I am 19 years old and am thinking about a breast reduction. Do you think this is okay?


Breast reduction should not be done before the age of 20-22 because the breasts are still growing. The surgery for breast reduction is best done when the breasts have reached their maximum growth at around the age of 25. In very rare cases, breast reductions are done in school-aged females who encounter humiliation and stress from their colleagues because of large breasts. Another common reason to delay breast reduction is soon after pregnancy. The breast swelling that occurs during pregnancy often subsides within 3-6 months. Pregnancy can also lead to changes in the shape, size, texture, contour and cause sagginess of the breasts. It is better to complete all child bearing before one decides to undergo breast reduction. After breast reduction, you do need at least 4-6 weeks to fully recover.
