Why big breasts?
I've been watching episodes of Dr.Rey 90210 and an Israeli PS show on plastic dreams. I get if a lady is "flat-chested" or not much shape, just not huge breasts. I don't look gorgeous in my new body but I look way better than before. I don't have money to pay for private surgery so I can only get procedures done that my HMO has approved-and that is after appealing.

I think after being 46DD, I'm extremely happy with my 38D. They were floppy 40Ds before my lift and Dr S had to do a reduction in the left so that they match now. I would have been happy with a C. Clothes fit much better now. I still have cleavage.
Hopefully, it's a lift with maybe a reduction for you.

My PS said my breasts don't have much volume. My measurement around my body right under my breasts and above the rib cage is 90cm. The doc at my pre-op in May (I will have to do it all over again on the 26th-and surgery is scheduled for 1st August) said that I have a large chest but he was talking to me in Hebrew . If, in my case the breasts are semi-long tube socks and large chest , I thought it might be "barrel-chested" or a large rib cage. Of course I googled and if barrel-chested and lung capacity problems, I fit the category as I have asthma and COPD (I don't smoke nor have I ever smoked).
I guess as a person who having been FAT most of her life - now I am just fat,I don't want to be Barbie nor do I want headlights for my breasts. I could care less if they are perky or pointy. I just want my breasts to not hang and rub my rib cage and cause me spots and rashes and funky odor.
And I most certainly do not want anything to be added to their size. I wonder if the PS can shape them into "half-grapefruits". I am short at 5ft tall/152cm and feel so much smaller than what I was when I weighed 120K/270lbs. I am not a normal BMI but I can handle being 77-78K. I would like to get to 70K but not if I have to feel that I can't eat certain foods at all,ever. My weight-loss journey is to be healthier although even at my highest weight, all I suffered from was being morbidly obese and my blood results (considering my weight and BMI of 51!) were within normal range.
My regret, aside from having been obese all the many years and not choosing a "better" surgery (I had SRVG in 1993 and then VBG -both types of permanent rings done at that time only Open) to lose weight sooner is that being that living in Israel with Socialized Medicine,as in every country, has its pluses and minuses -I did not nor will I pay for most procedures. But as we know with HMO/insurance coverage, I am having only certain procedures on a limited type of permission via my HMO and even then only after I appealed on my Plastics. I'm not feminine nor do I look it. My TT was more a panniculectomy so I feel rectangular or boxey with the curves of butt and thigh blubber!!!
I'm ranting (and half-asleep at 03:30!
I love my flat tunny even with what I went thru, but I want more. Outside my home I wear skirts and due to the size of my butt and thighs, I am very limited on what skirts k can buy and then everything is way too long on me.
Maybe my body could be stretched so I can be a bit taller....

I'm also trying to get a reduction/lift and also have two surgeons saying it different like yours (one said a lift should be enough the other said a reduction). I really want a reduction and want to go small. My surgeon asked if a C cup would be enough and I said yes but if he would happened to go smaller I wouldn't be upset.
Always was very big and it really bothers me, rashes, back and shoulder pain and can't even jog without issues. Have to fight my insurance since they have denied it a couple times already. No money to get it done by myself-single mom of two kids and have too many bills right now, I want this surgery bad even worst than then the tt.

I fought and won against the HMO committee.
My PS wrote mastopexy (breast lift and removal of excess skin) and now that I am rescheduled, the Head of the Department filled out the paperwork so now it is written 'Reduction-both sides'.
I don't really care what gets done to my breasts as long as they don't hang and chafe on my abdomen anymore!
