I’m two days post op and it’s honestly the best decision I made!! Girls, if your thinking of doing this and are scared or just unsure DO IT! So worth it🥳❤️❤️. You look amazing😍
@Yeait’s fashomeeh omg it's been GREAT!!! I didn't have any drains and I didn't have to have a breathing tube either (every TH-cam video I watched had both so I was pleasantly shocked 😅). My Dr said im a D but everyone says I'm a B/C. Recovery wasn't as bad as I was thinking AT ALL completely bearable for me. And my scars looked great at 2 weeks 😍 I just hit 30 days on Saturday (Jan 22nd) and I'm able to reach, bounce, etc. My incisions are still healing below the surface but I'm almost back to myself again. Planning to post a video on it soon if you're interested! Thanks for asking 🥰
@@ii_treee definitely going to subscribe right now. Im in my beginning stage to getting the ball rolling. Today is the day I go to the cosmetic surgeon so they can check me out. Im going through my insurance. Did you go through insurance also ?
Girl you are sooooo ME!!! To the bonnet on the bed & water on the nightstand. House cleaning & prep work is on point!!! I did the exact same when I had both my kids. House cleaned, bed made w/fresh sheets, fridge stocked & pre made meals in freezer. I plan ahead for EVERYTHING!!!
I have had DD/DDD breasts for most of my adult life and am starting the process of investigating breast reduction now. I am actually thinking of getting the surgery around a year from now, but I think it's good to get the process started early because of how long it may take to get approval etc. (like you said). Glad you had such a good result!
Hope it works out for you. I heard it costs anywhere from $10000-30000 depending where you live. Just whatever you do do it for you especially if you have back problems, shoulder pain, neck pain, etc. Don't do it for or because of other people. But before you get surgery look up nonsurgical alternatives like diet, exercises designed for the breasts, etc. And see if they work. Personally, I would rather have surgery of any kind as a last resort if diet, exercises,etc. Alone aren't doing the trick. Some things work for some women but not others so find what works best for you.
I know I’m months behind but this video is literally what I needed. I’ve had so much hesitation about doing this, but as a short petite girl myself with D cups (honestly don’t even know anymore I gave up after my last bra got tight lol) I’m so ready to go on this journey. I’m so happy for you and again, thank you for sharing! :)
I wish you the best. Make sure you have good insurance to cover it since it can cost $10000-30000 depending on where you live. In the meantime, look for nonsurgical alternatives like diet, exercises designed to lose fat in the breasts, etc and see if they work. Just whatever you do, don't do it for or because of other people. Do it for you. Definitely also research the consequences as well as the results of surgery too and weigh them. I wish you well. Hope things work out.
My surgery is in a month and I’m just up late watching some videos to calm my anxiety. And I just wanted to say that when I found this video I was so excited because I felt like I finally found someone to relate with on pretty much everything, I am also going from a DDD/F to a D and also 5’2 and getting the anchor procedure. I am so happy to have found someone that I could actually relate to so well. I am so glad you had a good experience!
Getting my reduction from F to C in 11 days, plus a very large lipoma off my back. Nervous but excited. I’m 52, and have developed a curve in my spine, plus basically arthritis, there’s fancy names for all of that, but I keep it simple! 😌 I’ve almost backed out twice, but when I wake up with my breast weighing on my throat and cutting off my air, or the fire that comes without explanation in my right side breast, plus the other 50 symptoms, I am pushing ahead! I look forward to being able to breathe and move better.
Thank you so much for sharing! I'm DD to DDD myself and sometimes even F and I know the drill. I'm much taller than you so it doesn't look too big or out of place, but what's killing me is that they are so low oh gosh and I've been thinking about breast reduction maybe after I will have a few kids because I know they will go even lower lol. So happy for you dear, you did the right decision!
I’m on a binge because I finally decided to go through with it. I just got news my insurance is covering it😢 I’m scheduled for December 6. Everything you said especially the mental toll!
I’m only 19 and I’m an F cup. My mom and I have been thinking about me getting a reduction, but we’re still not sure if that’s too early for me or if it’d be worth it since they’ll get bigger if I ever want a baby. I’m unsure, but I learned a lot from your video. Thank you!
