WORTH IT$6,000
I did a full review for my mommy makeover, but I figured I would separate out the procedures, too, in case in helped someone else. I have been in pain for YEARS and always felt this hot poker pain between my shoulder blades.
I'm 5'3" and 129, so the 34g was just too much for me. Saggy and not cute. Insurance surprisingly covered the reduction down to 34c. They look really good and round--I like Dr Reuben's technique. My husband also thinks they look great.
I can buy cute bras and I realized that I no longer have a neck knot that I had gotten so used to that I didn't even realize the tension till it was gone. So so worth it!

The "neck knot" you are speaking of, was that located on the back almost lookinf like a hump? I am schedule to have a TT and BS in Jan. I am so nervous but ready. Back pain is very bad. Some days I all I can do is go home and get on the heating pad.

You couldn't really see a hump, but it was like a constant muscle knot and ache. I have done chiropractic, massages, etc. and NOTHING helped the back pain like the breast reduction did. Before surgery, I would catch myself slouching or hunching because standing up straight would hurt. I am a little tender now, but my shoulders and neck aren't inflamed and sore like they always used to be. I wish I'd done it 20 yrs ago (although 20 yrs ago my surgeon probably was in junior high lol!) best decision ever.
The tummy tuck wasn't that bad. I was braced for terror and agony, and it was just more...uncomfortable. I do get tired very easily, which is a little annoying but ok. I also got really emotional about a week post op but that's done now. I am not one of those tough women at all (I totally needed pain control during labor, etc.) but even so, it really is all pretty manageable.
