make sure you have planty of pillows to prop yourself up on.  Keep water and a few snacks near the bed or couch.. which ever you plan on sleeping on for the next day or so.  Also keep a trash can nearby.. just incase you get sick from the medicine.  I only got sick once.. because my surgery was a breeze and I tried to help my husband clean out the garage and I got sick bending over.  But I heard a lot of people got sick.  You will be great though, its good to have someone with you at home though so that if you need anything they can get it for you.  You are going to feel like a BRICK wall is sitting on your chest.  But that goes away.  Don't lift anything for a while.. and you are pretty much going to sleep.  ON YOUR BACK.. FOR A GOOD 2 WEEKS!  And make sure you massage your breasts to keep them from hardening!  Good Luck!

Depends on the practice. Some may cover your insurance, and some may not. Beforehand, look in the phone book and call the business you're interested in going to for the surgery, and see if they'll cover you. If not, a good bottle of acne treatment cream works just as well as the scrubs and pills [and you can buy it at walmart for about 2 bucks] . Keep your hands away from your face, don't eat any greasy/fatty foods, and take a shower daily.

Uninformed people will tell you that breast implants are unsafe, but this is just not the case.  There are many doctors in CA that specialize in this.  This website has a list of recommended doctors that they have researched and found them to be very reputable:  http://allaboutplasticsurgery.com/\n\nThe danger comes in when you do not research your doctor.  There are many people who are not licensed that will give implants, and they are tempting because they are are cheaper.  DO NOT go to a surgeon who is not Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.  Do your research and you will be fine.

It is federal law that insurance pay for breast implants when the patient has had breast cancer.  The 1998 Federal Breast Reconstruction Law, and sometimes referred to as the Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act of 1998, the law went into effect January 1. The law requires group and individual health insurance plans to cover reconstructive surgery after mastectomy, as well as implants and other work needed to make the other breast symmetrical.\nhttp://www.webmd.com/content/article/4/1680_50682.htm\n\nAND:\n\nFederal law requires that insurance covers breast reconstruction after a mastectomy.\nhttp://www.webmd.com/content/article/76/90245?z=4209_00000_8000_to_04

Surgery: Sometimes surgery may be required to improve the scar. In this case, the surgeon will remove excess scar tissue, and reposition the incision so that it heals in a less visible pattern. This scar removal surgery is usually done under local or general anesthesia in the doctor's office.\n\nCreams/Massages: Treatment using special creams are applied directly to the scar. The cream softens the scar tissue and promotes healing by working on the collagen fibers and realigning them. Massage may also be recommended, especially after breast surgery. This also helps to break up the scar tissue.\n\nLaser: Scars, especially old scars, may be treated with PhotoDerm, a non-invasive, laser-like device that emits an intense flash of light that works directly on the scar by reducing the blood vessels present in the scar tissue.

Breast implants surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her breast reduction, tummy tuck and facelift surgery in India by the company called Forerunners Healthcare .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.\n\nForerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. They arrange cosmetic and plastic surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as the breast reduction, tummy tuck, facelift and other cosmetic surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\nHope this helps.

Below is a link to a very complete checklist at the US Department of Health and Human Services - Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.\n\nThe checklist has links to several resources to assist you.\n\nGood luck! :-)\n\nEditing to add a link to eBreastaug.com which has a fairly exhaustive link page. Don't let the name throw you, if you can check for one specialty, such as plastic surgery, chances are you can research other specialties.

Losing weight will help and having an op to reuce them is very drastic. Two close friends of mine have had the op (They were very big breasted and had started to experience back and neck pain due to the weight of their boobs!). The op takes about 5 hours and cost both of them about 3k each and that was 4 years ago.\n\nId say try to eat healthily and lose a bit of weight (not too much though, and not too quickly) Then see how you feel about your boobs? You might find you no longer consider them an issue?

They do not keep you in the hospital for near as long as they used to. Sometimes overnight is considered normal. As you are aware, this surgery usually effects your personal life but the Dr. will offer Viagra or similar medications provided that you do not have heart problems. The recovery period is not too bad although you will naturally be a bit tired at first and can still have some blood in the urine for a while yet. Hope all goes well ending the concern with the PSA tests!  I am going for surgery on Nov. 21st.

i had a breast reduction, in may of 2006, i was  46DD, no bra in the world would have made a difference! if they hurt they hurt! nothign cna ease that pain, except for a reduction! or a lift! when i woke up from surgery, i had absolutly no pain at all!!! they had me hooked up to this self serving medicine machine! wher eu press the button when YOU need it! i was in the hospital over nihgt, i had the surgery at 8am,, was done by Noon, so form noon til about noon the next day i only used the medicin once for pain, and it wasnt even that much pain... the recovery is a little bit difficult, she may need help for a week or 2, me, i was able to take care of my kids (3yrs and 1yr) at the 2 week point. they were still  sensative, but wasnt painful, the most uncomfortable time duration is the first 2 weeks, u have to walk slow, so they dont bounce, or move, u cant really shower, (sponge bathe), u cant lift ur arms an higher than ur breast,... but thats all worth it if ur in alot of pain!!!  no exercise can help with this situation of relieving back pain caused by breast! im asumming she is a small girl cuz a D cup isnt that bad, unless they are saggy. i am a D now, but im a bit of a big girl so its good for me!  u have nothing to worry about, let ur friend do this for her! she will be a better person inside and she will have alot of self confidence ( whether or not she has some now) i go the surgery done for health reason and came out feeling soooo much better abou tmy self, i never thought was possible! i couldnt be happier, it change my whole outlook on myself... \n\n\ngive ur friend all the support in the world1 she is goin to need you when she does this! good luck to her!

Not for awhile.... be careful, I ended up having 3 breast surgeries due to complications.... I was lifting box's and 1 popped, another shifted under my arm , and another got a hole in it... it was an awful experience so just be careful...

I've had this procedure, twice as a matter of fact!...but I didn't have Medicaid insurance.  It shouldn't make a difference what insurance you have as long as your are in pain due to the large size of your breasts.  The doctor is looking for those operative words, back, neck shoulder pain, rashes between breasts etc.
