I have a breast reduction next month, and my surgeon recommended either a C or D cup for me. I am currently a 30F/G and have difficulty deciding if a C or D will look better on my frame. My hips are about 37.5 inches, and my waist is 26.5. I am 5'8, and I weigh 136.
Answer: C/D cup Thanks for your question! I think that answer is really dependent on your goals. I would suggest taking some before & after photos into your next appointment where you are really pleased with the breast reduction result. That will give you both a better idea. Good luck!

Answer: Breast reduction size to frame? Hello, thank you for your question. It will be difficult to say what size would look good on your frame. We usually approximate a cup size and can tweak and do small adjustments from there. I would suggest bring in wish pics or what you like with someone who has a similar frame size. Speak to your plastic surgeon about your choices since they can complete a full in person exam.

Answer: What bra size should I tell my surgeon to aim for? Hello @Thriving683452, thank you for your question and showing your pictures. Depending on the surgical technique developed by the specialist, depending on the shape of the breast, a greater reduction will be made on one segment than on the other in order to achieve the best aesthetic result. The best aesthetic result for me would be a breast that has a good shape and proportion, that is slightly conical, and that has a slight descent in the upper part so that it looks aesthetically pleasing. When these volumes are reduced, it becomes necessary to rearrange all the tissues, keeping the areola and the nipple together. The cup that you will have depends on you and what the specialist recommends. For more information and recommendations, it is best to consult one or more board-certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Breast size There is no right or wrong answer as breast size preference varies by individual. A full C cup will fit your frame, but you need to determine if that is enough/not enough volume for you. Look at photos of women with similar dimensions as you to help you determine the look you like.

Answer: Bellesoma Breast Reduction 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.
