Someone who has actually benefited from using breast reduction cream will certainly believe that using creams and pills is much better than surgery to reduce breast size. However, breast reduction creams may not be the best option in every case.
Many women have to rely on breast reduction surgery to reduce their breast size effectively. So, today, we are going to discuss which method is better- breast reduction cream and breast reduction surgery.

Breast Reduction Cream- Things You Should Know
If you search the methods of breast reduction on the internet, the first thing that will pop up is breast reduction creams. Commonly known products are-
- VLCC Shape Up Breast Reduction Cream
- In-Life Breast Reduction Cream
- Naturalis Breast Reduction Cream
- Hashmi Cute B Cream
- Alexaderm Breast Reduction & Contouring Cream
These products claim that massaging the cream on the breasts helps to reduce their size in two ways. The first way is by modifying the body’s hormones, and the second way is by using chemicals to target and reduce fat tissues.
The manufacturers and sellers state that the hormones are altered with these creams, but there is no scientific evidence to support this. The same is true for the chemical-based creams in which the key ingredients are nicotine and caffeine. Though caffeine can actually get through the skin and reach the bloodstream, there are no significant results shown with this technique as well.
Furthermore, none of these breast reduction creams are approved by the FDA and considered safe for you. But regular use of the cream can cause redness, itching, tingling sensation, or skin darkening. If a pregnant woman uses any of these creams, they can cause complications in the child too.

Does Breast Reduction Cream Work?
The most commonly circulated and wrong information about breast reduction is that the creams and pills available on the market reduce the size of the breasts. Unfortunately, there is no magic cream, pill, or potion that can naturally reduce breast size.
Breast reduction creams are considered safer practice than using pills. Yet, they are ineffective, just like pills. The ingredients used in the cream and pills are the same as diet pills which may induce weight loss. And if you have excess fat tissues in the breast region, then the size may become slightly smaller after weight loss, making you believe that these breast reduction creams can work.
But you should always remember this- Breast Reduction Cream Does Not Work. If it worked in your case, you should know that there must be another medical reason behind the reduction in breast size.
P.S.- If these creams have worked properly, most women won’t be willing to have breast reduction surgery.
Breast Reduction Surgery- Things You Should Know
We understand that you would like nothing more than a method of breast reduction without surgery. Yet, despite the technological advancements in the cosmetic and aesthetic industry, there is no safer and more effective method of breast reduction than surgery.
Yes, we agree that the surgery has some risks, slightly longer downtime, and may cause scarring, but most women who’ve had the surgery agree that it is worth it. Breast reduction surgery will successfully remove the extra fat from the breasts.
If you have large breasts that are out of proportion or cause pain and stiffness in the back, neck, and shoulders, then breast reduction or reduction mammaplasty is your best option.
Benefits of Breast Reduction Surgery
To understand the value of the procedure, you need to be aware of the potential benefits it offers. Here are some key benefits of breast reduction surgery-
- You get to choose the size of the breasts. The surgeon will suggest the reduction size that is medically appropriate but along with that, if you want to further reduce the size, you can get it done.
- Surgery will alleviate the painful symptoms. The backaches, neck pain, and shoulder pain will be gone after the surgery once the size is smaller than before. The chances of an under-boob rash will also be lower.
- You will get a breast lift alongside. When the excessive tissues are removed from the breasts, they are also reshaped and the nipple location is also modified. It gives a lifting effect to the breasts. And you can specifically ask the surgeon to do a breast lift combined with breast reduction.
- The downtime after breast reduction is only 1-week maximum. Following the surgery, you can resume all activities as soon as possible, given that you wear a compression bra 24x7 to keep the muscles in place and support the tissues. You can also go back to work after 1 week.
- The procedure has minimal effect on breastfeeding or milk production. The major concern a woman has while considering breast reduction is the effect on the milk glands. And the good thing is that these issues are kept intact during the surgery so that the woman can breastfeed even after the procedure.
Breast reduction is an all-in-one procedure to address large breasts, get rid of pain, reduce sagging, and improve breast shape and contour. The fat tissues, glandular tissues, and excess skin are removed altogether. Thus, the results are long-lasting. But keep in mind that the remaining fat cells can grow and shrink, which may impact the breast size.
Is breast reduction surgery safe?
Yes, breast reduction surgery is completely safe when performed by and under the supervision of an expert plastic surgeon. Only a surgeon who is well-trained and has ample knowledge will be able to identify the risks associated with the procedure for a particular patient. Hence, the safety and success rate primarily depends on the doctor. That’s why it is important that you find a reliable cosmetic or plastic surgeon with the necessary skills.
