WORTH IT
Hello again! After my procedure in January 2016, I was a 32DDD and wanted to go smaller. So we went back in! I am currently 8days post-op and I feel much better than I did the first go around. I took pain meds for 4 days following the procedure and stopped because they made me constipated and I am not a fan of medicine. The pain is moderate and tolerable, but very uncomfortable. Sleep is very hard and uncomfortable as well. This time around I have experienced some spasms in my right breast as if my breast muscles are clenching. So far I am very very VERY happy!! My breast are small and I cannot wait for theme to heel.

Two Weeks Post-Op
Jsnell1995November 26, 2016
I am two week post-op now and I have mild discomfort. Sleeping is still very difficult and uncomfortable. I am slightly propped up, but find myself turning to my sides throughout the night. My breast are starting to itch and I find myself scratching around the tape. I will post 3 week post op pictures without the tape soon.

Congrates on your reduction. My very first reduction was 10/2016 and I went from a 38G to a 38 DDD and I'm happy I'm smaller but I'm feeling like I'm still too big as well. My provider said much more off would have complicated my nipple which I was totally against but now I'm feeling like maybe after they heal I might be ok.....how did you end up being a DDD. And did anything change with your nipples?

Other than size, my nipples are the same. I ended up being a DDD because of the amount taken out the first time.

I am now 4 weeks post op and I am feeling much better. I still cannot lift heavy objects, which is expected, but I have resumed most of my normal activities. Here are some pictures.

Hi, I am thinking about a second reduction - I went from 32e to d but then had two children, am currently a dd/d depending on my weight but have lost volume and they have dropped. Did they use the same scars as first time with you and was the operation the same as first time?

Hello, they took out the old scar tissue and used the same incision method the second time. This procedure was more intensive than the first one and the healing process has been much longer. I do not have any children, but I have experienced weight gain. So far, it has not effected my breast.

Did your doctor do the second reduction for a reduced fee or was it the same as the first surgery? Thanks
Your breasts look great by the way.

How are you now? I had my breast reduction 5 months ago but also want a second one since my breast are still too large. Do you think the scarring is worse/the same?
How much more were they able to take off with this round?
Wow, that is fantastic!
