Is Breast Reduction a Good Idea for Me?

I'm 17, 5'2, 108lbs and wear a 30E/DDD. My breasts have caused me extreme discomfort and very poor self esteem. I am also a very serious ballet student, and they make everything so much more difficult and sometimes painful. Would I be a good candidate for breast reduction? Also, would it be possible to aim for an A cup? I have pretty small ribcage and a very short torso and I know you can't really guarantee anything but I think an A would be most proportionate.

It sounds like you are likely a very good candidate for breast reduction surgery.  There are limits to how small you can and should go based on blood supply and aesthetics.  I would assume an A cup would be pushing it.  If you like the shape of your breasts you may be a candidate for liposuction of the breast which would have basically no scars.

I'm 17 Years Old. Can I Go from a DD to a B?

I'm a size zero pants size, I'm 5"1, but I feel like my breast are way too large for my body and I get too much negative attention. The bra straps absolutely kill my shoulders and leave ugly marks and my back sometimes hurt. It's absolute hell. My parents want me to get a reduction also. Is it possible to go to a DD to a B with it looking natural after? Also is it possible to go from a DD to an A? And lastly, Can I get surgery at my age? Thank you

A: Breast reduction in a 17 year old

Answer:  At 17 years of age, you are certainly not too young for a breast reduction.  A technique that maximizes your ability to breast feed in the future should be used.  It is possible to go from a DD to a B cup, depending on the shape of your breasts and the width of your chest.  I would not recommend going to a small B or A cup, however. You may have regrets later in life.  A proportionate size for your frame is what I would recommend.

Insurance Company Requesting a Total of 2000g Removed from my Breast - What Size Will I Be?

I am 5'8-200 lbs, breast size 36-38 E/F(according to Fredricks of Hollywood). The IC is requiring 1000 grams to be removed from each side. By the pic I've posted, what size do u think I will be after surgery? Do u think that the 2000 grams is to much and will leave me smaller than a full C. I've heard some people have more skin then tissue/fat(BALL IN SOCK EFFECT). In your experience, if there is not ENOUGH TO BE REMOVED will the IC still pay , giventhe fact that you can't get what u don't have?

A: Surprise Size...

I agree that it is impossible to precisely predict your ultimate cup size after removal of this volume of tissue.  After an evaluation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, he or she should be able to tell you whether removal of that volume will leave you smaller than you desire.

Ultimately, you want the decision of how much tissue to remove left up to your surgeon.

Bill Adams, MD; John Tebbetts, MD and many other excellent plastic surgeons in Dallas can help you with these questions the best.
