I know this is a difficult question to answer, but approximately what size would I be looking at if I was to get 370 grams removed from each breast at a 32G? It is the minimum required for my body surface area by the insurance.
Answer: Breast reduction Very difficult to know without photos. What I can tell you is that the size of your breasts will continue to go down over several months after surgery as some of the fat gets resorbed. Because of this, I usually try to leave the breasts on the full side, realizing the size will continue to go down after surgery..

Answer: Breast Reduction 370 grams is not that significant if you are currently a G. This may bring you down a cup size or two. It is difficult to assess without images. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with. Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach Trained, Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Minimal reductions starting with G cups will end up with still very generous cup sizes... and speculating without seeing you or having the benefit of knowing how dense your tissue is, would expect you to still be a DD+ size. Your surgeon should be able to give you some idea of what you will be like but realize no surgeon can guarantee what cup size you will be following a reduction. Minimal excision = minimal reduction.

Answer: Size after breast reduction Hi and thanks for your question. Yes you're right this is a difficult question as it's virtually impossible to predict cup size based upon the amount of tissue which is removed at the time of breast reduction. There are many reasons why no one can predict your ultimate bra size not the least of these being that cup size isn't standardized within the beauty industry nor medical field. Patients are often frustrated that different retail stores size them very differently where one shop might size you a D and another a C cup. This is also the case in surgery as many variables determine final "cup size" some of which are beyond the control of your plastic surgeon. See an experienced breast surgeon who is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. After decades in practice, that's the best advice I can offer you. Best of luck!
