I am 25 and used to be 300 pounds but lost a little bit of weight. I have always had pretty big breasts, even when I was 11 my breasts were bigger. I have been having severe neck, shoulder, and upper back pain. I have been trying to find financial help as well. Although my weight is a problem in itself, it is not the main problem. My bra size is currently 48 DD and has been since I was 18. The type of seizures I have, if I get too heated, It causes me to fall down, so exercising won't help.

Answer: Reduction Hello and thank you for your question! A reduction could help with the heavier/dense breast tissue, however, most plastic surgeons will not perform surgery with a BMI >35 due to the complications that can occur after surgery. With a BMI >35 you will not have optimal healing and could alter your results. My recommendation would be stick to a strict diet plan (if you are unable to work out) and try to lose a little more weight, so you can move forward with your surgery! For the best possible results, get to a good weight and do your research on your surgeon.

Answer: Excess weight and #breastreduction with #PlasticSurgery Considering weight and bra band width, your BMI seems to be quite high. I would have thought that your breasts contribute significantly to your high BMI too. Having a high BMI carries some risks with it, mainly related to the general anaesthetic and wound healing. One has to weigh the risk versus benefit in considering surgery in someone like you. Ideally, your BMI should atleast be around 30 or just over to justify doing the procedure for you. Loosing weight will also help loose weight off your breasts.
