I saw a surgeon for breast reduction and he said my left breast is limit acceptable to grant me government coverage. I have 34D cups and my smaller one is about 400 grams according to him. The minimum to take out is 250 grams. He says it's possible and but that would be small for his standards with my shape. I could pay with my own money for less than 250 (~9,000$ CAD he said) but I'd rather not. My question is, around what cups would my breasts be if 250 grams were taken off my 400 gram boobs?
Answer: Bellesoma Breast Reduction At size 34, each 100 grams removed corresponds to 1 cup size change. To remove 400 grams would take you down remarkably. Your breasts are not that big but are low on the chest wall. The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will 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. Using this technique, you will not qualify for government assistance. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Hesitating to have breast reduction paid by government, would it result in breasts too small? (Photo) One pound is ~454 grams. A cup size is around 200 grams. It's difficult to predict bra size as each bra size varies with the manufacturer.

Answer: Breast reduction Dear Kiibie, breast reduction is best suited for women who wish to decrease the size of their breasts. While there are different techniques used to perform this surgery, I prefer the vertical incision (lollipop pattern) breast reduction technique instead of the anchor scar pattern, which reduces more noticeable scarring than usual. I also use a SAFE liposuction technique to reduce additional fat around the stubborn axilla area and bra line. This way, my patients are achieving beautiful results with minimal incisions which reduces downtime and delivers an overall better breast shape long term.If you are considering breast reduction surgery, you should consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and make sure your surgeon understands your goals. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
