I would normally be upset at a surgeon sending out a press release bragging that they had done an extraordinary number of a procedure.  But I feel differently here.

I first learned about doing scarless breast reduction by liposuction from Dr. Eugene Courtiss, while I was a surgery resident at Harvard.  But it was years later that Dr. Lawrence Gray started speaking out and repopularizing this technique, and I credit much of what I know to what he has taught.

The results with this procedure can be so outstanding I just can’t quite figure out why it hasn’t caught on more generally.  Sure, there are limitations, namely that we can never guarantee how much weight we will be able to remove and how much the breast skin will snap back.  But even considering those issues, the results have been overwhelmingly wonderful, with less pain, recovery, and of course, scarring.

Check out my own results: https://www.drteitelbaum.com/before_after_photos_breast_liporeduction1.html  .  Sure, the amount of reduction and lift is not the same as when I do regular reductions https://www.drteitelbaum.com/before_after_photos_breast_reduction.html , but with a total absence of scars and an easy recovery, it is the choice of many women.
