BACKGROUND: As reduction mammoplasty rises in popularity, it will become increasingly important to understand the patient-reported outcome measurements associated with a successful operation. There has been a growing body of literature on BREAST-Q outcomes for patients undergoing reduction mammoplasty, but meta-analyses of patient factors and BREAST-Q Reduction Module scores are lacking. This study sought to ascertain which patient factors were associated with improvements in BREAST-Q scores compared with preoperative levels. METHODS: A literature review through August 6, 2021, was conducted using the PubMed database to select publications using the BREAST-Q questionnaire to evaluate outcomes after reduction mammoplasty. Studies examining breast reconstruction, breast augmentation, oncoplastic reduction, or breast cancer patients were excluded. BREAST-Q data were stratified by comorbidities, age, body mass index (BMI), complication rate, and resection weight. RESULTS: Among 14 articles and 1816 patients, the mean age ranged from 15.8 to 55 years, mean BMI ranged from 22.5 to 32.4 kg/m2, and bilateral mean resected weight ranged from 323 to 1845.96 g. Overall complication rate was 19.9%. On average, satisfaction with breasts improved by 52.1 ± 0.9 points (P < 0.0001), psychosocial well-being improved by 43.0 ± 1.0 points (P < 0.0001), sexual well-being improved by 38.2 ± 1.2 points (P < 0.0001), and physical well-being improved by 27.9 ± 0.8 points (P < 0.0001). The mean age w...
