I feel disgusted and embarrassed with this horrible body as I'm only nearly 17 and my sagging stage is a considerably great. I've been on the 007b website and my case is even more severe than people that have breast fed! I'm also want to lose weight desperately but only assume that it will make my issue worse, therefore I feel even more restricted with having a body I feel confident in. What options do I have with this depressing issue? Attached a very similar photo to my condition. Many thanks.

Answer: Breast reduction at 16 Hi there and thanks for you question.It is important for you to understand that this is not an uncommon situation at all. Heavy breasts can be quite debilitating for young women like yourself and can result in not only physical limitations but can have an emotional impact as well. As I understand it, that is not actually your photo, but someone who is similar to yourself.There would be two comments I would make about the photo you have presented.1. The person in the image does NOT need to lose any weight2. You would most certainly benefit from a breast reduction.There are some additional things for you to consider given your age such as breast feeding and changes in your breasts as you get older but in brief a breast reduction is likely to be significantly beneficial to you.I suggest making an appointment to see a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss this further. Given your age, it would be ideal if you could bring a parent or adult along with you to the consultation.All the bestRichard

Answer: Breast reduction Thanks so much for your thoughtful questionbased on your concerns and photos you would certainly be a candidate for a conversation about breast reduction in my practice. When thinking about a reduction it's very important to talk to your surgeon about the potential impact on breast-feeding, the changes in the size and shape of the breast with growth pregnancy and breast-feeding. It is also important to know that changes in the sensation of the nipples can occur after any breast surgery which can be a significant event for many womeN. However even with those considerations in mind and appropriately trained and credentialed surgeon should be able to have a thoughtful discussion with you about reducing the overall heaviness of the breasts and lifting the remaining breast tissue to achieve your goals.
