You can't have all that you want

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Disproportionately small breasts during reduction?

If I want a disproportionately small breasts, will a doctor be willing to do this type of Breast reduction procedure? Why or why not? I don't want just a form to suit what society thinks my body should look like; I want something around an A or small B cup. I am currently somewhere around a 44 F. I want to be as flat as possible without nipple grafting, but still be able to breastfeed.

It would be possible to get you to a very small cup size, but almost certainly not without a free nipple graft if you are a size F right now.   Even without a nipple graft, going down that far would likely eliminate breast feeding options.  So be careful if you meet a doctor who says you can have all of these things without problems, either they aren't telling the truth or they are very inexperienced.
