Unfortunately, you have not provided photographs. However, the technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reduce and reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying pectoralis major muscle resulting in pain relief without excessive reduction. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.
Hello, thank you for your question. It is hard to tell without a physical examination, I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.
There is not one right answer for what is proportionate, and patients will have a wide range of what they find attractive and aesthetic with regards to breast size. Some patients prefer to remain on the fuller side while others wish to be as small as possible. You should look through a lot of surgical photo gallery pictures to give your surgeon a sense of what looks good to you personally. Also, keep in mind that the smaller you go, the more weight reduction and back / neck pain symptom relief you will have, so this should be factored into your decision making as well. Best! -RC
Dear RassiJay,Breast reduction is best suited for women who wish to decrease the size of their breasts. While there are different techniques used to perform this surgery, I prefer the vertical incision (lollipop pattern) breast reduction technique instead of the anchor scar pattern, which reduces more noticeable scarring than usual. I also use a SAFE liposuction technique to reduce additional fat around the stubborn axilla area and bra line. This way, my patients are achieving beautiful results with minimal incisions which reduces downtime and delivers an overall better breast shape long term.If you are considering breast reduction surgery, you should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and make sure your surgeon understands your goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MDCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
