Forgot to add…
WORTH IT$25,000
So, the only thing that hasn’t bounced back 100% is my nipples. It is the price to pay having had a free nipple graft, to get to a smaller size. The pigment is almost returned on my left, and that nipple has some elevation when the areola reacts, but my right nipple is almost non discernible on my areola, and it’s still pretty pink, not much pigment. That said, myself and my husband are the only ones that see it, so I’m ok with it. It’s a fair trade in my opinion. The doctor said I could have color tattooed later, but I doubt I will. Anyway, wanted to add those details to help give a more clear picture. The shape and size overall of my breast are amazing! Wouldn’t have made any different of a decision

8 month pics
Pic update! 8 months out. In tank top only, no bra. Had my last post op last month and all checked out well. I’ve gained about 10 lbs since my surgery but still holding at a 36 D to DD. I wouldn’t have minded to be smaller, but with almost 6 lbs of breast tissue off, my back pain and other issues are resolved! So it was successful! Not to mention wearing normal size swimsuits on vacation, that felt like a dream!!

I know I am not the only one that has dealt with this. But men requesting pictures of my breasts, feels like such a violation. I have reported it to RealSelf. This website has helped me so much in my journey. I wanted to help someone else in return, not have some perverts asking for pics. That is exactly why I didn’t post any bare pictures. If you are a woman out there, and considering this surgery with my surgeon, he can provide those pics for your benefit. I will not be posting them on here. Will be happy to answer any sincere questions from WOMEN.
End rant.

It's never ok for a man to ask for pics of women's breasts. Let your "woman" ask for herself. And do her own research if that was the case.
<>...sorry but this is just your opinion (NOT ALL MEN ARE PERVERT).
You wrote <<"woman">> using quotes, I consider this way of doing a bit presumptuous and I don't want to continue this useless discussion

How was the recovery? I’m going from a g to a full c small d I think. I don’t want to be too small, but I want to not hurt. So how is your back? How soon did you go back to work?
Thanks
So I'm like a D-DD at this point in my recovery, and my back feels like new. I told my doctor to get me as small as possible. While aesthetically I would like to be smaller, my reduction resolved my pain!! I was back to light duty 1 week post op, off ibuprofen at 10 days, and went back to normal besides heavy lifting at 2 weeks. Just don't rush activity, listen to your body. I had zero complications or infection after surgery. I listened very closely to what they said about activities and diet. Hope this helps!
If you don’t show your face who is going to know your identity? Just wondering!
Not personally comfortable with it. I'm actually to the point now, where I may delete everything but my doctor review. All of this is causing a lot of emotional stress.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I'm in about the same boat you were before surgery. I'm very modest and having large breasts has given me the kind of attention I never wanted. I hope to get my breast reduction in late summer 2020 and am just starting to explore surgeons in Southern CA. I also will not be posting before/after pics for the same reason you are not. Thanks again for sharing your journey. It's a brave thing to do.
Whoops, I meant summer of 2021.
It's a wonderful thing to walk around in public, and no one is looking at my chest!! Not to mention the physical relief I got from the surgery. I would 100% do it again.
Right on! I can't wait to be able to say that too :)
