Can I get a Breast reduction from a 32H to a 32D?

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to tell if you are a candidate for a breast reduction surgery without photos, but from your description, it sounds like you are! Board Certified Plastic Surgeons cannot guarantee a "bra size", but after evaluation you can look at photos to determine what you would like to achieve. Candidates for #BreastReduction surgery
are women who wish to have smaller #breasts to achieve a more proportional
appearance or to alleviate physical discomfort. Breast reduction can correct
symptoms from excessively #largeheavybreasts that may cause the inability to do
certain exercises, or create back, shoulder and neck pain, poor posture,
bra-strap shoulder indentations and chafing or rashes under the breasts. Women
experiencing these discomforts may benefit from Breast Reduction, also called #ReductionMammoplasty.
Furthermore, large breasts may interfere with normal daily activities or
exercise and will be more comfortable when reduced. Women who feel that their
excessive breast size decreases a sense of attractiveness and self-confidence,
or results in unwanted attention are also candidates. If you suffer from any of the above negative effects of large breasts, your insurance may cover it, but you will need to check that because insurance companies vary as to what they will cover. Best wishes!

Thank you for your question.  Without photos and more importantly, an in-person evaluation, it is nearly impossible to tell you if you qualify for this procedure.  Based on your description though, it sounds as though you might be.  However, it is highly advisable for you to reach your goal weight prior to surgery to get the best result from the breast reduction procedure.  Be sure that you are seen in person by a board-certified plastic surgeon who will be able to guide you as far as what would be both best and realistic for you.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

Hi theresounds like you are a good candidate but with a couple of conditions:breasts can develop further up to the age of 20-21, so if you are not desperate you could wait till then. Also, it's not a good idea to you lose weight after the op as your breasts will drop, so any weight loss, do it before the surgery..! Worth knowing that a breast reduction is the only op with 100% satisfaction rate in plastic surgery, when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon, and also, the chance of you being able to breast feed is over 80%.good luck!

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your description, you should be a good candidate for a breast reduction. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. With good surgical technique, you could have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G. Reish, M.D.Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

For a fully informed patient ,who is at their ideal weight and weight stable and able to be empowered to make an informed choice a breast reduction can give good results. Make sure to consult with a PS with experience in treating patients of your age and can show you results in the short and long term 

Thank you for your question.  It is possible to do the breast reduction, but it is very important for you to understand that it is best for you to loose the weight you want to loose before the breast reduction.  Breasts are formed by mammary gland and fat enclosed in a skin envelope.  If we do a breast reduction and you get beautiful perky breasts with no sagging and then you loose weight, your breasts will sag again.  My recommendation is that you accomplish the weight loss you want and then consult for the breast reduction.Best regards,Dr. Urzola

Greetings,Based on the information you supply, it appears that you are a petite , narrow framed young woman with oversized breasts.   Generally patients with your body size and breast size can be reduced significantly and it is not unrealistic to become a 32D.  You should know that bra sizes can vary widely so I never promise a patient an absolute size but it seems likely that you would be pleased with the reduction.   Make certain that you consult a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in breast reduction to get a definite answer to your question.  Good Luck
