Breast Implants to improve too small of a reduction

Barry E. DiBernardo, MD answers: Breast implants for C cup breasts after reduction?

I am 5'2, 115 lbs, and 21 years old. I have huge 34DD breasts. I am very active and enjoy staying fit, although it's difficult for me to be able to do all the things I enjoy because of back problems. I got approval from the insurance company to get a breast reduction, but they have requirements on how much they will need to reduce. They want to make me into a small or medium B cup. I won't like my body too much if I went from DD to small B, so I'm wondering if it's possible to get  breast implants after my reduction to have medium or large C cup breasts?

Yes, a certain amount of tissue may need to be removed, but it can be skillfully shaped at the same time. If in the event , they are too flat, Implants later are possible. Please discuss these options with your surgeon before undertaking the procedure
