56 Years, Finally Getting Breast Reduction After Years of Wishing - Sydney, AU

WORTH IT$20,000
After having each of my three children my once compact and firm breasts (b to c cup) gradually increased to a DD bordering on E. The left side has always been bigger, but the discrepancy has become more noticeable the as the breasts have increased in size. I know DD isn't all that huge, but being small and high waisted they are out of proportion with my torso size. It's as if my waist is where the breasts end, no midriff. I can't wear tank tops or stappy dresses as I always need to wear heavy duty bras. Swimwear is also a problem for me. I have also noticed in recent years the underwire digging in at the sides which is very uncomfortable as well.

I did a fair amount of research online and have decided to go ahead with Dr Ellis Choy from Zilver Lining, Northbridge in Sydney. He had excellent reviews from his patients on Real Self, and upon meeting with him and his staff I felt extremely confident about my upcoming procedure. He explained everything in extreme detail and showed me previous procedures he has performed. He spent over an hour talking with me about every aspect and I signed up to proceed with it on that very day. I should also mention I am having an upper eyelid reduction at the same time. My surgery is on Thurs 24 March (6 days time!). I have requested a moderate reduction (and lift). I am looking forward to it actually, and not that worried (so far anyway). Will try and post again soon. Wish me luck!

I just had my reduction on March 14. Similar circumstances as yours. My daughter's say I have high school breasts now ;0). Can't wait to heal and go hiking.

Correction to costing

Please note on my original post I mentioned $20,000 but this was in US$. The cost is around $15,000AU. I should also receive $1,300 or so rebate from Medicare and health fund. All the hospital part is covered also (I hope...)

Sorry for upside down pics. Don't know what happened..I couldn't rotate them)

Wow they are pretty big, what size are they now and what size are you trying to go down too?

DD-E. Want to be around a C.

Wow an E, that's amazing, besides them being a little saggy they don't look like an DD-E