OKAY 1. YOURE AN ARMY??? 🥹🥹🥹 ME TOO, 2. I’m the same actually, I’m 19 and I’m an I cup, so we made an appointment for my primary doctor to see what she has to say and go from there, I don’t think I would want kids so I’m not rlly worried about that department but any update for you??
Ty for sharing. I'm scared as heck to get mine done but after 3 kids it's just too much to deal with! I understand the posture and the indentation dron wearing bras. You look amazing 🥰
Its crazy how its almost 4am and I have been watching random videos on this topic, everyone truly has a different experience and i cant wait to vlog mine! The different scenarios help so much on things you can expect that may just be 100% normal. I am scheduled to get my breast reduction on 09/30/22 and i could not be happier to go from a K cup down to a C! This was such a great video thank you for all the info!
Thank you so much for posting this! I’ve also had trouble finding literally anything with someone’s pre and post operation experience. This video solidified my excitement for my surgery! Thank you!!
We have the same exact story lol 😭 when God finally gave me them i wasn’t having it . I get mine done in 4 weeks lol I’m so nervous yet excited! So happy i was able to watch your video 💚 .
1 week until my breast reduction, I'm 16 and I've been wanting one so badly since I was 13. Honestly I'm excited for it because I've always been so uncomfortable in my own body mainly due to my breasts and maybe that will change after surgery !!
Thanks for this video. I’m about to start the process to get a reduction. I too was flat chested in 5th grade. Prayed for boobs and I was “blessed” with a C cup in 6th grade literally grew over the summer. Now I’m in a H or I cup depending on the type of bra, I’m 5’1 & 140 lbs…I’m tired of all the problems. Ready to get them cut down.
Girly one of the most impart thing you said was you had surgical glue ? And it helped your scars heal faster , did you NOT get any stitches at all ? Is that something anyone who gets a breast reduction can get only surgical glue and not stitches so you won’t scar too much Becuase your scar really did heal beautifully hope you respond to all who are so fused about surgical glue as you mentioned almost at the end of your video 😢
thank you soooo much for documenting this. As someone with a smaller frame and always having DD or DDD/Fs I am just tired of the back pain, finding bras and clothes. I too, am worried about the scaring but the ability to be able to run again in a normal sports bra and not slouch, etc is going to outweigh the surgery for me.
I’m 5’7 with G’s and I really want to get a reduction down to maybe a D or C. I have a wide ribcage and shoulders so I’m a little unsure of how small I’d be able to go without it looking too small. Thank you for this video. It’s so helpful.
Congrats on getting the procedure Glory! I am almost 2 weeks out from my own breast reduction surgery. I'm healing well and feel better-having mine reduced! I went from a DD to B. I'm petite and they felt like I was carrying watermelons around all the time. I'm looking forward to being more active carrying a lighter load. Glad you are doing well and have a new lease on life. I'm on my way with the same I hope! Take care :) (from Nor. CA)
This is the first time I've ever seen the scar tissue after surgery on darker skin!! Thank you so much!! I'll definitely pursue this after my masters!!!
You are the only G that I know of that will be going down to a D. They is what I did. Most want to go to a B or a C. I thought I would be in shock if I did that.
