I'm 5'3 19 Years Old and 130 Lbs and a 34DD I Really Want a Reduction, but I Have Some Worries Procedure? (photo)

First of all I live in BC, but I have heard about many women going to the US for plastic surgery. Why is this? Is it better? How do I find the best surgeon? In BC, AB or even AZ. How is the procedure usually done? Would I need a 'lollipop' incision? I have really terrible back problems, and even wearing a bathing suit is quite painful, will this truly help? I have tried everything to minimize them and even recently lost fifteen pounds but even since seventh grade I have worn a 32E or 34DD.

By removing “excess” breast tissue, adipose tissue, and breast skin this operation reduces and lifts the breasts to a higher position on the chest wall. By doing so, patients often find... more
