1 year post op breast reduction BEFORE AND AFTER
WORTH IT
Hello. Today I am 1 year post op breast reduction. I would like to show you my before and after photos. The first photo is the day before surgery, which I was a 36 I bra size. The second picture is the day after surgery. The last picture is 1 year post op at a 36 DD bra size. It's been a crazy journey, but I am glad that I did the surgery. I no longer have that neck and shoulder pain :)

Did you loose weight over the year and if so did it change the shape of your breasts

I have lost about 5 lbs. I need to lose more. My breast are still wide, but that's the way I am built; I was made to have huge boobs. Because I am wide, I wear a 36 DD. I am hoping to lose 20 more pounds. I would like to be a little smaller, but I am not sure if losing weight will make my breast smaller. I hope so, though, I would like to be a D.

9 months post op breast reduction
Hello. I am now 9 months post op breast reduction. I am feeling really good. I have not used any scar reduction creams or silicone scar sheets; I have only been using organic creams on my breast. There still is some tightness and a little soreness in the incision lines, but nothing holds me back. Life is completely back to normal :)

Hi there I am also 9 months. Post op. I still have some tenderness . I wear my bra night and day. I'm so afraid they will sag. . I read where some girl said your boobs can get bigger after a reduction. Have you ever heard that? I hope NOT!!!! On the 21 st I'll be 10 months post op. I will post some pictures. You look great.

Well hello there boo ba's. I also wear my night bra too. I hope they don't get bigger. We will just have to be very careful with our weight. I need to lose a good 10-20 pounds, so I am currently on a diet. I know with younger women that they have a good chance of their breasts getting bigger due to pregnancy and weight gain. Perhaps menopause could also be an issue. We are just going to have to keep our weight in control and stay active. Eventually, they will sag, but we will be too old to care. If we didn't have this operation, they would be hanging past our knees when we get old, hahaha :) ouch.

Hi mtjackie.!!!! You look so nice and trim. I also could loose weight. I work out like a crazy person and nothing is changing. But Atleast I try. Maybe since we had our surgery after menopause we won't sagggg. But your right. Past our knees for sure. Lol. Your awsome. Keep in touch.

Hello. I was lucky, and my doctor didn't send me home with drains. Don't worry about anything right now. Your boobs are going to be looking and feeling different every day. You are 5 days post op and swollen, bruised big time. They are going to be freaky shaped for a while now. Once you get your drains out, you will start to feel better about them. Don't worry about post op blues either. Everything will pass and get better; just hold on for the ride. Like I said, you are going to be going through so many weird stages as your breast begin to heal. Right now, they are feeling traumatized. It will take quite some time before they get back to their natural shape. Have a fabulous day, and if you ever need to ask me a question, feel free; I'm here for you :)