Hello, I had breast reduction in 2013 . My size was a double DD and the indentation on my shoulders. Honestly my surgery was good I really wasn’t in a lots of pain. One of my breast is still bigger than the other I will not be correcting it because I never go without a bra lol. I am a little bigger after surgery,.between a B AND C CUP.. I was also told I probably wouldn’t have any feeling in my nipple.I did not experience that but what I will say I wear nipple covers because my nipples are always poking forward . Yes, my insurance paid for it, first time it was denied and the dr called back within a week and stated it was approved and I call my insurance and they stated it was approved and I had so many days to have the surgery.before it went in default. TFS AND CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR JOURNEY.😊
Hi which insurance do you have please? I can’t afford to pay out of pocket, but I’m tired of the back pain, indentation, limits with tops & dresses, the emotional & mental toll etc. I sometimes feel embarrassed about how big they are. I’m a 38G (DDDD) & I just want to cut them off 😢
@@msbarbhenry Hi , BLUE CROSS BLUE SHIELD OF TENNESSEE. Most insurance now are paying for more things than before because it’s not considered cosmetic surgery. Call your insurance and see what their guidelines are. I understand your struggle been there. Get with your doctor and tell him or her your issues and have him or her to write out that information, have your doctor to back that information up etc, your struggles, back aches,difficult finding a bra that supports your breasts once you do all that then look for a doctor that does breast reduction do your research. If you have any other ??? If I can help you with moving forward I’m here. Because what happens is most insurance will check with your doctor. Also ,sometimes they will deny you and the doctor will go back and re write it using different codes to get it approved. May you be blessed💕😊 let me know how you come out.
girlll i have my surgery in 17 days 🥺 i’m so excited ! thank you for sharing. I really relate to you! I am currently the same size you were before and i will be going down to what you are now! I appreciate this video
I came here for information about the surgery because I’m planning on get one soon but now I’m obsessed with your beautiful hair, after I’m done with this video I’m gonna go and check your hair videos for some tips
Getting mine done Feb 3! I’m super scared but really appreciate your transparency and detail ❤️. I’m around a DD and trying to go for a C, as I have unevenness from a lumpectomy in 2017. We got approved by insurance Jan 10! Thank you 🥺❤️
I'm a DD and my surgery is scheduled for 08/28/22, could you tell me if you managed to get a C cup or are they smaller than expected? That's my only concern currently
I am one month post op and I'm most healed except for the nipples which are quite sore. Just praying for full healing. I was a k and like you I'm 5 feet 2 inches. The breasts were all the way to my waist. I'm so happy with the size now I think I'm now a "d".
OMG I am so glad I found your video. I just got approved and is due to get my surgery September 1st. I'm also 5 feet 2 inches and a DDD or larger (I just stopped getting sized). I been heavy chested since about 6th grade as well. Not sure how small I want to be though. I've had surgery once but also afraid of surgery but just couldn't take it anymore. Inventions in my shoulders, pain in my neck and arms. I'm also a side sleeper so your video was so helpful ❤❤
Omg, we are the same lol. I literally was teased for nothing having boobs, I prayed for them, and now I’m a DDD/F. The bras barely fit and are expensive. And everything you mentioned I have felt and experienced. I’m in the process of getting the surgery and this helped. Thank you!
Thank you so much for making this video. My daughter is having her surgery in 2 days. You made me feel so much better! Now I know what to expect when taking care of her. She's 17 4' 10" 130 and a FF we are nervous but excited. Thanks again and you look great!
Good luck to your daughter. I had mine on 4/5/23 honestly I was in pain the day after. It was only uncomfortable getting in and out of bed for 2 days. I took the pain mess 2 days and used over the counter meds. I have been binge watching alot of these videos and in my opinion the pain is not that severe. I was up and walking the same day and returned to working driving on 4/7. I Dont recommend over doing it however my daughter had a breast reduction at 18 two years ago and was up and out on the 5th day. I pray tour daughter’s surgery is a sucess. I went from a 38dd to most likey now a b or c cup. My plastic surgeon said he went as small as he could. I removed my sutures and I am so happy.
Came across your video because I was looking into what to expect. I related to your story because middle school I was teased so bad aswell, The summer after 8th grade I grew and I don't know what size I was but it was noticeable. I end seeing my bully while I was out and smiled and wave to me. its was creepy. Anyway now at 32 I amm a 34M. I am10 days away from my reduction and I can't wait. Ty for sharing
An M😰🫣girl when they say don’t complain because someone out there has it worse than you, they did not lie. I pray you get yours and insurance pays for the whole thing and your doc does an amazing job and you get some relief girl. Phew😮💨God bless you girl
I hope you find something that works for you. I know b.r. costs anywhere from $10000-$30000 so in case you don't have insurance to cover that or can't afford it, there are exercises like certain yoga positions designed to reduce fat in the breasts so you may want to look up exercises to reduce breast fat. Also there are certain things like birth control pills or anything else containing estrogen so you may want to avoid those as well as certain foods known to increase breast size once eaten. Surgery is tear yourself apart and putting you back together and can be risky so if there are alternatives to that do those before surgery. If they don't work, then surgery should be done as a last resort. Wish you well in what you do.
