I am 18 and am currently a size 8FF(au size) (or 30FF uk sizing). I have struggled with having large breasts for a couple of years and it is particularly worse as i am a dancer. I have been on the birth control pill for about 2.5 years and am planning on staying on this as it helps with my cycle. What i am worried about is if i were to get a reduction would my breasts grow back since I am young and on a hormonal birth control. I cant keep going with my breasts being the size they are.
Answer: Breast reduction will help Hello Charming846391.When we do a breast reduction, we take off part of your breast, which includes fat, and breast gland. The breast gland and fat remaining can always grow back again. For example, if you gain weight or get pregnant and breastfeed. But the amount of breast gland and fat that you have, will be much less than before surgery, so the final breast size will always be less, than if you don´t get a breast reduction.Let me know is you would like more information.

Answer: Reduction Most birth control pills are a low dose and don't increase the size of breasts too much. You can discuss this with your gynecologist to see if there is a type less likely to affect your breasts.

Answer: #breastreduction Hi Charming You should definitely consider a breast reduction which can usually be done with a minimal incision technique. In answer to your question - you will probably need a redo breast reduction in your 50 's or 60's as they will grow again. The biggest breast growth is with changes in your hormonal state - ie pregnancy, breast feeding, and then again in menopause. The OCP by itself usually is not a problem. Regards Damien

Answer: Breast reduction A breast reduction removes both fat and glandular tissue. Birth control may cause some increased breast tissue hypertrophy (increase), it should not cause your breasts to enlarge that much after a breast reduction procedure. Weight gain (rare in a dancer) is the most common culprit for breast enlargement. Best wishes. Dr. T

Answer: Breast reduction Dear Charming846391, breast reduction is best suited for women who wish to decrease the size of their breasts. While there are different techniques used to perform this surgery, I prefer the vertical incision (lollipop pattern) breast reduction technique instead of the anchor scar pattern, which reduces more noticeable scarring than usual. I also use a SAFE liposuction technique to reduce additional fat around the stubborn axilla area and bra line. This way, my patients are achieving beautiful results with minimal incisions which reduces downtime and delivers an overall better breast shape long term.If you are considering breast reduction surgery, you should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and make sure your surgeon understands your goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
