Am I a good candidate for breast reduction?

Anyone who is symptomatic from their large breasts or is simply unhappy with their appearance is a candidate for breast reduction. Insurance only pays for surgery when it is functional/medically related, i.e. having symptoms of back/neck pain, painful bra strap shoulder grooves, or skin rashes under the breasts. Insurance companies are more likely going to pay for a breast reduction surgery when the prospective patient has seen their primary care doctor with complaints of pain and discomfort, and/or she has seen a chiropractor for neck and back pain. 'Required' weights of breast tissue excised during the surgery are dependent on the weight of the patient, so the smaller your body is relative to your breasts, the less weight the insurance companies expect to be removed.

Thank you for your question and pictures. Yes you appear to be a good candidate for a breast reduction likely down to a B or C and along with the reduction would be a lift so your breasts would sit higher on your chest. Be sure to see a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon for your consultation.
