DR. ARUN RAO

Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Hello, I’m Dr. Arun Rao, the heart and soul behind Rao Plastic Surgery in Tucson, AZ. My journey in medicine is not just a career; it’s a calling deeply influenced by my diverse educational background and my commitment to my community. After graduating from Northwestern University, I embarked on an enriching medical education journey in Puerto Rico at the Universidad Central del Caribe. This experience not only shaped my medical skills but also deepened my appreciation for diverse cultures and perspectives.

Breast Lift procedure details

This is a 55-year-old woman living in Tucson, AZ that had come to Rao Plastic Surgery to discuss a breast reduction. She was an F cup and had been experiencing back, neck, and shoulder pain as the result of the weight of her breasts. She also would frequently get rashes in the folds of her breasts and would also have bra strap grooving from the weight of her breast in her shoulders from her bra straps. Her mammograms had been normal and she denied a family history of breast problems. felt that she would benefit from a breast reduction, as well as a mastopexy. I explained that a breast reduction with a lift would reduce the weight of her breasts and improve the symptoms that she is experiencing. I also explained that included with this breast reduction is a “breast lift” which would improve the initial ptosis of her breasts. In a breast reduction we raise the position of the nipple areola complex so it is centered over the breast. She underwent her breast reduction at an outpatient surgery facility in Tucson, AZ. I used a Weiss pattern incision for her breast reduction. She tolerated surgery well and was discharged home that day. Her postoperative recovery went smoothly. She is now three months out and she is no longer experiencing any of the symptoms she had prior to surgery, such as back pain and rashes. She is a lot more confident and comfortable than before!
