Should I wait to lose weight to get a breast reduction?

September 10, 2014
Asked By:MontanaCharly in Helena, MT

I am 53 years old, 5' 5", and about 160 pounds. I am working out and losing weight but I am planning on a breast reduction. I am a 38H and plan on a full D. Would it be better to wait until I lose the last 30 pounds or can I get it sooner? What difference will the weight loss be on my breasts? I don't want sagging. Thank you.
