If I Remove 700cc From 42DD, Where Would That Put Me? (photo)

A 42 DD breast corresponds to 2.6 liter per side.  Removal of 700 cc's would bring you down to 1900 cc's, which is between a B and a C.  I would not recommend a breast reduction, a tummy tuck and liposuction done at the same time.  This is a long operation for a 207 lb patient and you may have pulmonary complications including pulmonary embolism.  I recommend you undergo an abdominoplasty with mesh reinforcement first.  After losing weight from the abdominoplasty, then do the breast reduction.

Best of Luck,

Thanks for the photos posted. WOW some much surgery in one setting. At that weight I'm concerned for the amount of time in surgery could approach 6 to 8 hours. You might want to reconsider in staging theses operation especially at the weight of 207. You may have increased risks for postoperative complications. As to the size 700 cc's removed would give you, about a large C or small D cup. Be careful out there. Regards 

A 700 cc reduction should leave you at a large C cup. This is all conjecture, of course. My larger concern would be that your reduced breasts will make your abdomen appear larger and from the photo, I am unsure whether liposuction will produce an appropriate abdominal contour. If you are referring to abdominoplasty with liposuction, that is entirely different. Under Aetna's guidelines, you may not be approved because of BMI calculations as you fall outside their weight standard so be prepared for this unless you have extremely well documented conservative medical management.
