I just looked at the pics, I didn't read all the posts, but I want to tell you something about me. When I was a teenager I was a target for bullies in high school and a target for rude men on the streets as they were violently coming towards me to touch me. I was so desperate that I wanted to reduce my breasts. Thank God, I couldn't find a doctor that would operate on an **08** person. When I was 20 3 doctors told me to reduce my breasts. I looked up on google again what a surgery means. I was shocked to read on forums and blogs about ladies that have been butcherd by the doctors. Some said they still have huge pain over 2 years and that there might be puss in the scar after half year.... That scared me! Then a friend of mom talked to me. She had breast cancer and her breasts are gone now. She told me that it would be a huge mistake! Then I had this inner talk with me and I decided that I wouldn't be myself without my big breasts. Also I realized that I am going from bigger cup to bigger cup and so on, so if I would have reduced my tits, the scars would be bigger and bigger. The only way I would have a breast reduction, would be only and if only I would be diagnosed with cancer... I had back problems. I had at some point a scoliosis crisis. I was afraid to breath, that bad it hurt. I couldn't walk, couldn't talk, and each time I wanted to say a word i felt like my heart is gonna explode from the pain. I went to the doctor and he gave me a cocktail of painkillers. I asked him if it's because of my heavy chest. And he said... you know what? No! It's not because you have big chest, it's because your back muscles are not strong enough! So work them out! And since then I haven't had any other problem with my back! So I hope I will never ever have any condition that would force me to reduce my breasts! XOXO to all boobs lovers

THANK you for this. This helps to confirm/validate a position I've held for years in this regard. (A related position has to do with self-inflicted poor posture, resulting from slouching and trying to "be invisible".)

Also, sorry for your unfortunate journey, but very happy for your enlightenment.

YouTube: "What Breast Reduction Actually Feels Like"

The money quote: "I've drawn the conclusion that a breast reduction is every bit as psychological in nature as it is physical. It deals with sexuality and attractiveness, emotional stability and social standards, in a way that a knee or a hip surgery doesn't."

I'm sure this was mentioned before, but sadly, the once-glorious-but-still-quite-appealing pendulous wonder that was/is Yurizan Beltran has also fallen victim to the surgeon's knife.

Back ,shoulder and (not mentioned) AB workout regimens are great for ANYBODY's posture...and especially for well endowed women.

BUT...breast reduction surgery is now an affordable and socially accepted practice that improves the lives of thousands of women every year.

Known several woman who have gotten reductions and they all have had great post-op experiences. They say the only thing they lost was (unwanted) attention from strangers.

I dunno anything about the veracity or provenance of this photo or of its subject, though I assume her to be a m1nor **29** of some sort.

Perkins was the lead in Big with Tom Hanks. On Weeds she played a character who had a double mastectomy.

Mod edit: Thanks for the info gimmedat! May we assume that the pic I attached is her made-up with fictional post-mastectomy reconstruction scars? -Pal

Lexi Lowe has what appear to be reduction scars.

Indeed, and this is why I keep babbling that anyone who wants either enlargement or reduction needs to first have a serious talk with a psychologist or psychiatrist.

1) What does she want the surgery to do? 2) Will the surgery do that? 3) Is there a less-invasive way to do the same thing? 4) What else will the surgery do?

Either that, or have a long talk with Linsey Dawn MacKinsey.

From what I've seen/gathered, there seems to be a considerable range of "success" in terms of breast reduction outcomes, with some looking surprisingly good and retaining nipple sensitivity while at the other end of the spectrum, there are some that wind up mishapen and/or have little or no nipple sensitivity. Sort of like breast enlargement surgeries: some come out much better than others... we've all seen those that wind up with completely unaturally-shaped breasts, or asymetry, or odd nipple position (or some combination of all of those things) and then there are those augmentations that look so good you can barely believe they were ever under the knife.

As it happens, the largest pair of breasts I ever had the chance to get to know IRL had been reduced (at least ten years before). IMO, they came out extremely well: they had a great overall shape that looked "right" in the context of their still massive size, the nipples were in the right place and responded well to touch, and even the scarring wasn't too bad, which was a surprise considering the dusky/olive skin tone. The only complaint I could have had (aside from not ever getting to play with them pre-reduction of course ) was that they were very firm... surprisingly so for un-implanted breasts. I'm *assuming* this might have been due to internal scar tissue, which might have acted as a sort of bra... it was a huge reduction (I saw the "before" photos) so a lot of tissue had been removed.

Presumably, given their size and location, these are reduction scars on Eva Notty.

No, that was a botched enlargement
