Related Services We Offer
Male breast reduction
Male breast reduction addresses enlarged breast tissue in men, a condition known as gynecomastia. Dr. Mordkovich tailors each plan to flatten and contour the chest for a firmer, more masculine profile.
Breast Implant Removal
Breast implant removal is designed for patients who no longer want their implants. The procedure is planned around your goals and anatomy so the result looks natural and balanced.
Axillary Skin Excision
Axillary skin excision removes excess skin and tissue near the underarm area that can remain after weight changes or alongside breast surgery. Treating this zone can refine the transition between the chest, underarm, and upper arm.
Breast reduction Tummy Tuck
A breast reduction tummy tuck addresses both the breasts and the abdomen in one coordinated plan. This combined approach lets you work toward a more proportionate figure with a single surgical recovery.
Mini Tummy Tuck
A mini tummy tuck targets loose skin and stubborn fullness below the belly button. It suits patients whose concerns are concentrated in the lower abdomen rather than across the entire midsection.
Awake Chin Lipo
Awake chin lipo removes unwanted fat beneath the chin while you remain alert under local anesthesia. The goal is a cleaner, more defined jawline and neck profile.
Non-Surgical Skin Tightening
Non-surgical skin tightening helps improve the look of lax skin without incisions. It can be a good option for patients who want subtle firming with minimal interruption to daily life.

FAQ About Breast Reduction in Fort Lee, NJ
What does it mean to have an awake breast reduction?
An awake breast reduction is performed with local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia. The treatment area is numbed so you feel comfortable while remaining conscious and able to communicate, which many patients find reassuring.
How long is recovery after breast reduction?
Most patients wear a support bra or elastic bandage after surgery and return to work in 1 to 2 weeks if their job is not physically demanding. Strenuous activity is typically avoided for 4 to 6 weeks, and swelling can take a few months to fully resolve.
How much does breast reduction cost?
Breast reduction for patients from Fort Lee, NJ typically ranges from $7,000 to $12,000, though pricing varies by provider, anatomy, and treatment plan, and insurance may contribute when large breasts cause documented health problems. Request a personalized quote during your consultation.
How is the breast reduction procedure performed?
After local anesthesia is applied, Dr. Mordkovich typically uses an anchor incision around the areola, down to the breast crease, and along the crease. Excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin are removed, the remaining tissue is reshaped, and the nipple and areola are repositioned before the incisions are closed in layers.
