18 Year Old, Small Girl with Big Boobs....Breast Reduction Saved Me! - East Rochester, NY

WORTH IT$7,001
Before having the breast reduction surgery, I was very self-conscious and realized how much my boobs were effecting my life. It was getting harder to exercise and even find clothes and bras that fit right. I thought I was too young for the procedure, but I realized that the pros definitely outweighed the cons! The pros included improvement of my overall quality of life; allowing me to be free of shoulder pain and improving my posture, letting me to exercise fully and run again, and fitting into the cute things an 18 year old should be able to wear! I would say the only cons was that it took me a good 2 weeks to recovery and then maybe a month to feel completely normal and I do have thicker scars since I am younger. However, I still think it was so worth it and I am so happy with the results!

Thank you for joining us in the community.  Congratulations on your results and thank you for sharing.   How many cup sizes were they able to reduce you?

Yes, happy to have joined! I'm glad I can share in hopes of helping others. I was able to go from a DDD to a C! So down 3 cup sizes, however, prior to surgery I was not sure what size I would go down to. Dr. Koenig did a wonderful job at assessing how much tissue to take out so that I would be most proportionate to my own body and also was able to even out my breasts which was so amazing and life changing!

That's wonderful!  Thank you for the update.
