our breast reduction surgery fact sheet, and you’ll be able to discuss these in depth with Mr Banwell during your initial consultation.

Now that I have been ‘signed off’ I just want to thank you so much for all your care, expertise and advice. I am so happy with the result of my surgery; it has bought back a confidence which I had lost, and enabled me to wear clothes which previously wouldn’t have suited me. I will know where to come if I decide I need anything else improved!
Mr Banwell explained the details of my procedures in a professional and sensitive manner. He took the time to put me at ease and answer all my questions in a way that I could understand. Each step of my treatment from the initial consultation through to its conclusion was supported by professional who with their support enables me to have an extremely smooth journey through my procedures. For the first time in my adult life I am happy in my own skin. I would recommend Mr Banwell to anyone who has been thinking of cosmetic surgery in a heartbeat. Through his skill and understanding of the female body, he carries out his profession with the utmost care and consideration.
The results of the surgery were excellent. Four months after the surgery there is hardly any evidence of scarring. Mr Banwell was also very good at explaining the nature of the problem and the treatment.
I have been treated by Mr Banwell for excision of a nasal Squamous Cell Carcinoma and approximately 20 forehead solar keratoses by Photodynamic Therapy (PDT). During this period I have received outstanding care and attention. He and his team are very friendly and efficient. His surgical skills are exceptional.
I am totally content with the outcome of the surgery and treatment of my conditions and would wholly recommend him and his team to others. In fact, I already have!
Mr Banwell was highly recommended by a friend of a friend. She was very satisfied with results which I witnessed. I trusted what I heard and what I saw. My meetings with Mr Banwell only reassured me further. Mr Banwell offered additional discussion time pre op & several follow ups post op. His admin team were 100% helpful and efficient. His manner was approachable and accessible. I would not hesitate to recommend his professional expertise, competitive cost and charming manner. At no point did I feel judged, intimidated or overwhelmed. This was an incredibly positive experience, many thanks to Mr Banwell and the rest of the team.
I asked around and was told that Mr Banwell was the best in his field. I don’t know what my expectations were but the result was great, all my friends think my eyes look brighter and more open. I had no bruising which I was told I might have. Mr Banwell and his team excelled in making my life very easy for me, with arrangements and liaising with the hospital which didn’t always have my details correct, they were very helpful and answered all my questions, nothing was too much trouble. Mr Banwell put me at ease and I was not worried about the operation at all.
