My breasts are still he same size after breast reduction? (photos)

Congratulations on having undergone breast reduction procedure. At this point, there is significant swelling present.  Give yourself several months before you evaluate the outcome of the procedure performed.  You will find that the breasts will continue to change over the course of the next several months/year. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with

I appreciate your question.

I perform a liposuction breast lift that removes tissue from the areas you don't want such as near the armpit and the lower portion hanging near your stomach. Once I use this to shape the breast I then remove the skin to tighten the breast and create a better shape with nice cleavage. Since I perform this less invasively the recovery time is faster. The size would depend on the proportion with your body versus going for a cup size. It works very well if there are asymmetries. I can also use the removed fat as a natural breast augmentation by grafting the fat back into the breast to create more projection or into the top to create more cleavage. This procedure can also be combined with an implant if needed or wanted.  It should not affect nipple sensation, mammograms, cancer risk or breast-feeding. If you gain or lose weight, the transferred fat can do the same.It takes 6 -12 months to see final results. You are still swollen. 

The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.  Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic plastic surgery.  

Best of luck!

There will still be a lot of swelling and it will take a few months for things to settle. If you had over 500g removed then you should notice a difference when the swelling has settled.
