Breast Reduction For 13 Year Old

One method that reduces the size of big breasts is breast reduction surgery. It preserves the breast’s and the nipple’s (the little area surrounding the nipple) natural contour. In a certain pattern, the physician excises excess breast tissue during surgery. This pattern positions the breast tissue on the chest wall more appropriately for the decreased breast size while maintaining the nipple/areola.

If your teenage daughter is considering breast reduction surgery, here is what you as parents should keep in mind:

In this article, we will explore the question, “Who Needs Breast Reduction Surgery?” and Breast reductions without surgery.

Who Needs Breast Reduction Surgery?

Breast reduction surgery is helpful if large breasts cause problems such as 

• ongoing upper and mid-back pain
• uncomfortable dents on the shoulders from bra strap pressure
• rashes under or between breasts from moisture trapping
• hunched posture
• breast pain when active

Most people who look into breast reduction surgery do so because of back pain.

Breast Reduction Without Surgery

1. Diet

Adipose tissue, or fat, makes up the bulk of the breasts. Losing body fat can reduce a person’s breast size.

People can lose body fat by using up more calories than they eat and eating a healthy diet. A low-calorie, highly nutritious diet can indirectly help to shrink breast tissue.

2. Exercise

Like diet, exercise can help a person lose body fat, which might also help reduce breast size over time.

Many people mistakenly believe that targeted exercises can burn fat in a specific area. While push-ups and other chest exercises will tone the arm and chest muscles, they will not directly remove fat from the breasts themselves. The key is to burn fat throughout the body.

Cardiovascular exercises that increase a person’s heart rate are highly effective at burning fat. Depending on health and fitness factors, people can try running, swimming, or taking brisk walks.

3. Reduce estrogen

Estrogen plays a key role in the development of breast tissue. So countering excess estrogen could reduce breast size, especially in people with hormonal imbalances.

Hormonal contraceptives contain estrogen and progesterone and can make a person’s breasts grow bigger. The effect usually goes away again once the person stops taking the medication.

Some research suggests that a person can reduce their body estrogen levels through dietary changes.

For instance, animal studies suggest that flaxseed supplements may help regulate estrogen levels by reducing estrogen expression in the ovaries. Flaxseed may also protect the heart, reduce the risk of cancer, and prevent inflammation.

There is, however, little evidence about natural remedies to reduce estrogen in the body. People may wish to talk to their doctor about estrogen-lowering medication.

4. Binding

Binding involves wrapping material tightly around the breasts to flatten them. It will not shrink breast tissue or prevent the breasts from growing, but binding can help the breasts look smaller and may make a person feel more comfortable.

5. Change bra

A bra cannot permanently change breast size, but minimizer bras can create the illusion of smaller breasts. These bras change the breast shape to make the breasts look flatter and higher on the chest.

Some minimizer bras also offer more supportive straps, which may reduce back and neck pain.

Finding a supportive, well-fitting bra can significantly improve a person’s comfort levels. Many stores offer free bra-fitting services. Simply changing bras can reduce some of the pain associated with large breasts.

Conclusion

Large breasts might cause self-consciousness, cause problems with clothing fit, or make it difficult to find supportive bras.

For young women, breast reduction frequently transforms their lives. Most people are happy that they decided to have surgery, even though the recovery period may be challenging.
