A member asked:
Is it okay to get second opinion from another doctor whether it is okay to get a breast reduction?

Sure. Why not?: Breast reduction is performed for both medical (back pain etc from gigantomastia) to aesthetic reasons. You should get as many evaluations as it takes to make you feel secure (or not) that you are doing the right surgery (either reduction mastopexy with or without augmentation) or liposcupting) with the right doc for the right reason at this time in your life.