I approciate this video so much. I'm currently getting my weight managed so I can start the process to get my own breast reduction and this and other videos really make me feel more prepared and at ease about the process. I'm currently a G-H and I expect if I can drop my weight I'll be back to an F, but I'm so ready to be done with them.
I have G cups and it's honestly hell. I'm so excited to start this journey, going to my first appointment in 10 days! Thank you for making this video and sharing your experience!
I had my done in Lancaster Pennsylvania. Apparently it only took 40 minutes. My doctor was super fast but very efficient. I feel good I’m only two days postop… minimal pain no JP drains, still swollen, but I’m not draining as much as I expected to. They gave me IV anabiotic’s pre-surgery and antibiotics immediately post surgery for seven days. I feel good, but stiff and I’m moving around and I’m very grateful.
You have been very helpful explaining the breast reduction surgery after the surgery thank you a million times actually I got the same date you have for consultation August
Getting my surgery soon , watching your videos made my anxiety a bit better ! Can we have a update for how your scars look today/ how you are feeling post opp
I have been wanting to have a brest reduction for thirty years. I am 5'2 and weigh 110 pounds. I am a 34 F. I was fully developed by age 15. I am now 70 years of age and have severe neck and back problems. At this time in my life, it's about comfort and quality of life. I'm very active in sports and would love to have a reduction. Thank you for your video. You have given me the courage to go forward. Thank you again!
I'm 75 and day 6 post op for an explant and lift. I am also 5'2" but weigh about 157. Recovery is going well but still in the ugly stage from the mastopexy anchor lift. I do like being small and free of the implants. Tops look much nicer ..still wearing surgical bra and drains.
I’m having my appointment soon to discuss the possibility of getting a reduction I hope to get approved!!!! Been wanting this forever. I’m so happy for you
I would love to know when the pain stops…. I got my reduction/lift and Lipo done on 2/17 and I am still in pain- and extremely Irritated with sleeping on my back. I had no infection or oozing but the itching has started. Grrrrrr…. My sides and the nipple area feels overly sensitive.
Thank u for being so honest cuz I’m a G and want to b a C. I am also a stomach sleeper. I’m scared to go thru with it but given I’m 44, I feel it’s time.
I'm getting my on June 2nd 2022. I'm so excited but I wanna try and lose 10 pounds beforehand and make sure my body is prepared. I'm between a H and a I CUP. I wanna be a D cup.
Also, maybe you just made the comment “be careful what you pray for” in jest. God isn’t a trickster; you were just a young girl💓. You won’t have to say just to ‘perfect’ words to impress God. You are precious ❤️
You’re so brave! Thank god you had an amazing support system & your surgery went well 🙏🏽 I can’t imagine the struggle women go through with such a huge weight on your breasts thanks for sharing it’s going to help many others. For your next video I’m curious since I have a 1 year old and am currently pregnant, do you know how things will be when someone who has had the surgery becomes pregnant?
Hello Glory! It's great to connect with you. I came across your TH-cam video on Breast Reduction since I am also a size 42’DDD. I can relate to your experience. I feel confident about addressing this issue, so I plan to reach out to my doctor to see if I can get approval from my insurance company.
I have the same problems for everything like down to the height and breast size. I’m definitely thinking abt doing this but i’m 17 rn and still in high school so i still have to wait 🥲 my only question tho is how much does it cost to have the surgery?
Girl why did i have the same experience . I got teased in elementary, i went home in like 4-5th grade & started to squeeze my chest “to make em grow “ . I swear when 6th grade came i was in a C cup & never stopped growing now I’m DDD. I get my surgery on Thursday.
