Breast Reductions

[misslideaway]

Has anyone been through one/ Know someone who has.  I've decided to go under the knife myself and would appreciate any advice/ good websites/ info on healing times/ feedback etc.  Anything basically.  It all helps.  Many Thanks  :-))

I don't know anything at all about the procedure, but I had a friend who had a breast reduction, and she was so happy that she had it done, no more back aches for her!

[silly moo]

I know 2 people who had this done, 1 recently and 1 some yrs ago.
Both done at same hospital.
Both very happy to start with, the first is now just as large as before so it was a bit of a waste of NHS cash really.

My friend's daughter had a breast reduction two years ago. She used to suffer from chronic back & shoulder pain & felt that men used to 'talk' to her large breasts, rather than her!

Since getting over the operation - which was obviously uncomfortable for a time - she says she has never felt better. She said she no longer suffers with back or shoulder pain & is over the moon with her new look.

The last time I saw her, she was wearing a fitted top, something she would never have worn before.

P.S. She had the op under the NHS, as it was for medical reasons rather than cosmetic.

I knew a girl i used to work with who went to have one as she too suffered with a bad back etc. The last time i saw her she couldn't have been much happier with herself. So if its for the right reasons do it definitely! Good luck!

I dont know all that much about the procedure either but my Aunties had it done she went from a 34H to a 34DD and shes ecstatic with the results her whole life has changed because of the op. Im not to sure about the healing time but i know she wasnt in much pain after the surgery just a little tender and that went in a couple of weeks. soz cant be more of help :)

well i just saw one on cosmetic surgery live (or something like that) on channel 5 - and i can tell you it was very grim to watch. very very very - mostly all fat - so you have to be careful not to put on weight or they will just grow back apparently.
