Is It Possible to Go Down 4 Bra Sizes with a Breast Reduction and is It Safe for a 15 Year Old ?

Im turning 16 next month, 5 feet tall, weigh around 137 pounds and wear a 36H bra. My breasts not only hurt my self confidence, but they also have an affect on my breathing, my activity allowances (can't exercise without wearing 3 sports bras to reduce the pain they cause), my posture, and even the way I look in clothing. Also, where I live, anything over size DD cannot be bought in stores and has to ordered from some other country. I would like to atleast go down to a D/DD.is it possible/safe?
