Second breast reduction - common?

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Can breast tissue grow back after breast reduction?

Is it possible for breast tissue to grow back after a breast reduction? I had it done a couple of years ago and now my breasts look like they're the same size they were before the surgery. I haven't gained any weight or anything either. Is this common? Do I need a revision?

 To need to repeat a breast reduction is very rare and even more rare if you have not gained weight in the interval after the first surgery.
