Going down approximately one cup size might be able to be done with simple liposuction although there is less control of shape. Depending how much of your concern is size/weight and how muc is shape, treatment options will differ. In general, the more shaping you want, the more scars you will require. Also, you have to consider that going down one cup size may or may not affect your pain and discomfort. The fact that you have a rash indicates that you have enough sagging such that a reduction will require more than simple liposuction. Be sure you have clear goals on what you want to accomplish.
