Breast Reduction (looking for answers from those who know!)?

Currently, I am twenty-one years old (almost 22) and am considering scheduling an appointment to meet with my physician.I wonder if I'd be a candidate for breast reduction? I have back pain, my shoulders hurt (from the bra strap) and there are even indentations in my shoulders from the straps.What are you thoughts on such a procedure? Have you had it done? Do you know anyone? What your afterthoughts???


Answers:

I know you want answers from experience but my aunt and my sister in law both had theirs reduced. They couldn’t be happier. You have to ask your doctor what he/she thinks because they are the ones who make that call on if you should have the surgery done or not. My aunt went from and F cup to a DD and my sister in law a DD to a C and both of them have less back pain and no more shoulder strap marks. Hope this Helps!

India is the leading provider of healthcare to foreign nationals; be they from neighboring countries, lacking in facilities and standards, or from the West, circumventing waiting times, high cost private healthcare or private health insurance premiums. The Indian medical industry is now poised to move into a new area of "medical outsourcing," where it serves as an extension to provide services to the overburdened medical care systems in western countries.

There are numerous foreigners that are flying to India and desperate to do so. It is not to see the backwaters of Kerala or the beautiful beaches of Goa but to get much cheaper surgery in Indian Metros. It’s not just the cost that you should consider. You should look into the surgeons and the anesthetist’s credentials as well.

Important Points to Ask about the Surgeon and The Anesthetist who would be operating you-

What professional memberships, training and qualifications do they hold?
Have the surgeon and anesthetist worked together before?
Will the anesthetist perform a pre operative evaluation?
And a postoperative evaluation?
How much recovery time will the procedure entail?
How long will you be hospitalized?
How soon after the operation you can fly home?
Ask to see credentials and ‘before and after’ pictures.

I myself had the surgery 3 years ago. I had the same problems. The sores from the bra strap, the indentions on my shoulders and the back pain. I had to sleep sitting up or on my side. Laying flat was never an option. Beside the vain part of summer’s been horrible, from never being able to wear the cute bathing suits or the two pieces i had a hard time finding shirts that kept me cool. i am very happy i got the surgery, my self confidence got a great boost as well. And I went out and bought my first 2 pieces swimming suit when i healed. The healing time takes awhile. You have to wear a surgical bra for about a month and then you can only wear sports bras or bras without under wire. But trust me it is sooo worth it.

One of my best friends had the procedure done a few months ago (she was 18 at the time) after trying to lose weight for a year. She, too, had back pain and couldn't be happier about the results. It also made her appear skinnier and I’ve noticed her confidence has boosted as well.I think you would definitely benefit from at least scheduling an appointment. Good luck!
