I have always had big breast since middle school. Most kids got growth spurts, well the only thing that grew on me were my boobs. I hated them! I was teased and taunted all threw school because I was more developed than almost all of the girls my age. Once I got older, I grew to love them. They got me free things, I got into clubs for free, and they definitely caught lots of attention. I didn't realize how bad the back and shoulder pain was until I joined the Army and running was the hardest thing to accomplish. I had my daughter a year later after joining and they grew to a 34E. Eventually they went back down to a 34DDD but the pain never went away! I notice myself hunching over more and more everyday. I also think its starting to affect my knees as well! So I set up a consultation with my care provider and he referred me to the plastic surgeon clinic on Fort Bragg. BTW I am an active duty soldier so this operation is no cost to me, it is considered a necessary fix.

FIRST Consultation visit!

So I had my first consultation with the actual surgeon that was suppose to do my breast reduction. Well I had a very small keloid on my left shoulder from a Small pox shot that all soldier had to get that we're going to Korea. I didn't take care of it properly so it formed a small keloid. So Dr. Serafin scheduled a surgery to remove the keloid and add steroids and monitor the keloid.

Keloid meltdown!!

The stitches popped open and left ugly scars. I had to go to the ER but the way Dr. Serafin cut the keloid out there wasn't enough tension in my skin to be able to put stitches back in. So they pulled my sling together to apply steri strips over the incision site. It was very upsetting. I constantly went back every 3 weeks to get the scar checked out and he eventually denied me for the breast reduction surgery because my keloid was not healing correctly. I was heart broken!
