Becky Fulford was used to having large breasts in the past. Her perception changed when she started having chronic back and neck pain. She consulted with some friends, dermatologists and plastic surgeons and asked him to lower the wait and the size of her breasts. Despite the workouts and diet plan, she was unable to make a significant change.
He then underwent this procedure and is not in the recovery phase. She is a stylist and has been thinking about reduction treatment since she was 16 years old, but she could not realize this idea in the past. She underwent the surgery at the age of 30. With bra sizes ranging from 30 FF to 34 GG, finding one that would fit was always a challenge.
I couldn’t wear the normal size bra. He had to find the bra in the market that fit him well. You no longer need to do this hard work. You can simply go to the market and buy a bra of your choice. You now have a wide variety of bra and dress options. He found it difficult to exercise in the gym and even walk at times due to pain.
Plastic surgeon helps take off the burden
It is not easy for women with large breasts to naturally reduce their body and breast size. Becky also tried to do it using traditional weight loss methods, but to no avail. These concerns are all too familiar to Dr. Joy Cluett, a plastic surgeon at St. John’s.
She says; “women with overly large breasts suffer from chronic back, neck and shoulder pain and many other problems. People get rashes under their breasts, and over time they can get permanent grooves in their shoulders..”
It is important to note that this procedure is not covered by normal health insurance plans. The procedure is not cheap and a large amount is needed to finance it. Although most women with large breasts can do it, the treatment is not just for all women. The breast tissue must be of a certain weight and the woman must be experiencing health problems.
Big breasts run in families.
Women who are plus size and want to have children should know that this problem can run in families. Your daughter can also become a victim of this problem and you can prevent this from happening if she reduces the size using a reduction technique. You may be fine with an oversized chest, but what if your kids have it too?
Cluett says that having large breasts is common in Newfoundland and Labrador, and appears to run in families, so there is a genetic component. She says the negative attention wasn’t just from the men, but from the women as well. “The girls are only threatened by you. People who feel for some reason that because you’re well endowed you’re going to go after their boyfriend..”
Becky and her husband now have plans to have children. She has been waiting for the right time to start the family. She is still worried about breastfeeding, but her plastic surgeon has assured her that she will be able to breastfeed easily in the future. Dr. Cluett says that most women will be able to breastfeed normally after that. However, there is a possibility of losing the ability to breastfeed normally or completely.
Reduced risk of cancer
Dr. Cluett is of the opinion that breast reduction can spare women the potential risk of breast cancer. So successful breast reduction treatment means a lower risk of breast cancer. There are many reasons behind this fact.
“There are several reasons for this according to some research studies.she says. One of the main reasons behind this is having less breast tissue which makes breast exam and mammography easier. Sometimes cancer is found during reduction surgery.
She is of the opinion that; “Sometimes we find cancer in the samples and I found quite a few myself. So the patients are lucky in that sense, it’s a godsend for them.“
She is happy with her new chest which is proportional to the rest of her body. Although she is still recovering and will soon be able to resume her routine activities, she has plans to purchase new bras that fit well. She is so exciting and can’t wait for the moment when she will wear her new Victoria’s Secret bra and stand in front of the mirror on her closet door.
Becky is currently 34DD which is less than before and will be 32D in a few months when the swelling is gone. Becky is satisfied with the results of the treatment and believes that she; “Overall I feel more comfortable. It’s already worth it.”