I’m two days post op and it’s honestly the best decision I made!! Girls, if your thinking of doing this and are scared or just unsure DO IT! So worth it🥳❤️❤️. You look amazing😍
Thank you SO much for sharing this! I’m having this done on 6/21/22. I absolutely cannot wait! I appreciate you sharing your journey. ❤️
@@christenbrawley686 No problem!! I’m telling you, you’re going to feel like a brand new person🤩. Wishing you a safe surgery & speedy recovery! ❤️

If you have any other ??? If I can help you with moving forward I’m here. Because what happens is most insurance will check with your doctor. Also ,sometimes they will deny you and the doctor will go back and re write it using different codes to get it approved. May you be blessed💕😊 let me know how you come out.
"be careful what you wish for" LOL omg I feel this. thank you for sharing your journey, I'm considering getting this done too thank you!

You’re a warrior! 🙏🏻😘 love you girl! 💖

Getting mine done on the 3rd too .. can’t wait to see the results but I am still tensed anyways
@@123hargy TWINS
You ready for tomorrow?? All the best!!
@@123hargy I’m nervous but excited!! You?
I'm a DD and my surgery is scheduled for 08/28/22, could you tell me if you managed to get a C cup or are they smaller than expected? That's my only concern currently
I am one month post op and I'm most healed except for the nipples which are quite sore. Just praying for full healing. I was a k and like you I'm 5 feet 2 inches. The breasts were all the way to my waist. I'm so happy with the size now I think I'm now a "d".
OMG I am so glad I found your video. I just got approved and is due to get my surgery September 1st. I'm also 5 feet 2 inches and a DDD or larger (I just stopped getting sized). I been heavy chested since about 6th grade as well. Not sure how small I want to be though. I've had surgery once but also afraid of surgery but just couldn't take it anymore. Inventions in my shoulders, pain in my neck and arms. I'm also a side sleeper so your video was so helpful ❤❤
So glad this video helped! Congratulations on getting approved, praying everything goes perfect for you & you have a speedy recovery!!
I literally went through the same thing that you did as a child! I prayed too and he gave me exactly what I asked for too!!
I literally got to your comment and her statement at the same time lol I prayed for them also lol and now I’m like no thank you God smh
Omg, we are the same lol. I literally was teased for nothing having boobs, I prayed for them, and now I’m a DDD/F. The bras barely fit and are expensive. And everything you mentioned I have felt and experienced. I’m in the process of getting the surgery and this helped. Thank you!
I'm a DDD it sucks tbh... got my first doctors appt in 2 months and I'm so excited! When do you go in?
Thank you so much for making this video. My daughter is having her surgery in 2 days. You made me feel so much better! Now I know what to expect when taking care of her. She's 17 4' 10" 130 and a FF we are nervous but excited. Thanks again and you look great!
Good luck to your daughter. I had mine on 4/5/23 honestly I was in pain the day after. It was only uncomfortable getting in and out of bed for 2 days. I took the pain mess 2 days and used over the counter meds. I have been binge watching alot of these videos and in my opinion the pain is not that severe. I was up and walking the same day and returned to working driving on 4/7. I Dont recommend over doing it however my daughter had a breast reduction at 18 two years ago and was up and out on the 5th day. I pray tour daughter’s surgery is a sucess. I went from a 38dd to most likey now a b or c cup. My plastic surgeon said he went as small as he could. I removed my sutures and I am so happy.
I am scheduled for Dec 16 so I'm binge-watching everyone's reactions and your video is the best one yet!
My surgery is tomorrow. I’m literally shaking in my boots as I’ll be alone at home for the first 3 days. 😮😮 you look amazing.
Honestly I’m scared of dying while I’m under anesthesia or waking up mid procedure. I am a 40 J and I want to be a triple d. I’m just really scared 🥲🥲
Will be praying for you hun trust God🙏🏼
My reduction is tomorrow and this is all I think about. Iv had so much anxiety about this right here!!!!
@@brewilliams9153 awww I’m sure you will be totally fine . How did you go btw
@@brewilliams9153 how was it? Hope you’re well
Same!
