I'm scheduled to have a breast reduction surgery later this year and have been trying to lose weight before the surgery, but will not be at my goal by surgery time, I can't reschedule. I'm 5'10 and 200 lbs, with a size G breast looking to go to a D or DD. At my thinnest weight of 150 and a size 4/6 I still had a D cup breast. Will losing weight after surgery ruin my breast reduction results, or will I maintain breast volume because I was chesty even when I was thin?

Answer: Weight during breast reduction Thank you for your question. For best results, I would advise you to be at a stable weight at the time of surgery. Hope this information helps!

Answer: Weight loss decreases breast fat At 5’10 and 200 lbs, your BMI is 28.5. A portion of your breasts are fat but the other portion is parenchyma. If you lose weight your parenchyma stays the same but your fat may decrease. 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.
