Thanks for your question. Breast reduction is definitely one of the most satisfying procedures for patients. This is often tricky to estimate the amount of gland that will be removed, even during a consultation in person. It sounds as though you are perfect candidate for breast reduction based on your size and symptoms. The first decision is to decide how much breast tissue must be left behind to assure adequate blood supply to the nipple areolar complex. Once this is established the intended resection can be estimated. Often this is about 25% ballpark of the breast volume. Insurance companies often have a very arbitrary mass that they deem medically necessary. In my experience it is very uncommon to make someone too small, but I can appreciate your concern. Discuss this with your surgeon and hopefully it will give you peace of mind. Best of Luck!

Sounds like you would be a great candidate for a breast reduction. The symptoms you are describing can definitely be attributable to your breasts that are disproportionately large for your frame. PCOD can definitely adversely affect things and sounds like you are in good hands. Weight loss is a great first step and might even start to relieve some of the stress. You should see a plastic surgeon listed in the Smart Beauty Guide to examine you and give you a more definitive recommendation. Best of Luck!

I had silicone implants 10 years ago, can I have a lift without replacing the implants?

Asked 2015-09-29

I had silicone implants 10 years ago, can I have a lift without replacing the implants? I am 66 yrs young, small frame, athletic, 32DD.

Yes! As long as the implants are in good shape and in good position a lift can be done. You would need an exam and consultation to see what was best for you. One major issue is preserving the blood flow to the nipple areolar complex. The Smart Beauty Guide should help you to find someone in your area that is an expert in cosmetic breast surgery. Best of Luck!
