WORTH IT$15,000
I'm a 24 year old who has had issues from large breasts. Since I was 13, I've had a narrow rib cage and large breasts. At 12, I was a B going on C, and that's the last time that I liked them. At 14, I was already pouring out of my DD from Victoria's Secret. The rapid growth created many stretch marks on the side and underneath. I would like to be a small C. I will still have to special order my bras online due to the band size. Unfortunately, 28C is still not a size that is readily available in store. I can wear a 30, but I wear it on the tightest hook, so it has nowhere to go stretch-wise. They only west a few months before the elastic stretches and they are not wearable, or at least uncomfortable on my shoulders.
I've had 3 consultations so far, and have been approved through one of them for a reduction, with only my insurance deductible to pay. Unfortunately, I don't really like the one that got me approved (#2) hence the visit with #3.
Third time will hopefully be the charm! I expect to hear back in the next few weeks.
I'll be updating this review with photos, information, and a step-by-step of my experience.
As a final mention, I am looking at getting a lollipop reduction vs anchor. I want to avoid the horizontal scar, since I want to wear low cut dresses and bikinis. Not trading one breast issue for another!
Thanks for reading, and I will appreciate any comments so that I know I'm not writing to thin air :)

Im really pleased with the doctor that did my reduction and he was a good 4K less than the beverly hills consults I went on( You pretty much pay for the area) . I am super picky and I liked him. His name is Dr. Otoole in Pasadena. Check him out and go on a free consult. Good luck :)

Hello, if you don't mind me asking, how much is Dr O'Toole charging for a reduction?

Hi, any updates on your quest for the surgery? I am in the same boat of shopping around....Its very confusing. Would love to compare notes on Dr's etc.

Lost my job last year, resulting in the need to postpone, since my insurance was no longer valid. *SIGH*
Fast forward 1 year, and I have secured another job with fantastic benefits and Blue Cross insurance. I am laying the ground work now with doctors visits and Chiropractors to help my case. I also did the Schnur Sliding Scale calculation and determined that, if Blue Cross uses this scale, I need to remove about 290 grams each. I am a 28G-H, and would LOVE a small C or full B. I believe that 300 grams from each (more from the right, as it is at least one full cup size larger) should do the trick. Fingers crossed...

26 years old now. Surgery Date secured!!
I have a surgery date. March 7 is the big day. I'll try to do my best to document my entire journey here on real self so that others doing research on this surgery will benefit. I am going through with an anchor reduction to get more lift from the procedure and so that I can go smaller than with a lollipop.
Updates to come!

Time to share photos! I gained a bit of weight from all the recent stress in my life. About 6 pounds. Sitting at a 30H Freya Bra size. Going to eat very healthy for the next week and go for a few runs with my dog.

I don't blame you. It's coming up fast and will be life-changing (in a good way)! I hope you're excited too, though!

I am a 30H in Freya - I'm very excited for you and to see how it goes. Best of luck!!
I will be waiting to hear more details from you.
