Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.      
How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I typed my “story” and then decided who wants...

I typed my “story” and then decided who wants to read a novel... you want a snapshot, so here it is...

Age 13 – Size 34DD, 6 Jeans; started getting headaches, hated running, embarrassed to wear swim suits, nicknames like double bubble… ugh!
Age 19 – Size 34F/G, 6 Jeans; migraines, neck/back/shoulder pain (tried yoga, personal trainer, supportive ugly bras, eye doctor for headaches, NSAIDS)
Age 31 – Size 36H, 10/12 Jeans; migraines (on 2 preventatives, pain relievers, treated for 2+ yrs), neck/back/shoulder pain, MRI, neck xray, physical therapy (3 months), buying $100+ bras from Nordstrom.

Large breasts run in my family. My sister had a reduction a couple years ago and it was the best thing she ever did. Between her and my husband I worked up the strength to go for a consultation, enough is enough… here is my timeline so far:

1/31 – Consultation (measurements, pictures, medical records)
3/2 – Insurance Approval (Aetna)
3/12 – Appointments Scheduled
4/1 – Pre-op
4/28 – SURGERY DAY (Outpatient)
5/6 – Post-op
5/27 - Tentative back to work day

I am SO EXCITED, I cannot wait. I have been approved by my immediate supervisor to take the month of May off and am waiting for FMLA and STD to confirm approval and I will be all set (I should mention I have already met my deductible, so there should be $0 out of pocket for my BR). I am sure my excitement will switch to nerves as I get closer to the big day and think about my hubby and two children, but I fully trust my surgeon. I dream of tiny B or C cups, but I know a D is more realistic. My surgeon knows I want him to make me as small as he can safely do and maintain my health and wellness. Can’t wait! Cheers to smaller boobs!

Before Photos

I struggle with posting photos here, but I know they helped me a lot in my decision. So... here it goes.

Anxiety, Likes, Dislikes, Questions…

My pre-op is still almost two weeks away, but I am starting to have increasing anxiety and after tabbing through pages upon pages of before and after photos I have a long list of likes, dislikes, wants and “OMG I hope that doesn’t happen to me” lists and many questions for my doctor… here is what I have:
I do NOT want boxy or football shaped breasts.
I really want to wake up with less fullness on the outside of my breast, near my armpit, my breasts are so wide and I hate it.
I do NOT want dog ears or pursed scars; why does that happen?
Why do some women get holes, blackened areolas or skin the separates from their scars? Is this the surgeon, the patient or just random… how can this be prevented?
I do not want my nipples to be uneven or point down or to the side. Slightly up would be okay, makes them look perkier.
If I wake up and still have huge breasts, anything larger than a small D I might cry.

What types of questions did you ask your surgeon or directions and preferences did you share with him/her?
