Answer: Breast Reduction in Teenagers There is no absolute age for breast reduction. If the breasts are causing you physical and emotional problems then a breast reduction may be the best option for you.

Answer: Considerations for Breast Reduction for those under 21 If you are 19 years old and your breasts are still growing then if possible you should wait until they are no longer growing for the most predictable results. Existing breast tissue can become larger after a breast reduction even if you haven't gain weight. A few of the more common reasons (besides weight gain) are use of hormones like birth control pills (even changing types) or others at the time of menopause, endocrinological problems, further normal growth if the first procedure was done at an early age, pregnancy related, and in many cases unexplained reasons. A secondary breast reduction can be performed once the cause is understood.

Answer: Is 19 years old too young to get a breast reduction? Thank you for the question. At some point, you may be an excellent candidate for breast reduction surgery. Generally speaking, the “ideal” patient for breast reduction surgery is one who presents with relatively large breasts in proportion to the remainder of her torso. These patients often present with neck, back, shoulder discomfort, bra strap grooving, postural changes, and occasionally with rashes/infections. This operation tends to be one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform.

Answer: Breast reduction at 19 years Breast reduction can be a life changing experience in terms of resolving your symptoms of pain, discomfort and embarrassment as well as elevating your self esteem. I have performed breast reduction on girls at your age or younger with great success. I would usually like to be satisfied that your breasts are no longer growing and haven't increased in cup size for around 12 months. A surgical consultation would be in your first step in determining whether or not you are an ideal candidate for surgery.
