Good Breast Size After Reduction for Large Frame?

August 25, 2009
Asked By:ME4ME in ALABAMA

I am about 5 ft 9 in and weigh about 250 lbs, with large frame and more muscle than fat (but not very lean). I want to have a breast reduction because of back problems. I am a 42-44 DDD. I would like to reduce to a full C. Is that a good size for my frame? I would also love to have less sagging and fuller breasts without implants. Is that possible?
