Breast Still too Large After Breast Reduction, What are my Options??
I posted before, but I have added some images, this time. I had a breast reduction about 4 months ago. prior to surgery i was a 32DDD Now I'm a 32 D almost DD. i asked to be a B/C. I think I'm still too large. i have heard about breast Liposuction but will this work after you have already had a reduction? if so will it make my breast saggy? My new breast have a great shape and have been lifted, but are still heavy and large. I just dont think enough was removed. Please give feedback. Thanks.

Post breast reduction size
The result looks excellent. It looks proportional although you haven't provided height and weight information. Bra sizing is so variable (and I am informed that Victoria's Secret, in particular, sizes very small) that I would not get hung up on the sizing but focus on the result. Reoperation is always an option but I would suggest that you try to live with this a little lnger. Liposuction would, in my opinion, change the shape of the breasts and make them appear saggy.

Breast Reduction Results Too Large.
Thank you for the question and pictures.
Since you're only 4 months out of your surgery I would suggest allowing more time for the breasts to take their final shape and size before making any decisions regarding further surgery. At that point, if you still think you are too large then I think the only good option is to surgically remove more tissue (further breast reduction). Given that your original surgeon has done a very nice job for you I would continue follow-up with...

Feels that is still too large following a breast reduction 4 months ago
Thanks for the photos. You have an excellent result with regard to configuration and other important issues associated with breast reduction surgery. The size issue is one that you can best answer based on your own desires. Clearly you are not massive. Still, if you want to go smaller, this can be done though it may not be worth the associated risks including effects on overall shape. Furthermore, this "revision" may not be covered by your insurance company.

Cup Size after Breast Reduction
It is difficult to predict an exact cup size after breast reduction surgery. Many patients present to my office for breast reduction claiming to be a particular cup size but in fact are probably much larger and don`t want to admit it. After surgery, it is not unusual for these patients to end up smaller but still a D cup!
I would agree that , your surgeon provided you with a very nice shape. Breast reduction with liposuction is possible in some cases but...

Breast reduction is sculpting
Your surgeon did a beautiful job for you and should be commended for this work. You have excellent shape and symmetry and a size that is proportionate to your frame. Over time as you mature they will shrink as long as your weight remains stable. It is not possible to get a specific cup size and rarely would it be possible to go from a DDD to a B/C anyway without damaging you. Lipo could make you saggy but re-doing the entire operation is no small thing. Best to...
