Hello! While losing weight for health is a good idea in general, studies of patients with higher BMIs have shown that breast reduction for patients suffering with back and neck discomfort is still helpful, and can actually facilitate further weight loss as patients can exercise more easily with smaller breasts. Because of that, I would encourage you to seek breast reduction sooner than later, and simply continue to practice a healthy diet and exercise routine throughout the process.

Is 19 too early for a breast reduction/breast uplift?

Appropriate age for breast reduction
Feb 5, 2021

Breast reduction is one of the few “aesthetic” procedures that is acceptable to perform on patients under 18 years old. This is because large, heavy breasts create a lot of problems such back, neck and shoulder pain, difficulty fitting into clothes properly, and they can attract unwanted attention. Heavy, droopy breasts will almost always get worse over time, so fixing the issue early is usually a great option when possible. Make sure you find a highly qualified surgeon who demonstrates lot...

Breast Reduction without implants "tethering" question

Breast reduction techniques
Feb 5, 2021

Hi there- so if you are downsizing from a DD to an A cup, there will be a lot less tissue for gravity to work on so re-drooping won’t be much of an issue. If a superomedial pedicle technique is used (where the upper/middle breast tissue is maintained with the nipple connected and the excess lower and outer breast tissue is removed) the breast will be naturally fuller where it needs to be. I have performed over 1000 reductions and do not routinely fix the breast tissue to the underlying c...

Can perkiness be achieved on breast reduction revision? How much would need to be removed? (%)

Redo Breast Reduction
Feb 5, 2021

Hi! You absolutely have more room for improvement in your breasts as they still seem large for your frame and seem to have a fair degree of redrooping. I would recommend a full redo breast reduction with more tissue removal from the lower and outer breast and significant skin tightening which will allow revision of all your scars. Size can be determined by showing photos of what you like proportion-wise based on other breast reduction surgery photos (see my photo gallery as an example)....

Am I a good candidate for a breast reduction and with my info would you consider I should do so?

You are certainly a candidate for reduction!
Feb 5, 2021

If you have large breasts (DDD would definitely fit that!) and are having back, neck or shoulder issues, a breast reduction will significantly relieve or eliminate those issues. As you get older, the problems often worsen, so I would recommend looking into surgery sooner than later as my older patients who have this feel so much better and almost always wonder why they didn’t do it sooner!

Breast Auto-Augmentation with fat transfer?

Breast lift with fat grafting
Sep 1, 2020

Combining upper pole fat grafting with breast lift surgery is a very common way to create the best possible result without the use of an implant. I would suggest that the best surgical option would be a one stage technique. To avoid asymmetry, the breasts are lifted first and the larger breast is reduced to match the size of the smaller breast. After this, an even amount of fat is injected into each breast. In my opinion, this is the most effective and efficient way to perform the surgery...

Is this type of deformity a year after explant treatable with a fat transfer?

Fat grafting for breast irregularities.
Sep 1, 2020

Based on your photos, it appears you have underlying scar tissue that is tethered to the skin and becomes tighter / worse with arm elevation. Fat grafting would likely soften some of these issues, and if combined with a breast lift you would likely get an even more powerful correction. Trying to soften the scar tissue with stretching and steroid injections could be potentially helpful as well, but obviously any recommendations would need to be verified with an in-person exam. Hopefully this...

Breast proportion for breast reduction surgery
Sep 1, 2020

There is not one right answer for what is proportionate, and patients will have a wide range of what they find attractive and aesthetic with regards to breast size. Some patients prefer to remain on the fuller side while others wish to be as small as possible. You should look through a lot of surgical photo gallery pictures to give your surgeon a sense of what looks good to you personally. Also, keep in mind that the smaller you go, the more weight reduction and back / neck pain symptom...

Candidate for breast reduction
Sep 1, 2020

Based on your physical symptoms and aesthetic concerns, you are absolutely a candidate for breast reduction surgery. Obviously you would also have to be medically stable for surgery, but assuming you are healthy, a breast reduction is an excellent surgery to improve physical wellbeing and body aesthetics at the same time! Best, -RC

Will I be able to breastfeed with the anchor incision?

Breast feeling after breast reduction
Sep 1, 2020

The skin excision (lollipop vs anchor scar) will have no impact on breast feeding as this is just what is going on at the surface level above the breast tissue. The deeper tissue resection is what can affect breast feeding. While it is true that a reduction can impact breast feeding, if performed properly it should not have a major impact if the nipples, mild ducts, and immediate underlying breast tissue are left intact and connected. With a superomedial pedicle technique is used (leaving...

Communication issues
Sep 1, 2020

Breast reduction is a very customized surgery, and every body type will have a significant range of sizes that can be proportionate depending on what the patient’s personal goals are. Some reduction patients prefer to be as small as possible for maximum weight reduction, while others wish to maintain a fuller breast size for their personal aesthetic reasons. If you feel your surgeon has a “one size fits all” mentality, or doesn’t really explore what your personal aesthetic / goals are, I ...

i would love to remove my 14 years old implant under local anesthesia. Is there an increased risk for

Explant under local
Sep 1, 2020

Removal of implants under local anesthesia is generally a very safe and simple procedure with a low infection risk if performed properly. There are some limitations with this option however. If implants are textured and adherent to the tissue (not that common) the implant removal could be uncomfortable under local only. Also, this approach would not allow for capsulectomies, a breast lift, or true revision work. If you wanted that you would need a higher level of anesthesia, so removal...

Explant and Breast Fat Transfer - one procedure or two?

Explant with fat grafting- 1 vs 2 stage repair
Sep 1, 2020

Hi! Based on your story, it sounds like a capsulectomy will likely be needed if you have capsular contracture. Although it is nice to have the anterior capsule to sandwich the fat grafting between the skin and the capsule, it is still very possible to fat graft without the capsule, especially if you have a decent amount of soft tissue under the skin. I would generally recommend a one stage explant, capsulectomy (if needed) and fat grafting, understanding that the amount of fat that will be...

Wanting to remove implants. How can my previous shape be corrected without implants?

Explant with tuberous breasts
Sep 1, 2020

It appears that your last surgery did not fully account for your tuberous breasts as the natural breast tissue was not blended well with the implants, causing an unnatural appearance that you pointed out in your question. I think that if the implants were removed and a full breast lift was performed (preferably with fat grafting as well) you could achieve a much more unified and natural appearing breast appearance. The biggest trade offs you would need to accept would be a smaller overall...

If implants are causing horrible pain, will a doctor remove them even if breastfeeding 20 month old on

Explant while breastfeeding
Sep 1, 2020

Performing a definitive repair (capsulectomy, lift, fat grafting, etc.) would not be a good idea while you are actively breastfeeding as your breasts are not in a stable state currently. That said, if your implants are causing discomfort and excess pressure on the tissues, they could be removed (with the pockets washed out at the same time) under local anesthesia for now, with the full repair performed later when breastfeeding is complete. This would reduce / eliminate potential biofilm...
