I had a breast reduction a week before my 15th birthday. I was about a DD/DDD. My PCP convinced my mom that I should get it. I wanted a C or big C. I got a small B big A cause he said I will have kids soon and they will get bigger. I had complications after the surgery on my left breast. I needed a drainage pump there they were scabbing around the nipple which caused discoloration. Scars are huge. In my 30s now I hate them. I'm very insecure about them. I don't know what to do or where to start.

Answer: Enhancing reduced breasts I recommend an in person evaluation by a plastic surgeon to be measured and discuss your goals. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of former patients with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size breast implant is right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the implants have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved.

Answer: Breast reduction You would benefit from some scar revisions although most of your scars healed well. I don’t like the suture marks on the incision under the breast but that would be improved with the scar revision. It is now uncommon for breasts to end up smaller than you thought because some fat gets absorbed over the first several months. It would be simple to add an implant at the tome of revision as well to give you shape you want.
