Is there any way to further reduce my breasts without a free nipple graft? (Photo)

September 8, 2021
Asked By:TT080 in Millersville, Maryland

I had a 30/32G before I had my breast reduction surgery. After, the breasts settled and I am still experiencing problems: rashes, indentations, and bras do not fit. I am still TOO big for my body. I am at a full D cup, still with a fairly small frame/back. I got horrible news where my surgeon said she would have to do a free nipple graft to take a few more inches off. I am no doctor but that seems ridiculous! It is still a lot of breast meat to take off, can one do the same anchor procedure?
