Breast reduction: 34DDD cup size, what will 400g reduction leave me at? (Photos)

April 9, 2018
Asked By:grufdyg in San Francisco, CA

My insurance requires a 400 gram reduction (per breast) and I was wondering what that translates to. I know that cup sizes aren’t a reliable source of measurement so I was wondering how many grams would need to be removed to get from the first two pictures (me) to the last (desired size). Is it more or less than 400 grams? Thank you!
