- 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.

August 21st we got there about 11:30 and it was a whirlwind of activity. Lots of people asking me questions, the iv in my hand, marking me with a sharpie...it just went real fast and I didn't have time to think on it too much and panic. The anesthesiologist came in and put something in my iv and I remember smiling at this strange man staring inches from my face and saying it must be working because I can't stop this stupid smile on my face and that is all I remember! Next thing I am waking up in recovery and a bunch of people are moving me to a new bed. I spent the night at the hospital and it was really just a blur of waking up to get medicated and take vitals and falling back asleep. The next morning the doctor tried to take my drains out and the pain was so bad that I was screaming and moaning in pain.My breasts were so super sensitive. Needless to say he left them in a few more days, though it would have felt better to have it done then in the bigger picture.
August 24th. Today I had the drains removed and washed my hair for the first time. I will say I guess I am one of those ladies in a lot of pain versus those who take tylenol the second day and don't look back. I'm getting older though so I attribute some of it to age and dealing with chronic illness before this procedure. I am till in pain but managing it well with the meds and not much activity to aggregate things. I've been taking the arnica Montana and I don't think I m swelling very much, but there is a lot of bruising from the lipo. My nipples are flattened right now but they assure me they will pop out eventually. Overall I am very very pleased with my results. I can't believeI am still as big as I am after they took so mumuch out. I have felt immediate relief from the constant neck and back pulling them boobies were causing so much trouble. They took about 4 1/2 pounds total of breast tissue. I'm currently wearing a did sports bra and think my size will be a strong c when I am all healed. i will add new pics as I progress.

I started taking my arnica montana today and am trying to stay hydrated. I quit taking anything that might cause bleeding or healing issues weeks ago because after my hysterectomy I had hematomas that caused my entire incision to open up. It took four months to close it and there was a lot of pain with packing the wound and debriding (where they cut and scrape away any non pink tissue). This time I am more aware of these things and my biggest fear is opening back up. The anesthesia or operation is not really worrying me, just the "what ifs" post-op. Two days to go!

I have thought about having a breast reduction for years, but that was all it was really, just a thought. Anytime my back or neck moaned at me, anytime a shirt or bra would not fit, anytime I wanted to be active and felt my heavy chest pulling me down...then I would think yeah that would be nice! I am 44 and have been "thinking" about it for at least 10-12 Years. This year things changed though. This year all the neck and shoulder pain became more noticeable, intolerable. The back pain excruciating. Time for change is now. Why suffer needlessly when something so life changing is just a call away?
I'm currently wearing a 38DDD which is a little small. Like many of you ladies I squeeze em down and refuse to go up a size again. My breasts are very very dense. PS says he wants to take 900 out of each breast (maybe too much?) I'm hoping to be C cup when it is over.
Personally, I'm tired of all the pain and the loss of mobility.The bras digging into my rib cage and causing rashes. The grooves where my straps have dug into my flesh trying to support this burden just ache all the time.
I hurt my back this year pretty bad. I did ten weeks physical therapy, had two xrays and a bone density scan. I have nerve damage and degenerative disc damage which they attribute to years of carrying this chest weight. I also have osteopenia since my hysterectomy. My spine is curving from the poor posture caused by my breasts pulling me forward hunched. I had three doctors recommend me for this surgery. After my consult I was still sure my insurance would say no. They didn't (yippie!)
I wish I had done this years ago, maybe I could have prevented a lot of pain and damage, but it is not too late yet. I'm going in August 21st. Wish me luck! I will post before and after pics soon.
Best Wishes Ladies!
