I am 5'2" and 110 lbs, 28 yrs old and i had a breast reduction at age 16. I was a 32H and was reduced to a large 32C. Since then i have been on 1 kind of birth control pill from 2017-2019, had a pregnancy that ended in a miscarriage near the end of the first trimester. My weight has fluctuated between 102-115 during this time and from 2016-2021 my breast size remained constant. In 2022 I grew and now im a 32F. Would there be any reason why? And what are the risks with a 2nd one?

Answer: Breast reduction Hello Cinnabon5264. The most common cause of breast growth after pregnancy if weight gain. So if you have gained weight, loosing it again will help but sometimes the breasts don't reduce to the previous size. Having a 2nd reduction gas the same risks, we just have to make sure the blood supply to the nipple and areola is preserved. The size of the reduction and the mivilization of the nipple and areola are the most important factors. If you would like more information let me know Thanks

Answer: Second reduction Dear Cinnabon5264, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, revision surgery has a higher risk of complications. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
