After having suffered for years with the pain of pendulous breasts - the back pain, the strap grooves worn in my shoulders, the skin problems - I decided to undergo a breast reduction.

“Breast Reduction Changed My...”

I had always had a large chest, but my breasts grew even larger after I gained a lot of weight. After losing over 80 pounds, I decided to get the breast reduction as a reward and it's the second best thing (after losing weight) that I could have done for myself. No more shoulder pain, gigantic, ugly bras, back pain, stares from strangers and having to wear a much larger top than bottom. In a... more

“Breast Reduction With Dr. Timothy...”

I was in need of a breast reduction for more than 22 years. As a child I was teased by boys and hated by girls. I was too scared to do anything cosmetically. Fast forward many years....after having two children and gaining 135 pounds then losing the weight, my breasts were in terrible shape. My back hurt and I could not find any bras to help me. I finally decided to see a cosmetic surgeon. The... more

“Weight Off My Shoulders! - Reston, VA”

My sisters and I were all "gifted" with overly large breasts for our proportions from my mother, so it seemed we were all destined to take the path of breast reduction eventually. Earlier this year I was leaving an appointment and passed Dr. Roberta Gartside's office and stopped in for informational on breast reduction. Within two months, I had a consultation and the surgery scheduled June 20;... more

I had my BR on May 25th and I have absolutely no regrets. I had about 6lbs removed (I forgot to get the exact grams) and I definitely feel much lighter...immediately after the surgery.
