Hello and thanks for your questions. You can most definitely reduce your breast size from a C to a B. However, without body contouring/liposuction, you will not be able to decrease your chest circumference from a 36 to a 34.I would encourage you to schedule a consultation and discuss your breast enhancement treatment options with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), who is a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS), and also a member of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS) demonstrating their commitment to cosmetic surgery and excellence in surgery. Assure that they have multiple before and after photos of results that you like so that you can have an informed discussion about your breast reduction/body contouring procedure and possible results.Best wishes!Daniel Brown, MD, FACS Diplomate, American Board of Plastic Surgeons MemberAmerican Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons MemberAmerican Society of Plastic Surgeons Real Self Top 50
Yes, a C cup can be reduced down to the B cup range in most breast reduction candidates. Whether that would meet insurance criteria is another matter, as insurance companies have stringent criteria for how much tissue needs to be removed to qualify. The 36/34 measurement may not change as it is related to your chest wall circumference but absolutely, a B cup target is appropriate and quite common for many patients seeking reduction. Go on some consultations with board-certified plastic surgeons who specialize in breast surgery!
