Full 36D Minus 350g Per Breast What Would That Leave Me With? (photo)

I am a full 36D cup breast size and am going for a breast reduction. My surgeon has to take off 350g per breast so my insurance will cover it. I have suffered from very persistent neck and upper back pain for years. I am 21 years old I am 5' tall and weigh 135 pounds. What cup size could I expect to be?

A: Patient is showing a picture of her breasts and asks what size she will be after 350 g reduction. You are describing symptoms that are related to large breasts. You need a significant breast reduction to help your symptoms. There is also the issue of persistence of cosmetic results to consider. The larger the breast is made after a breast reduction the more the chance of recurrence of ptosis ( sagging ) after the surgery. I think you need a bit more than 350 g removed to get a good result and ideally you would want to end up with a c cup.

Is my Right Nipple Ok? 2 Days After Breast Reduction? (PHOTO)

I know it's probably too early to be concerned but I'm worried about my right nipple. The left one seems to be healing fine but my right areola is not a round shape like my left and it's darker plus the nipple seems to be hidden. What is your opinion? I have an appointment with my plastic surgeon in exactly one week. This is my second day after surgery.

A: Is my nipple ok 2 days after surgery? Your nipples look congested and are in danger of becoming necrotic. If that happens you may loose par of the nipple or the entire nipple. Your plastic surgeon can tell you what is happening by examining you and assess the blood flow to your nipples. There are a few things that can be done to save a congested nipple. It is best to discuss these options with your plastic surgeon. It is also important to see him or her immediately.

A: What breast size will I be after a reduction.

It is unfortunate that insurance companies dictate  coverage on the amount of tissue removed and not on the symptoms which are present. Generally patients are reduced to a C cup after surgery, but there is quite a bit of variation.  A 350 gram reduction will most likely achieve a C/D cup on you.  You should discuss your goals with your surgeon.  Some women want to be as small as possible, others want to remain large and full figured so as to remain well proportioned.  good luck.
