WORTH IT
I'm 36 with a 15 yr old daughter. I've always had huge breast and my frame is fairy small. After have headaches, neck aches, shoulder and back problems I decided to get a breast reduction. I'm 12 days post op today and I feel good. I have swelling of course, taking it easy, eating healthy and the whole 9 yards. Getting impatient at home but trust me, rest rest as much as you can. Don't be Super Woman as most of us are use to doing.
By the way my insurance covered my procedure. All I paid was my copayment of $100 DLS

Dr. Kim was amazing. She's with Kaiser in Woodland Hills,CA & specializes in breast reconstruction of cancer patients which is why I chose her to do my surgery.

Today I went for a consult with Dr Kim. She was recommended. I attended the reduction surgery class that Kaiser makes you attend. I did not feel Dr Kim explained how she would perform the surgery or was very forthcoming with information. She could not tell me what cup size I would be. How did you like her? Any advice or info appreciated?

Ok today makes 17 days post op and my girls are doing well. Still swollen, bruising is going away. I am still living in my surgical bras even when I sleep. My doctor told me I don't have to wear it at night but I feel better with it on.

The surgical tape has been falling off on its own and I noticed some rippling and visual tissue area. I started to "air them out" as my dr ordered. Anyone else have these issues? Also I noticed that my nipples don't look the same. Can you see what I'm talking about?