Came across your video because I was looking into what to expect. I related to your story because middle school I was teased so bad aswell, The summer after 8th grade I grew and I don't know what size I was but it was noticeable. I end seeing my bully while I was out and smiled and wave to me. its was creepy. Anyway now at 32 I amm a 34M. I am10 days away from my reduction and I can't wait. Ty for sharing
An M😰🫣girl when they say don’t complain because someone out there has it worse than you, they did not lie. I pray you get yours and insurance pays for the whole thing and your doc does an amazing job and you get some relief girl. Phew😮💨God bless you girl
Thank you for this. I am scheduled for mines next month. You have provided clear and precise information!😍🥰
Thank you so much for all the useful and detailed information. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
So helpful! I am 5’2 ddd/f and researching for myself to maybe get a reduction!
I hope you find something that works for you. I know b.r. costs anywhere from $10000-$30000 so in case you don't have insurance to cover that or can't afford it, there are exercises like certain yoga positions designed to reduce fat in the breasts so you may want to look up exercises to reduce breast fat. Also there are certain things like birth control pills or anything else containing estrogen so you may want to avoid those as well as certain foods known to increase breast size once eaten. Surgery is tear yourself apart and putting you back together and can be risky so if there are alternatives to that do those before surgery. If they don't work, then surgery should be done as a last resort. Wish you well in what you do.
I approciate this video so much. I'm currently getting my weight managed so I can start the process to get my own breast reduction and this and other videos really make me feel more prepared and at ease about the process. I'm currently a G-H and I expect if I can drop my weight I'll be back to an F, but I'm so ready to be done with them.
Thanks so much for sharing. I am so happy everything went well with your surgery and that you had a great recovery. Sending many blessings your way.🙏😘
I have G cups and it's honestly hell. I'm so excited to start this journey, going to my first appointment in 10 days! Thank you for making this video and sharing your experience!
I’m getting mine in 9 days!!
@@LandLstudios Yay so exciting!!
I’m day 2 post op G cup to large C cup. They took 900 grams from each breast. My pain is minimum and manageable. Very swollen. Already so happy
@@mariewood8372 Omg I'm so excited for that to be me!!
just had to say... i LOVE your hair!!!
Ah! My surgery is tomorrow. I'm so excited and nervous! We are the same size and height. This is so helpful!
Just got mine done on Tuesday. So far things are going great.😊
@@LifeAfter50withTerree I feel good today. Just sore.
You really got ready! I was not that prepared. Thanks for having having vlogged about your experience.
I had my done in Lancaster Pennsylvania. Apparently it only took 40 minutes. My doctor was super fast but very efficient. I feel good I’m only two days postop… minimal pain no JP drains, still swollen, but I’m not draining as much as I expected to. They gave me IV anabiotic’s pre-surgery and antibiotics immediately post surgery for seven days. I feel good, but stiff and I’m moving around and I’m very grateful.
Thanks for the info. I’m having mine done next month. Can’t wait
You have been very helpful explaining the breast reduction surgery after the surgery thank you a million times actually I got the same date you have for consultation August
Getting my surgery soon , watching your videos made my anxiety a bit better ! Can we have a update for how your scars look today/ how you are feeling post opp
I have been wanting to have a brest reduction for thirty years.
I am 5'2 and weigh 110 pounds. I am a 34 F. I was fully developed by age 15. I am now 70 years of age and have severe neck and back problems. At this time in my life, it's about comfort and quality of life. I'm very active in sports and would love to have a reduction.
Thank you for your video. You have given me the courage to go forward.
Thank you again!
I'm 75 and day 6 post op for an explant and lift. I am also 5'2" but weigh about 157. Recovery is going well but still in the ugly stage from the mastopexy anchor lift. I do like being small and free of the implants. Tops look much nicer ..still wearing surgical bra and drains.
I'm getting mine tm and I'm so nervous
I’m so happy to see you had it in Pa . I’m from pa and was looking for a dr !
I’m having my appointment soon to discuss the possibility of getting a reduction I hope to get approved!!!! Been wanting this forever. I’m so happy for you
Did you go to have the talk with your dr yet ?
