My choices are probably going to be 4-5 hours away, I've done similar journey for gallbladder removal and similar type ops and it was fine but I'm guessing for this I might be staying in a hotel or air bnb for a couple of days after?

Oh God, that sounds dreadful
There must be someone nearer home

I have a question! If a person is very overweight/obese would the doctors advise to lose weight before surgery?
We are caught in a spiral of being depressed with large boobs and body hating so losing weight is almost impossible.

Nope sadly, very rural! Always do this distance for surgeries sadly.

Has anyone had a breast reduction and tummy tuck at the same time?
I think it is time for me but it is a big decision. I am scared about recovery.

Definitely. It's always safer, isn't it?
Can't you go on the jabs for a bit to lose the weight?

Hello all.
I’m seriously considering a breast reduction. Do any of you have any guidance or thoughts on the anchor vs. lollipop incision?
The lollipop incision feels preferable (as smaller scarring) but I think the anchor one is considered more suitable for substantial reductions (which is what mine would be)

I never even thought about it. Honestly, compared to everybody, I think I did no research!
presume it depends on the neck to nipple measurement.
Dont do anything that stops the lift aspect of a reduction!

Thanks. Comments (on Reddit) suggest anchor technique would be better then. Agree that if I’m going to do this, I want maximum lift benefit 😁
