“From Triple D's to Comfy C's”

I'm in pain. My back, neck, and shoulders hurt. I have been big chested since I was a teenager. Im 44yrs old. I have considered getting a BR for at least 20 years, I tried to get insurance approval years ago, but was told I needed to loose weight first. My PCP didnt even try to help me. In June 2012 I went to Dr. Lou for a free consult. Insurance approved in August 2012,,,Praise God!It has... more

“I Want to Let some parts of me go to...”

I've considered this procedure since I was 14. Started discussing it with my PCP and came close to starting the process through medicaid but our family moved, my dad didn't agree, and by the time I was able to make the decision for myself I was grown with no medical insurance =(. I cried myself to sleep for a week. Now thanks to the "Goldcard" I have the opportunity to get the help I've... more

“Happy with my breast reduction; hit...”

I had my breast reduction 12/05/2012. I have dealt with mid back pain and insomnia for 12 years and have tried therapy many times. I finally decided this year it was time; when my neck required injections and chiropractic care, and I developed hidradenitis(boils) under my right breast. My procedure was about 4hrs long, and 5lbs removed from my chest. I had one drain on each breast, stayed... more

“Tired of the CONSTANT PAIN! -...”

Hello All, I have been trying to find a doctor who has reasonable rates for Breast Reduction surgery. I am not looking for someone with CHEAP rates, just reasonable. I have been denied by my insurance company UHC three times and each doctor that I've seen have deemed the operation MEDICALLY NECESSARY. But they still won't cover it. I'm sooo frustrated. My only other option is to pay out of... more

“An Amazing Experience! - Sugar Land, TX”

I have had large breasts since a teen and have grappled with having a breast reduction for over 15 years. After gaining weight in the past year, my breast size increased significantly and I was very uncomfortable with the body pain, the unwanted attention and being unable to keep a shirt buttoned.

“14 Days and Counting - Houston, TX”

I just want to say I love this site...every possible question I could have came up with has been addressed in one way or another. Unlike most people on here my pain did not become noticeable until the last year or so. It seems as though my large breast popped over night when i was very young.

“Beast Reduction - Sugar Land, TX”

I am 57 year old with large pendulous breasts. Have searched for a reduction surgery that had good lift with as little scar as possible. Dr. Horndeski's technique has reduced excess tissue , raised my breasts back to youthful position with no visible scars and intact nipple sensation. This has been the best decision I ever made. more

“Cautiously Optimistic - Houston, TX”

When I was 14, I remember coming home from riding and crying, because I developed so fast that I couldn't stay up in jumping position over the jumps anymore. I am now almost 26, and it has only gotten worse. Right now I am size 34G, and I have pretty constant bad back, neck and shoulder pain and migraines. I'm sure this is sounding pretty familiar to everyone here. I went through... more

“Amazing Dr - Houston, TX”

I had a breast reduction about 4 or 5 months ago I was a 38 H and now im a 38 DD and i love it. I had very bad back problems and thank god i found a very good and caring surgeon. Dr Cortes did a very amazing job i was scared at first but they look very good. more

“5-star rating - Sugar Land, TX”

There are NO cons to this procedure. The pros are the end result is higher, perkier and firmer breasts. Another pro is immediate relief of neck, shoulder and back pain. My advice to those considering it is to LOOK at all the other results out there. The verticle or anchor scar is ugly. The breasts are bottom heavy and they are not as high on the chest wall as Dr. Horndeski's results.... more

“Back Pain, Back Pain, Pinched Nerves...”

I am 5'2 and 145pds. 33yrs old. Estimated breast size 34f. Even though my breast are quite large, I do love them, but they are causing me pain. Lower and upper back pain (arthritis), muscle spasms of the neck and pinched nerves. Still in physical therapy and on and off of meds. Flexiril, Predisone and anthrotec, nothings working anymore. My current insurance is Tricare and I'm in the... more

“Best Breast Reduction Doc in the...”

When I saw all his before and after pictures in the office. I was sold! I scheduled my 'Ultimate Lift' reduction that same day. I was amazed at my results! I was a 48DDD and now I'm a perky 46D! I'm a big girl, so I didn't want to be too small. He made sure the size of my new breasts were appropriate for my body size. I never imagined results like this were... more

“Best breasts ever! - Sugar Land, TX”

My breasts were so large I was not comfortable. I had neck, back and shoulder pain all the time, I was never able to find a bra to fit properly and was always stooped over. I did my procedure while on break from school and when I went back you could immediately tell a difference. All my friends were so happy for me and I feel SO much better now!!! more

“Be Patient...It's Definitely Worth...”

I had my surgery on March, 28th 2011, and like most people I was extremely nervous. I kept asking myself if this was going to be the best decision for me. Even on the morning of the surgery I was little skeptical, but went with it because I knew how miserable I felt with my large breasts. The first few days after surgery are the hardest. You will feel sore, tired, uncomfortable, and just... more
