I Am a 38 DD Bra Size Would It Be Possible to Get a Reduction Down to a C Cup? (photo)

Thank you for your question and photos.  It will be in your best interest to visit with a well experienced plastic surgeon to discuss breast size after breast reduction surgery but with the information that you have provided, I do think you could go from a DD to a C with this surgery.  Because a "c cup" may be different for different people, I suggest that my patients bring in goal photos so that I can see what they are trying to achieve.  This is a much more accurate way of discussing breast size.

Best Wishes.

In my experience with hundreds of breast reductions, going from DD to C is possible.  It is best to examine a patient in the office to confirm this.  In our practice we offer two different breast reductions and the traditional reduction can take out much more breast tissue.  Best wishes!!

Majority of patients who undergo breast reduction are very happy with the outcome. If you are having neck pain, back pain shoulder pain, and have very large breasts, you are a good candidate. You must remember that this surgery involves significant scars. Look at post-op pictures and see if you are willing to accept the scars, in return for smaller breasts. As for the final size without an exam it is hard to be precise, but C cup is possible.
