WORTH IT
Love my results, they’re soft yet firm with just the right bounce. I’m still not wearing underwire and I’m still sleeping in a soft bra other that scars look fine.

I’ve been on a weight loss journey since I decided to have the surgery. I lost 20lbs before the operation and I’ve lost and additional 25lbs. Here’s some pics. And no my weight loss has not affected my post op boob size, but my band is getting loose

Hi, congratulations on your successful surgery & weightloss. Was your procedure covered by insurance?
May 1, 2020
Yes it was fully covered! Including my overnight stay in the hospital for monitoring. I have CareFirst

This doctor messed you up she did not know what she was doing. My niece had breast reduction surgery and she looks excellent they did not cut her nipples. This is a total wack job.
May 1, 2020
Wow, her comment was really rude and uncalled for. I admit I was concerned about your early results but by month 10 they look phenomenal!
May 5, 2020
That is so not encouraging. This place is to support other women in their journey. Not to criticize someone's procedure.
May 5, 2020
Thank you. I did my research and picked a doctor with good results. My results looked concerning at first because I went from a very large size and there was a lot of skin removed. I’m very pleased with my results.
May 5, 2020
Yeah, especially from someone who hasn’t had the procedure and doesn’t know what they’re talking about!
August 17, 2020
Wow, that was a mean-assed comment. Every case is different. Are you a doctor and know what individual technique would be best for these patients???? Or what their surgical outcomes might be?
Bye Bye, you look great! Good for you, sister!!!

Thank you! People are rude but I did this for my health not for strangers on the internet approval.
August 20, 2020
I wasn't trying to accomplish anything by telling you the truth. I've had a doctor mess me up. My niece did it for her health also but I just looked at the way the pus and green stuff looked and she caused a major infection let alone she did a horrible job. Its happened to so many and that's why there's reconstructive surgery. I honestly was not trying to hurt you in any way I was just saying this doctor did not know what she was doing.
August 20, 2020
You know that is what the problem is people don't want to hear the truth, you want to be sugarcoated and that's why there's so many botched surgeries out here because of liars.
August 31, 2020
The comment was insensitive to say the least. You saying my doctor didn't know what they were doing (even though I healed properly with no infection, and my results look great) does what for me or the women that are reading this? If you have a botched job then report your doctor. I'm pleased with my results, thank you for your concern.

Thank you so much for sharing your journey! I am scheduled to have my surgery with Dr. Woodyard next month. I am a nervous wreck! I don't know anyone that has had surgery with her before, which can make it worse. Did you know anyone who had surgery with her when you choose her or did you find her based on your research?
July 19, 2020
Hi there, I did not know anyone that had the surgery with her before I committed but I felt very comfortable during our consultation. I also liked her post surgery pictures and the fact that a hospital stay was mandatory. I had called around for other consultations and I found the office clerks to be rude/pushy just from my inquiry. Everyone at Dr. Woodyard's office was nice and answered my 8,000 questions. Let me know if you have any other questions!

10 Months Post Op
ByeByeBoobs19April 7, 2020
10 months post op and I’m feeling good! Great actually, despite Covid 19 lockdown. I’ve been enjoying strapless tops, one strap tops, and I’ve even gone a few hours bra less. I love shopping in my own closest for items that fit better. I’m also using the safety pins that I use to use to hold my tops closed from my boobs spilling out are now just used to keep the loose top closed. I will say I still have visible scaring and I don’t think my stitches have fully healed. I still sleep on my back and in a soft bra because it’s most comfortable but over all I’m still VERY pleased and excited about my results

Hi they look much better now and they definitely have dropped into a more natural shape! Did you have a reduction with lift? I definitely want to have a be with lift and I'm aware of the possiblity of moving the nipples and losing sensation. Glad you finally are freer to move around without the extra weight. Mines are a k :(
April 9, 2020
Hi, yes I had a reduction and lift. Mine were a 38 J before my surgery. I posted before pictures as well so you can see how big and heavy they were. They removed almost a total of 4lbs from my breast. Best decision ever!
April 9, 2020
You're looking great! I'm 2-1/2 months post-op, and while I know there may still be some changes, I feel like I'm all healed up. I was really disappointed to find that all my clothes still fit, tops included, except for those I custom-made for myself and my 36HH boobs. But honestly, especially now that we're all on lock down, I barely think at all about how I look, just about how I feel, and I feel so much better it's just ridiculous. Maybe if I'd done this when I was younger I would be self-conscious about the scarring and fretting over the places that have scarred a bit more or in a crooked way, but at my age (61), I could care less. I ended up larger than I wanted to be, but the pain in my back is GONE. Not a little better, not more bearable, but GONE. It is a wonder.
April 9, 2020
Congrats and I wish you well during your continued healing. I'm so happy to be free of pain and heaviness that I'm not concerned with how the scars look either
April 11, 2020
THANK YOU soooo much for this review!! I am a 34 HH UK size and I've been wanting a reduction forever! I appreciate reviews like this because I am an American J-K? Depending on the style of the bra. Your end result is beautiful and the scarring is minimal considering what you had done. I'm also a black woman and I worry about scarring and how my areoles will look afterwards but your review helped me calm some of those nerves. So THANK YOU for posting your journey! I know everyone is different but this review helped me (and I'm sure a lot of other black women) make the right choice. I can't wait for this covid to subside so I can tart the process!
April 11, 2020
Aww I'm glad I could help! I was on this site for months before I committed to the surgery. Sadly, I didn't see many people as large as us so I said I would be sure to post my journey good or bad. I'm so thankful that my recovery has been pretty smooth. I was able to keep my nipples attached and I never lost sensation, they might even be heightened, LOL. Overall, I feel so much lighter and I wish I would've done it sooner. I wish you well on your journey and please let me know if you have any questions!
April 26, 2020
Totally agree! They look great. These reviews have helped in my decision making process.
May 1, 2020
She did a horrible job she should have NEVER cut around your nipples like that. Wow I'd be livid with the butcher job she did.
May 17, 2020
Are you a surgeon? How would my doctor be able to give me proportional nipples to smaller breast when they were hanging 8 inches south? Please don't waste what life we have left by trolling people on the internet!

I'm hoping I feel OK to do a few ZOOM hearings on day 7 after surgery. I'm going to keep my camera off, but I should be OK to talk and participate.
