I am 4 days post op from a breast reduction and I want to change providers. I regret ever having the surgery. Is this possible to change at this point?
Answer: These feelings are normal, but it is possible to get a second opinion if you’d like. So sorry to hear you’re feeling a bit regretful of your breast reduction surgery. Please know that feeling a little down after any major procedure can be a very normal part of the healing process. At just 4 days post-op, you’re also not anywhere close to seeing your final results. If this is what’s bothering you, you might try to work with your original plastic surgeon through your recovery. However, if you truly feel that you would like to get a second opinion, you could try asking your current plastic surgeon for a referral, or seek another opinion on your own. Best of luck, and I hope you start feeling better about your decision!

Answer: Anything is Possible It is certainly possible to get a second opinion on your surgery. Remember, though, that you are only 4 days out from the operation. There were no specifics in your question about why you are regretting the operation, but it is possible that your surgeon may be able to talk you through the process and figure out the best possible solution with you. I would advise contacting him/her first before getting another opinion.
