My Breast Size is 36L. Can I Get to a C or Small D Cup? (photo)
I want to have a breast reduction. I want a drastic change and would like to go down to a full C or small D. Is that a realistic size? Also because of the size of my breasts should I think about a breast lift too.

Breast Reduction Surgery Goals
Your goal of a C or D cup may be possible but the ultimate goal should be a breast size that fits your frame and relief of any neck and back pain. The final breast can be "whatever" it proportion and relieve of symptoms that are important outcomes with breast reduction surgery with a case like yours.
Best wishes.

Breast reduction and bra cup size
Breast reduction patients are some of our happiest patients. Not only are they pleased with the appearance (lifted and smaller breasts) but they are also able to participate in more physical activities without being encumbered by the size of their chests. From your photo, you look like an excellent candidate for breast reduction. A breast reduction will provide a lift while reducing the volume of your breasts. In terms of size, it is difficult to guarantee a cup size....

Forget about cup size! You must be suffering so dreadfully that a good proportionate reduction mammaplasty (breast reduction includes lift as part of the procedure) will offer significant and welcome relief with improved comfort and normalization of your lifestyle. You'll probably still be D or DD, but find a good plastic surgeon and you'll have both pain relief and nice breast shape, proportionate to your body. May need to lose weight for cup size to drop further.

Breast reduction
A breast reduction on extremely large breasts may not get you to a "C" cup. a lift will be done at the same time.

Breast reduction usually includes a lift
Thank you for your question. It is possible to dramatically reduce breast size even in very large breasts, and a lift is part of the procedure.
In your case most likely a free nipple graft procedure would be used, which would give complete control over breast shape and size.
Best wishes for a successful outcome!

Breast reduction
You will get a breast lift when you have a reduction. As far as size is concerned, you should be able to get to any size you want, but that should be discussed when you see a Plastic Surgeon.
Good luck.

Breast reduction size
Thanks for your question. After reviewing your photo you have very large breasts much bigger than the usual reduction. If you are planning to maintain sensitivity then the nipple areolar complex needs to be attached to an underlying breast tissue. The breast tissue has to be large enough to provide adequate blood supply to keep the areolar alive. If you reduce these large breast too much then there is a chance the amount of tissue after reduction may not be sufficient...

Breast Reduction to Very Small Size Possible?
Thank you for the question and pictures.
You certainly will do well with breast reduction surgery; just for clarification, you should be aware that your breasts will be “lifted” during the breast reduction procedure. In other words, the breast lift procedure will "happen” during the breast reduction procedure.
Yes, it is possible to reduce breast size very significantly.With the goal of improving communication with my patients I find the use of photographs of...
