I am 18 Years Old, size 32J & I'm 146 pounds. Am I eligible for a breast reduction? (Photo)

Hi & thank you for your question.At eighteen your breasts should have stop growing, so yes you are a candidate for breast reduction surgery. I recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for a evaluation .Check with your health insurance company to see if this surgery is a covered benefit.Hope this helps & good luck!

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us. After having analyzed all the information provided to us, i can realize that you have very large breasts for your height and weight, and can be responsible for head, back, neck and shoulder pain.In the future may cause permanent osteo-articular damage in the back and shoulders and skin problems (mainly under the breasts). For for this reasons, certainly you need a breast reduction surgery.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-

Based on your photos and your back pain, yes, I'd say you are definitely a candidate for a breast reduction. And, at 18, your breasts should have stopped growing. Which means they won't get bigger, unless you gain a lot of weight, but they will continue to adversely affect your everyday life. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss. Given your size, your insurance company may even cover part of the procedure. Good luck.

Breast reduction is a functional operation. The plastic surgeon certainly wants an attractive result but patients benefit symptomatically from the procedure. From your description in the photographs I think you'd be an excellent candidate.

You are the ideal candidate for breast reduction which is a rather easy and straight forward procedure that relieves your back and shoulder pain instantly while also improving the aesthetic appearance.
