I'm 5'2 with broad shoulders and big breasts, is there any procedure out there to minimize this masculine look?

babypicassoMay 26, 2015
I have a good enough waist to hip ratio but it is drowned out by my overwhelming breasts and broad shoulders. At 5'2 and about 160lbs I'm not at my ideal weight, I could loose weight but unfortunately my hips and butt go down in the same proportion as the rest of my body leaving still leaving me with a bigger upper body. At my ideal weight of 130lbs I'll hardly have any fat for a BBL while a Breast reduction will still leave me with the broad shoulders.Are there any procedures out there for me?

Letter sizes are notoriously inaccurate way to talk about breast size. We discuss the proportion of patients and will typically reduce the patients volume to the desired proportion. We leave them with something appropriate for their figure.

If you are collecting fluid, then you are best to have the fluid aspirated so that you do not have bursa develop with recurrent fluid accumulation.

This will take several weeks to heal with good local wound care. Be patient. They often go onto heal quite well.
