Hi I’m Layla. I’m 18 years old. I’m 5’5 in height. I weight 200lbs. I have been very self conscious since about 5th grade. My breast are a size DDD/F. I have horrible back pain and posture because of how heavy they are. I do not care for having breasts if possible I would like to get sized down to a very small size such as B or C. I cannot have children so the internal stuff really doesn’t matter. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to hear from you.
Answer: Recovery time and cost for breast reduction? Thanks so much for your inquire. The cost depends on several factors, including your surgeon’s expertise, location. Plan for 1–2 weeks off work and at least 6 weeks of restricted physical activity. I recommend to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to get a personalized cost estimate and a detailed recovery plan tailored to your needs. Sincerely, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol

Answer: Breast reduction recovery Recovery can take 2 to 6 weeks from breast reduction surgery. You must avoid stretching, vigorous exercise and heavy lifting for up to 6 weeks after the operation. Other than that, its a very easy procedure and recovery. Having excess weight has tremendous strain on your neck and back. Breast reduction surgery eases these symptoms and changes the quality of your life

Answer: Depends on Insurance and Area While a formal physical examination is necessary, it sounds like you are a good candidate for a reduction maammaplasty. With those measurements and symptoms this should be covered under your insurance, so in that case you would only owe your deductible or out of pocket expense. If paying out of pocket completely your cost will vary greatly by area/region for both your surgeon and operating room. I would make sure you are consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon so that you truly understand all of your options.

Answer: Breast reduction A breast reduction is a popular procedure that reduce and reshapes your breasts. This is one of my favorite procedures with high satisfaction rate and low downtime and risk. It is common to perform liposuction of the front bra roll (side breast) to help define the outer breast area. I would not hesitate to recommend as this is a life changer. Thank you.

Answer: Recovery time and cost for breast reduction? Hello, And thank you for the question. Based on what you are describing and the fact that your large/heavy breasts are causing you physical symptoms, breast reduction is a good option for you. During breast reduction surgery, excess breast tissue is removed, the breast is lifted and nipple/areola is typically made smaller. It is easiest to think of breast reduction as including the breast lift. The downtime (time off work) is usually 5-7 days. The cost for breast reduction varies and can be $12,000-15,000. I suggest that you seek an in person consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon specializing in Breast Reduction surgeries to further discuss your options, specific techniques, concerns and expectations. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. I hope this helps.