I would love to know when the pain stops…. I got my reduction/lift and Lipo done on 2/17 and I am still in pain- and extremely
Irritated with sleeping on my back. I had no infection or oozing but the itching has started. Grrrrrr…. My sides and the nipple area feels overly sensitive.
My appointment March 20 th 🎉 I’m super excited
I'm getting mine Feb 3rd I'm scared I just want to feel comfortable. I just hope the results are good.
Happy too see u back xx 😘
Thank u for being so honest cuz I’m a G and want to b a C. I am also a stomach sleeper. I’m scared to go thru with it but given I’m 44, I feel it’s time.
I just got mine scheduled for March and I’m super excited but nervous so thank you for sharing!!
Me too 3/9
Getting mine next week! Nervous but excited!!!
I'm getting my on June 2nd 2022. I'm so excited but I wanna try and lose 10 pounds beforehand and make sure my body is prepared. I'm between a H and a I CUP. I wanna be a D cup.
Thank you for being this humble... God bless us 🙌
Thank you for this! My surgery is in a month and this is super helpful.
Hi , What is your experience? Because my freind is planning
Thank you for making this video girl I’m the same size and I’m tired of the back pain 🥺
Also, maybe you just made the comment “be careful what you pray for” in jest. God isn’t a trickster; you were just a young girl💓. You won’t have to say just to ‘perfect’ words to impress God.
You are precious ❤️
You’re so brave! Thank god you had an amazing support system & your surgery went well 🙏🏽 I can’t imagine the struggle women go through with such a huge weight on your breasts thanks for sharing it’s going to help many others. For your next video I’m curious since I have a 1 year old and am currently pregnant, do you know how things will be when someone who has had the surgery becomes pregnant?
I’m a DDD and would love to be a C cup! Congratulations
Thank you so much! ♥️
I am a DD/DDD thank you for this video!
Were you allowed to keep your piercings in during surgery? I have loads I don’t wanna / can’t take out! X
I’d love to see updates and hear how you are. Sending hugs x
Do they reposition the nipple higher during surgery???????????
Your hair is so pretty and so are you
Thank you so much lovely 🥺❤️
Good for you doing something proactive for your well-being!
thank you so much 💕🥰
Thank you for sharing your experience!
Hello Glory! It's great to connect with you. I came across your TH-cam video on Breast Reduction since I am also a size 42’DDD. I can relate to your experience. I feel confident about addressing this issue, so I plan to reach out to my doctor to see if I can get approval from my insurance company.
just now seeing this vid! I get a breast reduction 2 weeks after my 21st bday. I'm a 42DDD and I just need them smaller and can't wait!
I got mines week ago. I'm so sore and tender. Question my doctor took my tape off. Did u used scar tape
I just got mine a few days ago. Went from a GG/H to hopefully a C/D. My chest feels so small. Trying to mentally get through it.
Thank you for sharing this! Really helpful and encouraging
This video was so perfect! Thank you!
Girl I know what u I’m a 48 I I’m ready for these sand bags to be gone.😁
That’s whT I call mine🤣
Thank you for sharing your journey 💕
I had mines done this December of 2021. My doctor sent me homes with drains. They will help with clotting.
How was your experience
Happy for you dear!!
Mine is December 3rd I’m so nervous! How much assistance did you need during recovery?
Mine is the 23rd good luck!!
How did it go?
@@ceciliakayembe7490 I feel great ❤️ thanks for asking
I’m scared mine is Jan 11th
I hope everything had been going well for you lovely!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery ♥️♥️♥️♥️
How long did it take for your ins to approve it. I am in that process.
I have the same problems for everything like down to the height and breast size. I’m definitely thinking abt doing this but i’m 17 rn and still in high school so i still have to wait 🥲 my only question tho is how much does it cost to have the surgery?
Girl why did i have the same experience . I got teased in elementary, i went home in like 4-5th grade & started to squeeze my chest “to make em grow “ . I swear when 6th grade came i was in a C cup & never stopped growing now I’m DDD. I get my surgery on Thursday.
How was experience? Is there any complications 😐?
How much of a decrease happened in your overal weight?
