Hi, I'm 10 weeks post BR with a vertical incision. I requested to go down to a 30 B/C from 30 DDD but I'm currently a 30D. I'm considering liposuction to further reduce my breasts to my desired size. How long would you suggest I wait before I get the lipo and will it solve my problem? Also, would you suggest lipo or excision for axillary fat which my surgeon did not remove during the BR? p.s. I'm fit and healthy, I workout, and I've had no recovery issues whatsoever. Thank you!
