Question 1

how do i get rid of adhesions from breast reduction?

Accepted Answer

Not sure: I am not sure what you mean by “adhesions”;  instead of guessing,  i would suggest that you follow-up with your plastic surgeon or seek consultation with other board certified plastic surgeons for better advice than you will be able to receive online.
 Best wishes.

Question 2

i had a breast reduction surgery and i am exactly one week post op. is it safe for me to masturbate? or when will it be safe for me to? im scared of getting a hematoma?

Accepted Answer

: The surgical wounds should be organized well after one week. I do not see any problem with any sexual activity at this point if there is no direct impact to the wounds.

Question 3

can getting a breast reduction prevent me from breast feeding in the future?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Most patients who have a breast reduction are unable to breast feed.   Roughly 33-45% of patients may be able to.

Question 4

might getting a breast reduction prevent me from breast feeding in the future?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: This can depend somewhat on the approach taken but usually creates problems with breast feeding. Any significant reduction will disrupt some  of the natural channels and relocation of the nipple/areola complex further alters the system unfortunately, you can go bigger with less effect on breast feeding than going smaller, but either way it can limit success.

Question 5

i have a small breast size. need to lose hip weight. will exercising with out bra help prevent breast reduction?

Accepted Answer

Breast sz &amp; wt loss: It will not.  Exercising will help you lose weight.  To specifically target weight loss to certain areas (ie just my hips) is not really possible with exercise.  Be happy with how you are.  Exercising and losing weight is great.  Your breast size is your breast size.  Celebrate and enjoy who you are.  Remember YOU ARE UNIQUE.  There is no one on the planet like you. Be proud and happy with you!

Question 6

if large breasts run in my family and mine are already very large, can i get a breast reduction surgery, i am 16?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Although surgeons prefer to wait until all growth is complete, if you have very large breasts and the appropriate symptoms (back pain, bra grooving, etc) reduction may be an option. However, breast reduction in teenagers is associated with a higher incidence of recurrent breast enlargement. That can require another surgery later. It will also probably decrease your ability to breast feed.

Question 7

are there limitations on how small the breast can be made during a breast reduction surgery? i have extremely large breasts and i want to get down to an a cup.  can breast reduction surgery make my breasts this small?

Accepted Answer

Any : Any smaller size is possible, but the risks and the benefits of the procedure need to be well understood before proceeding. Some parts of the breast reduction are not reversible.

Question 8

my little sister has really large (size h breasts) is there a way to get her free breast reduction?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: If she has insurance it would have to be preapprovred. If she doesn't then the options are limited, there may be a state insurance option. Her primary md could possibly help her. Is your sister interested in this procedure?

Question 9

am a man & i have big man breast how can i get rid of them?

Accepted Answer

Options: Weight loss is the first line but can also be treated surgically

good luck.
