I am 24 yrs old 5'5"weigh 240lbs. I am currently a 40HH. I have tried loosing weight and always gain it back. My breast only get larger the older I get. Big breast run in my family on both sides. I have back, neck, and shoulder pain. I currently have a herniated disc in my back which is irritated by my large breasts. My PCP has me seeing a nutrionist as well. Would I be a good candidate?

Answer: Would I be a good candidate for Breast Reduction 40HH? I'm sorry to hear about the symptoms your breast hypertrophy cause. You will likely be an excellent candidate for the breast reduction procedure at some point. This operation tends to be one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform. As you know, it is always best to be as close as possible to a long-term stable weight prior to any type of elective plastic surgical procedure (for many reasons). Having said that, there are cases where the surgical procedure will be a potential “jumpstart” for your continued weight loss after surgery.You will find good arguments for each approach.Best wishes as you reach your goals.

Answer: Gaining weight after reduction may increase breast size It does seem like a breast reduction would help your back pain. However, one thing to be aware of is that if you gain weight after your breast reduction surgery, your breast may grow larger as well. I would recommend having a weight goal that you can maintain before and after your breast reduction. That way you can maintain your results as best as possible.
