Macromastia Foundation is an organization that helps women with excessively large breasts undergo surgery to have them reduced.

WHAT IS MACROMASTIA?

Macromastia also known as (Breast Hypertrophy)  is a condition of having abnormally large breasts  which grow overtime due to excessive growth of breast tissue. This could start from puberty, during pregnancy and continue into adult life.

As a result, women eventually start suffering from back and shoulder pain, emotional distress, physical discomfort, mental health problems and embarrassment because of the size and shape of their breasts.

Unfortunately, non-surgical treatments often provide little or no relief. Breast reduction surgery is considered a safe and effective treatment for macromastia condition  and it offers a life changing results.

This foundation was started to create awareness to women suffering with this condition unknowingly, and also partner with relevant organisations to help women suffering with this condition get necessary information and treatment.

We also offer emotional, psychological and mental support that results from having macromastia or breast hypertrophy  . We help women restore their confidence and be happy with their bodies.

A woman free from breast hypertrophy or macromastia is truly a happy woman!!!
