I had my first reduction about a year ago when I was 20. My chest had been at a 34 DDD for 3 years at that point with no variation, so I thought they had stopped fully growing. I had a "T" breast reduction and went down to a full C. However, not even six months after my surgery my breasts started to grow back.
