25 Year Old Breast Reduction/lift - Atlanta, GA

The reason I had the surgery was because ever since I was a teenager i had overgrown breasts and ballooned to a 46GGG after my daughter . I said for 7 years prior to my surgery i was going to get it down so it wasnt instant. I researched and well thought out getting it done and said the same thing about either doing a tummy tuck or lipo, which im scheduled to do a tummy tuck and fat transfer in a few weeks.
I was tired of my self image issues with my breasts and them drooping down to my almost my stomach. They took 10 lbs off my chest and I felt better about my self after it and done regret it despite the complications. I had major complications as I had difficulties with anasthethia that affected my breathing during surgery and they had to hurry and close me up why my scarring is not so wonderful with my anchor cut. They cut your breasts in a anchor shape.
The surgery took a few hours but they took 10 lbs off my chest that alleviated my back problems, posture, and gave me better self confidence. Recovery for me was long and painful but i have a low pain tolerance. Originally I took 3 weeks off work but had to end up taking 7 due to my complications and pain. My breasts were swollen and hurt due to extra sensitivity i gained in my nipple area cause 75 percent of my nipple was removed cause they were so large. They made me a new nipple and areola attached to my new 38c breasts.
If you gain weight after surgery your breasts can expand even after your scars heal or even the breasts can come back but it will never go back to the pre surgery size as it physically not able to.
Your weight portions in other areas after surgery, especially if its used to going in your breast area like mine.
Pros:
better self confidence
relief of back pain
easier to buy bras
no more itching under your breasts from sweat
Cons:
-complications such as breathing issues, clotting issues, and painful recovery depending on sensitivity or no feeling in your breasts again at all
extended recovery and complications such as follow up with steroid shots for a year to prevent splitting or seperating if scarring spreads wide and doesn't heal well as in my case
Long recovery

its best to do it if you can through your insurance if it is a reduction/lift. the insurance paid for me and was billed 25k due to complications. out of pocket wit no insurance 5 to 7k

I had medical complications with my breathing and asthma. I had never done general aesthetic and realize now its best i dont go under..i was able to nurse my son fully because i had a excellent plastic surgeon who somehow was to reconnect all nerves and tissue and able to give me full feeling in my breasts from day one. The only bad part about nursing after a reduction and lift.is you will sag.in a couple years due to gravity but it never gets baxk to where it was.
