My breast are not that large, im in a 36 B/C and do not cause discomfort in any way. However, I am a piete built, 5'0 and 120 Ibs and I feel as though the size of my breast do not compliment my figure and often look bigger than they are compared to my body. My nipples are also very low which make them look very saggy and have mild stretch marks all over from rapid weight gain and then loss. I would like them reduced to the smallest size possible, preferably a 34 A. Is it possible to reduce them?

Answer: Things to consider Yes you can get a breast reduction, but it may not be the best option if you want nice looking breasts. It would be good to consider meeting with a board certified surgeon to discuss the look that you would like and have them help you with the overall visual that you are trying to achieve. With low nipples, a breast lift could be sufficient to address the issues you may have, or a lift with a small reduction. It is hard to say without photos. Women with A cups are the largest class of patients undergoing breast augmentation operations due to unhappiness with size and look. Most women having breast reduction will do best to retain a C cup or larger because smaller breasts than that will have more likelihood of injury to the blood supply of the nipple areolar complexes. Talk to a doctor, especially if you can find one in your area with imaging software that can demonstrate what the post-op look would be overall. Good Luck!

Answer: Thank you for your question. Unfortunately there are no pictures. You would need a physical exam to determine if you are a candidate for a breast reduction. There are different techniques available. If the nipple areolar complex is above the fold and the breast skin is not loose you may be a candidate for liposuction of your breasts alone. Please note that breast are made up of fat and breast tissue. One can suction out fat but not breast tissue. If you have a lot of breast tissue then you may be a candidate for a formal breast reduction. The underlying breast tissue and fat is excised and if need be the skin is tightened and the nipple areolar complex is elevated to a more youthful height. I utilize the Halpern breast marker which I invented. I incorporate the FINNESSE technique (which I also invented). Bleeding, pain and recovery are minimal when compared to traditional techniques. I hope you find this information useful. Please watch the enclosed video.
