I wear a 34 DD and insurance will only cover 260 grams with my body's surface area, will that amount get me to a b cup?
Answer: Breast reduction Breast Reduction is a complicated procedure that is best done by those with the most training and experience. It is very difficult to determine the resultant cup size and shape based solely on the number of grams that are removed from your breast to best match your ideal breast image without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing breast reduction and lift surgeries, including different approaches, techniques and even fat transfer and implant choices if you are lacking superior breast fullness.This is because several measurements—not to mention breast characteristics such as density—are needed to determine how much and where to remove breast tissue to meet your goals. Without knowing your existing breast shape, dimensions, and the density of your breast tissue, it would be difficult to make this determination. For example, the same volume of breast tissue will weigh different amounts (measured in ounces or grams) in different people depending on its density. The existing base width of your breast and what you will ultimately want to look like will determine, in many cases, the maximal volume and weight that will need to be removed for the best result.Please click on the link below for more information!

Answer: Breast reduction Unfortunately, volume reduction does not always correlate with cup size. Best to be seen in person. Good luck.

Answer: Is 260 grams going to get me from my current DD cup to a B cup? Without seeing some pictures it would be impossible to give you a real answer, but I think it is unlikely he will go from a DD to a B cup with just to 260 g reduction. That said, through her insurance companies authorization of 260 g means that the minimum the needs to be removed for authorization. Your surgeon can certainly remove more tissue.
