Hello Everyone..I'm 23 & I'm Having My Surgery Done In Hilton Head, SC With Dr. Brenden Smith. Since The Age Of 9 I've Been Dealing With Big Breast. Growing Up With Shoulder Pains & Constant Backaches Have Turned Me To Getting A Breast Reduction. Praying For Youth Breast That Are Average For My Age.

I'm So Ready But Still A Little Nervous! I've Wanted Smaller Breast For Years!
August 5, 2016
Me too I was nervous and they gave me a relaxer before going into the operating room that helped so much to the point where I don't even remember being wheeled into the operating room...LOL I'm sure if you want that they will give you one too!!

I had a BR just a month ago! I've also dealt with big boobs all my life (I'm 21). I was triple D's and although I could've lived [miserably] with the physical appearance...the back and shoulder pain just got so bad I couldn't stand it any longer. Best decision of my life. The first day of recovery, same day right after surgery, is hell but honestly as the days go by the pain noticeably decreases. Surprisingly after 3 days I felt little to no discomfort :) wish you good results on your surgery!

Oh just so you don't misunderstand; I'm still in the midst of recovery. 3 days is just how much you feel pain from the surgery but by no means does that mean you are fully recovered.

I'm Also A DDD. What Size Did You End Up Being After Swelling Went Down?
August 17, 2016
Seems like a C. But you don't actually know your size until like a year because it takes time for it to "drop" naturally and such.

Hello Everyone

It's Been A While .. I've Been Down For A Few Weeks.. Due To Family Issues I Had To Push My Surgery Back Until Oct 18. I've Brought Everything That I Could Possibly Need For My Surgery.. From Sports Bras To Healing Cream.. I'm More Worried About My Healing Process Now Than I Was Before.. I'm Ready To Go In & Become Someone That I've Always Been But With Smaller Boobs !
