“Finally Happening - Palos Heights, IL”

“Best Decision I Ever Made - Chicago, IL”

After suffering from chronic back pain for two years and going through months of physical therapy, I'd had enough. I knew I wanted to have my surgery at Northwestern, but I wasn't sure of which doctor. I compared before and after photos of different surgeons before deciding Dr. Mustoe's were the best and booked my consult. Dr. Mustoe and his team worked with me to get insurance approval. He... more

“Boobegone - Chicago, IL”

Just scheduled BR approved by insurance. I'm 51 years old 5'8" and 160lbs. I currently wear a 34 DD/E. i hope to go to a non saggy, well anything non saggy would be great. My PS told me about 300 grams from each side. Not sure what this equates to in bra size but have to trust the doc. This is my first post and could use all the support I can get. I'm petrified. I need to quit smoking on... more

“BuxomAvenger...The Adventures of a...”

Hooray!!! I just got my approval by mail yesterday. I just turned 21 and am currently between a 42I and a 42J but am wearing a 42H(yes, am muffining, but I also wear these spandexy camis meant to slim the tummy but work like low impact corsets). For starters, puberty fell on my body like a sack of bricks when I was 11, everything started filling out, and by the time I was 13 I could use... more

“36GG - Cant wait, BUT still a...”

I hit puberty at 11 and was one of the first girls to get larger breasts. I was always tramautized by a comment a boy made about them (he got the first sexual harrassment detention at my jr. high for making the comment to me. I cried in high school when I had to get a D bra - still remember where I was in the store. I got diagnosed with Crohns disease when I was 22, I have always been curvy... more

“Perfect - Chicago, IL”

I was lucky enough to have Dr. Mustoe perform a breast reduction and lift for me. I continue to be in awe of what he was able to accomplish, as the results have changed my life. Everything that I’d asked for, he found a way to achieve. The aesthetic judgment he used during my surgery resulted in size, shape and placement that I am proud of. Feeling like this is a dream come true and I have... more

“BR - The Real Life Experience of a...”

I was just approved by my insurance company last week. The approval process was long and very frustrating. After being denied after my first request, I persisted, and the denial was overturned. I'm still waiting for written confirmation, and I look forward to making my next appointment. Now that it is more "real" - I have feelings of excitement and nerves. I have two small children, and I... more

“Waiting Since High School! -...”

I'm 4 days from my Breast Reduction surgery and I have found amazing peace and support from the sisterhoood at Real Self. Thank you to all that have come before me in posting your honest and real stories! I am 36 DDD/E and hoping for a C. I haven't been a C since grade school. I'd love any last minute words of encouragement that anyone has to offer. I'm scared but probably just the same as all... more

“One month post op - Chicago”

Of course, I developed early. Immediately being labeled as the girl with the big boobs. As I grew, and they grew, the words used to describe me became more vulgar and insulting. I became less and less of a person in others eyes and more of a set of boobs. Back problems followed suit. I have pain all over my back after leaving over just to pick something up off of the floor. Doing the... more

“4.5 months Post-Op”

I have been large chested since the beginning of puberty. During high school it didn't seem so bad, then in college I realized that they were such a pain (pun intended!) I got marred and had children soon after college so I just dealt with them because I figured I didn't really have time to take out time for me. My children are now almost 8 and 6 and I finally feel ready. I consulted with my... more

“Two months post op-Glen Ellyn Illinois”

I started this process of getting a breast reduction surgery approved by my insurance, BCBS. I met with four plastic surgeons in the last 2 weeks of October, and eliminated two right away. I had the other two PS submit claims and go from there. I have a preferred PS of course. I am waiting to see if my insurance approves me. I am thinking about the end of February to the beginning of March for... more

“Ready to Get Rid of This Dead...”

