My breasts are really heavy and they hang low all the time. I wear bra very less as its really uncomfortable. But if don't wear, I have this pain in my neck and chest all the time. My boobs also hurt most of the time. I wear a 34 DD bra usually. I am planning to go for a breast reduction but what if they sag again? I don't wear bra all the time. Please help.
Answer: Breast Pain and Sagging Thank you for your question.You seem like a great candidate for a breast reduction. They will be less saggy, and will probably help with your neck and breast pain (can't guarantee that, though).You are correct, your breasts may eventually begin to sag again. That's just part of being on Earth with gravity, and the aging process. However, the amount of sagging you'll have will be much less than if you didn't have the procedure and your breasts continued to sag. I recommend having the procedure to alleviate the symptoms you have currently. If, in the distant future, your breasts grow and sag again, you can have another reduction. Please be sure to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast Reduction Candidate From your description you seem to be a good candidate for breast reduction. I would encourage you to only consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.With a significant reduction you may not be able to breast feed later.Here are some general guidelines about if you are a good candidate and the procedure itself:andidates for SurgeryCandidates for Breast Reduction surgery are women who wish to have smaller breasts to achieve a more proportional appearance or to alleviate physical discomfort. Breast reduction can correct symptoms from excessively large, heavy breasts that may cause the inability to do certain exercises, or create back, shoulder and neck pain, poor posture, bra-strap shoulder indentations and chafing or rashes under the breasts. Women experiencing these discomforts may benefit from Breast Reduction, also called Reduction Mammoplasty. Furthermore, large breasts may interfere with normal daily activities or exercise and will be more comfortable when reduced. Women who feel that their excessive breast size decreases a sense of attractiveness and self confidence, or results in unwanted attention are also candidates.Intended ResultAlso known as reduction mammoplasty, Breast Reduction is an operation intended to reduce the size of a woman’s breasts and improve their shape and position. Frequently, the areola (dark skin around the nipple) is also made smaller. Functional symptoms (medical problems) caused by excessive breast weight may be relieved or improved by this operation. Mammoplasty patients will experience a more attractive contour and smaller breast size, freedom from health problems associated with excessively large breasts and improved self image. There is an extremely high rate of patient satisfaction from this surgery. They are some of the happiest group of patients I have in my practice.Procedure DescriptionBreast Reduction is performed as an outpatient procedure and the vast majority of our patients tell us that there was far less discomfort in the early recovery period than was anticipated. In most cases I use a minimal incision surgery using a “vertical” or “lollipop” scar technique this method has been used in Brazil and France for many years but is performed by a minority of Plastic Surgeons in this country. The benefits include: approximately fifty percent less scarring, a narrower breast, better forward projection and shape, longer lasting improvement, shorter surgery time and less complications. In general, we have stopped using the older traditional “anchor” or inverted “T” incisions as these provide inferior results. The procedure is done under general anesthesia on an out-patient basis or in the hospital it there are additional medical conditions.Liposuction may be used during the procedure to reduce the size of the breast in selected patients. Liposuction alone has the least number and size of scars but has the greatest limitations in shaping and reducing the breast. Liposuction may be combined with the vertical method to give an optimal shape to your breasts. Adjustments of the Nipple and/or Areola can also be done at the same time.In rare circumstances for extraordinarily large or bulky breasts, gigantomastia, for technical reasons, we sometimes remove the nipples completely and reattach them as “free grafts”. The sensory nerves are all cut, and even though a certain amount of sensation returns after healing, it will never be normal and erotic sensation if present prior to surgery (many of these patients preoperatively do not have this due to stretch of their nerves) is lost completely. The milk ducts are interrupted in this operation, so nursing would be impossible. You will be amply informed in advance if your breasts are in this category. This may be one of the exceptions where the inverted T or Anchor technique is utilized.#breastreduction#breastreductioncandidate

Answer: I am 21 year old. I have huge saggy boobs. It's giving me a lot of pain. What to do? I am sorry to hear about the problems your disproportionately large breasts cause. Based on your description, you may be an excellent candidate for breast reduction surgery. This operation tends to be one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform.

Answer: Schedule a consultation You need to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area (link below) to be assessed in person. Although there will be some sagging with time after a breast reduction -- no one can fight gravity -- it will not be what you are experiencing now. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: Breast lift surgery It sounds as though you would be an ideal candidate for a breast reduction procedure which would help to alleviate many of the symptons you describe. Discuss your options with a fully qualified plastic surgeon.
