I don't understand the measurement of grams in terms of breast reduction, so my question is really to get an idea of how many grams equate to a cup size. At the moment I am trying to decide on the most I can reduce by while maintaining good bodily proportions. Any help is very much appreciated! :) Thanks!

Answer: Breast Reduction - how many grams need removed? Thank you for your question. In order to accurately assess the amount of breast tissue which needs removed in order to reach your desired cup size, my best advice to you is to schedule a personal consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Please also be advised that if you are trying to have your Breast Reduction surgery covered and paid for by your health insurance company, many plans actually require that a predetermined minimum number of grams be removed based on your Body Surface Area - (height and weight) - NOT your BMI.

Answer: How many grams would need to be taken off? Thank you for sharing your excellent question. Unfortunately there is no correlation between gram size and cup size, and much like a breast augmentation, the best way to achieve your desired goals is to speak openly with your surgeon about your expectations. Your surgeon is striving to remove enough breast tissue to improve your enlarged breast symptoms, while still maintaining your breasts proportional in size to the rest of your body. Hope this helps.