Hello all- I've been lurking for a couple months and want to say this is an amazing site with an awesome community. I'm like most of you - I never had a "small" phase or at least one I can remember. I've always been larger than a D and have been flirting with 32G/34F for several years now...although I'm sure I was wearing the wrong size for years - just trying to squeeze into sizes that... more

“Best Idea I Ever Had - Des Plaines, IL”

I have had so many compliments and friends have asked if i lost weight or what i did since i look so much younger and thinner. i recommended dr m to several friends. it has been hot this summer and i really notice that i can wear little nothing bras and the ones like little undershirts. i am so much more comfortable. i feel so much better about myself. i cant wait for my high school reunion. i... more

“17 Year Old, 5'1, 102 Lbs 30FF to...”

I am small framed. My rib cage is 26 inches and my waist is 23 inches. I was a 30FF. I got looks from older men because of my large breasts. When I was 11, an 18 year old thought I was his age. My back hurt all the time which made my head hurt. I was in pain. They were quite big but saggy. Without a bra, they hung around the bottom of my rib cage. I was tiny but with huge boobs and they put me... more

“Excited and Nervous - Hinsdale, IL”

I have been reading the posts here for a while. I have my surgery planned for Aug 7th and am very excited but nervous too. I have received approval from my insurance company. Some of the concerns I have are about returning to work in 2 weeks, those of you that have had it done...do you think this is doable? Also I see details about the Ahh bra and genie bra..how do you know what bra... more

“Operation Bye Bye Boobies Has Begun!...”

I am a 25 year old young woman who has always had large breasts. In high school I was a C-D cup and now I am a 32F (wearing a 36DDD because it's the closest size I can buy at the store that fits halfway okay). It is almost impossible to find bras that fit my tiny frame and large boobies! I've gained almost 30 pounds in the last year due to my boobs being so heavy that it's extremely... more

“Timing? - Chicago, IL”

I'm getting married at the very end of August. If possible I'd like to have the surgery before the wedding but don't know if that is cutting it too close. Would 2.5 months be enough to feel ok? I really want/need the surgery due to terrible neck pain and headaches and I also don't want to look huge in my wedding photos and get a reduction right after! Thoughts? I'm 5'2 and a 38DDD. 26 years... more

“Wow Can't Believe I'm Finally Gonna...”

To finally rid myself of the emotional and physical discomfort these things have caused since the day they came in!I have hated my boobs pretty much since the day I noticed they were bigger than most girls my age (about 7th grade). I have wanted a reduction pretty much since then as well. I am now 24 and have a 2 year old, and let me tell you having a child does not help in the boob department... more

“No regrets at all thus far....”

I'm 28 years old, 5'4" and 150 lbs... but I'm size 4-6 on bottom and a 38F or 40DDD on top. Boo.... I finally got the guts to go to a PS and get my issues talked about and get in to get it approved for this summer. This is the craziest and hardest decision that I've ever made. How can you decide if this really is right for you to do. I was telling my mom today that I... more

“Good-bye, Bras That Look Like Tank...”

I am 5’8, 150lbs. I’ve been the same height and had the same body figure for the last 10 years. At 17 years old, I was a C/D cup and was pretty content with this size. Although I already had stretch marks, I was still able to comfortably wear clothes without worrying how my chest looks. Even strapless bras. As the years went by, whatever weight I had gained went straight to my... more

“New to This... Just Had a Reduction...”

Let me start off by saying this is the best thing that has possibly happened to me besides the birth of my daughter. I'm 22 yrs old, I stand about 5'4 weighing 148. I have had big boobs since I started teething, lbs. Being big breasted has always been a challenge. Even though I am an attractive young lady I feel that I attract guys for the wrong reason, my large unwanted twins.... more

“Going in for First Consultation -...”

Okay, a little about myself, I'm 21, a nursing student and have always had big boobs but recently I had a child and my blind grew huge. I believe during that time I was an E cup. A year later, they've gone done but I am now a 44DD,maybe bigger than that because my boobs still fall out if my bras. I wouldn't even considere doing something so drastic but my back,neck, and... more
