Breast Lipo FOr 19 Y/O With 28JJ Breasts?

I'm a 19 year old with 28jj breasts. I put on weight a few years ago which led to this big size. I have always had bigger breasts than my peers but upon gaining weigh it shot up from 28e whichi was ok with to 28jj. I have lost some weight and have reduced 2 cups.
