My recommendation is to wait 6 months after the completion of breastfeeding. This will give your breasts enough time to shrink back down to their normal size. I also recommend you get to your ideal weight before planning a breast reduction surgery to achieve the best outcome. Best wishes.

Velashape is unlikely to be able to sufficently reduce your breast size from a DDD to a D. Furthermore, I am not aware of a study which has evaluated the effects of this treatment on the breast and the possible complications or difficulties in interpreting mammograms or MRIs.
