Thank you for a wonderful site. I'm a 41 year old mother of 3. I've had huge breasts since. Grade 10. I ve considered sugery for a very long time, but I did nt have the guts to do it. I'm a size 36E. It is difficult to get approval from medical aid scheme in South Africa. I was declined in 2012 but now I got approval. I'm scheduled for opp on the 26th of MARCH I can't wait any longer. You gave me courage.I will update you.

Good luck and please do not worry. You will be fine and it's the greatest thing I could have ever done. I only wish I had done the surgery years ago. I'm 5 days post op and feel so great and much lighter! Sending good thoughts and wishes to you in South Africa from San Diego, CA.

Congrats on the approval, the waiting period before surgery can be tough, but before you know it you're waking up to your new smaller breasts :)
