As you seem to be well aware, breast reduction is an operation that can have great benefits for women of all ages. I have performed breast reductions on women in the mid to late 60s and the the first thing they say post-op is that they wished they had done it a long time ago. In your case your height and weight are appropriate so you have what is referred to as virginal macromastia. As long as you have a clear understanding of the surgery to include not only the short but longterm effects, you would probably be a great candidate.
I would recommend you make an appointment with a board-certified plastic surgeon where they will be able to go over your exam and clearly explain where incisions and scars will be, what the recovery should be like, etc. I encourage my patients to write down questions you may have and bring them with you so you can be as well-informed as possible. I hope this helps.
