A teacher in her early 20’s who describes herself as a 36 H cup and has problems with back pain, shoulder pain, grooving and irritation of her shoulders form the bra straps, as well as difficulties with her posture. She is over her ideal body weight at 226 lbs and 5’4” but is finds it difficult to lose weight because of difficulty exercising due to the size of her breasts.
She is shown before and again, 5 ½ months after bilateral breast reduction with the removal of 1852 grams of weight from her left breast and 1776 grams of weight from her right breast. A pound is 454 grams so that is just over 8 pounds of tissue!
She is thrilled with her new shape and size, and her symptoms have resolved. We decided upon a full C so that her breasts may still be proportional when she loses more weight. Her scars typically will continue to fade and improve over the next 18 months or longer.
