How would weight loss after breast reduction surgery affect my results? Would this be noticeable?

Hello @Diligent651426, thank you for your question! When it comes to gauging the size you will end up, it is important to note that a consultation with a qualified doctor or specialist is essential for developing an accurate surgical plan that meets your desired outcome. a B/C Cup may be achievable depending on numerous factors such as current breast shape, tissue; If its gladular or fat tissue or if it dense. The right combination of techniques tailored specifically towards each individual case can help achieve aims - based on each patient's wants and needs. Best wishes!

Thank you for your inquiry! I always suggest having elective plastic surgery when you're at a stable weight. If you're currently losing/gaining weight or wanting to lose/gain weight then I would suggest waiting until weight is stable to get any breast procedure as that will affect the results. I would love to see you in person and verify that you're a good candidate for this procedure. Schedule a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon like myself so we can make a surgical plan for you and help you reach your goals!

Hi Diligent651426,
I usually recommend that our patients be at their "ideal weight" prior to having a breast reduction surgery. Weight loss can result in a decrease of adipose (fat) tissue in the breast after a breast reduction, despite the fact that you also have dense fibrous breast tissue. This can alter the appearance of the final desired result and or lead to excess skin laxity. As always, it is best to consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. After a a physical examination of the breast, your surgeon would be better able to tell you how weight loss may affect your breast shape and appearance post-operatively.
