Finally Getting a Breast Reduction! Virginia Beach, VA

WORTH IT$6,650
Hi all! I'm 19, 5'3 and 125lbs and I've been trying to get this reduction for a while now with horrible neck, shoulder, and back pain and almost constant migraines and headaches. I finally got my parents to agree with me and set up some consultations around mid-July. Luckily the surgeon I liked most's office told me they could expedite my insurance claim (since i couldn't afford it without them) because going back to college on August 17th put us at a bit of a time crunch. I had notes from 2 different doctors and my medical history for migraines and medicines I've tried sent over with my surgeons notes. Only 2 weeks later and I was approved! I couldn't believe all this time stressing and worrying about being approved and it finally happened. I cried reading the letter I was so happy! And they told me the surgery could be set up for the 4th, this Monday! unfortunately it's going to be at 2pm so I have to hold out on eating all day but it's a great trade!
I finally am getting rid of these 32G's for some nice B's or C's! Well hopefully that's the size range I'm looking for lol It's all going so fast now which is amazing. I mean I only got the blood work for the surgery yesterday! I'm so nervous I probably won't be able to sleep until it's over! Wish me luck!
PS. I'll probably post before and afters after it's done :P

Day of treatment
Surgery today at 2!
I woke up at 4am out of pure excitement, just making the wait longer but I've been walking, done yoga, and anything else I could think of to distract myself all day. I haven't eaten since midnight last night and I'm starving but it'll be worth it soon! Only a few more hours to go! I hoe I have everything I'm gonna need for the next few days but my mom is looking after me so she should be able to get it if i don't have it.
I've been reading reviews on here like crazy, figuring out all I need and what to wear and bring and I feel pretty good. My PS is gonna give me a support bra for post-op so that's one less thing to worry about. I'm just so excited! I can't believe it's really gonna happen!

I wish my doc had given me a support bra. I was told to take the underwire out of my old bra which worked for awhile, but the band was uncomfortable. My sister-in-law gave me some Genie like sports bras which fit, but I think I lack the support I need. I ordered a new bra, but I'm afraid the band width is going to be too small, so I'm going to go hint for a bra today, and hope for the best. Good lick I'm your surgery. Let us know how it goes.

thanks! it went awesome! I was so relieved when my PS told me he would be giving me the bra! I hope it all goes well for you and you get something that works great!

I was very glad that Mine did too ! They should for Everybody ! We have enough to worry about at the time ! LOL ! Especially having to almost run around like a Chicken with your Head Cut Off - to TRY and find SOMETHING that they already KNOW - what THEY WANT for us to wear - to heal !

I am 1 week post op, and I'm still trying to find a good bra. My SIL (sister-in-law) gave me four bras, and I had the sports bra on, but I didn't like the support. Then I ordered a surgical front snap bra, and it doesn't come until Friday. I went shopping yesterday to look for a bra, and everything is underwire or padded. When I got home, I looked I at the bras my SIL gave me, and there was a bra that I could wear, it still goes over my head, but it's supports me like a real bra, and the band at the bottoms is wider so it doesn't touch my scar. I thought I was done having trouble finding bras...

Get a Marena B2 surgical bra. For 34-36 band get M, if larger - L. It's the best. 2 front close bras that my PS gave me sit on my incisions - I can't wear them.
