Scarless Breast Reduction with Body Lipo 10/18/211 - Massachusetts

I went to see a local PS. I know this man personally so it was a very easy choice after a very open conversation. he still would like to do a lift but I told him I am not willing to get naked for him again. this is my choice and I am happy with my natural look and No scars.

I was feeling better after a week, and returned to work then. the swelling lasted 8 weeks with the first 6 by far the most uncomfortable. the swelling took a good 6 months to go down. 8 months out now and feel like I sell before my period but daily no issues at all. I am sure I have said it before, I have fatty breast so this was a good option for me.

I do want women to know and understand this is not an instant fix, the healing is different (from what I have read) from traditional BR. the advantage (good or bad) is you can still have traditional BR after for maybe a better result than from TBR alone because you start with a smaller breast.

Anyway, i really am happy, this really was a good option for me. it is not for everyone and I will admit, not every doctor is comfortable doing this, maybe because so many of them are trying to give patients an ideal body. I really felt like my Dr understood exactly what I wanted and my expectations were nothing more than a smaller breast to be much more comfortable and proportionate to my body size.

I finally went bra shopping, I bought a bra at Gap Body (NEVER would I have been able to buy there before) I bought a 34D, my "better" chantelle bra is a 32C.

I know I I am one of the very few that have openly talked out having this, I am happy and I am also VERY realistic.

I hope this helps, looking back on my previous posts, it looks like 2 months for most of the discomfort to go away, 4-6 months for the better part of the swelling 6-8 months only swelling prior to my period.

Iowa71, I know you must still be out of it, but how did it go yesterday?

I will try and compare apples to apples. My favorite bra was a 34 DD, a Chantelle Minimizer. I wore this bra after surgery when I could finally get a bra on, (think an hour at a time) I bought a 32 C in that same bra after surgery and it is now too big in the back. IF I could get my ideal in this bra it most likely would be a 30D.
IF I go to a TJ maxx and want to buy a bra the 34 band is the right band in most less expensive brands. and I would have to say the D is too big and the C is too small. I currently have 3 bras. one fits and the other 2 are not good fits.

So I don't know what size I am. I had 600CC's removed from each breast and they are smaller, I just have not found my right fit yet.

Good luck tomorrow, all will work out fine, just know that the reduction this time won't come for weeks, but I hope you get everything you want.

thanks, and good luck to you. Funny, I would have been happy being an A after all these years of big breasts. I hope your follow up give you the C you wanted, it isn't so bad.

I am 5 months out from surgery and I can't tell you how happy I am. I did have a lot removed and the first 2 months were not comfortable. I would liken it to being a nursing mom with mastitis. that aside, knowing exactly what was going on, i dealt with it.
So 5 months out I am someplace between a c and a D, the cheaper the bra the bigger i have to go and I am not thinking if I had worn cheap bras before I may have easily been a DDD.
YES, my breast are not "perky" they do sit where they should as a lot of the weight is gone from them and they look like a natural breast with no scars.
Like I said, I could,t be happier, this was the right choice for me, I feel like my breasts fit my frame better and cloths fit better too.
I hope you ladies are doing well, and have found the answers and doctors you were looking for. IF you have done this surgery I would love to hear how you are doing.
