  • As far as i know reduction is more safe than increasing the size. However each body is different and only a doctor can give an estimation of the risks after examining the breasts.

    • Thanks for your opinion, do you think Surgery can fix her issues with those Guys?

    • Don't know, maybe

    • Hmm... because if Surgery didn't help her with her issues with those Guys then Money would go waste !

  • I've got a question. If your mom can afford the surgery, than can't you move out somewhere else? It just feels like where you live isn't safe.

    My opinion:

    I don't think the surgery would help, a**holes like this will always be like that. And since reporting to the police doesn't help, then I don't think surgery is the solution. I think you should move somewhere safer. And what is worse, what if your mom regrets it, after it has been done? I think this decision is very likely to be regretted in the future, especially that she is doing it to escape a**holes.
    I wish you all the best man, that feels so harsh. I hope your mom is okay. I can't believe the pain she has to endure.

    • Thanks for your opinion, Yeah Surgery is quite expensive option, Mom is trying to relocate her shop to some other Place it's also Expensive, but Still there is a Chance if those Guys look and Search about location of her New Shop then Again they might Start Molesting her, Mom has already started wearing tight Sports bra, loose clothes but it's not Working Against those Guys who have already seen her and they know about her big Size, So in this Situation Surgery Could be a Permanent Solution.

    • I think that is a good solution moving somewhere. I think you answered yourself she is wearing clothes to stop the harassment but still it doesn't stop, So it might not help, what if they still harass her after? I would've advised to get security like bodyguards around the shop, but I dont know if she can afford that. It is a big decision to be honest and the consequences might not be in her favor.

    • Yeah Mom is trying to manage to move somewhere else, Yeah She can't afford to have bodyguards because she already facing financial issues, Sports bra and other clothes Would have helped her if she had Worn them from the beginning but You can't unseen what have already Seen and Confirmed.

  • I’m not the smartest with these things, but I’ll say this.
    She needs to stop going wherever those guys are. If the police aren’t doing anything, don’t let her go near those guys. She needs to stay home until she can sort this stuff out. That’s what I’d do.

    • Yeah, but What do you think about Surgery option? Some people say it's not safe because She is over 42 years old, She runs a Grocery store to She can't Shut the Shop for Some Weeks, I Can run the Store on Weekends only, Mom has started wearing tight Sports bra, baggy clothes but it's not Working Against those Guys who already know about her big Size So Surgery Could be a Permanent Solution if it's Safe and don't have Serious Side effects.

    • She needs to get away from that environment. Trust me.

  • I wouldn't know I've never done it... but I bet it's safe as long as you get real professionals working on you not some cheap sketchy guy on craig'slist

  • My grandma got one in her 40's and she didn't have any complications what so ever

    • Thanks for your opinion, My Mom is also 42 years old and Some Guys are bothering and Molesting her because of her big boobs Size, So she wants to get a Surgery done.

    • That's understandable. Hope everything works out!

  • As long as the doctor is safe and you are healthy it’s safe to me.

  • Your mother shouldn’t have to even think about surgery because of other people’s reactions to her shape!
    The only thing that needs removing are those weak individuals that hang out on the street corner harassing women.

    Surgery isn’t to be taken lightly.

  • It's not dangerous other than the risk of infection. I assume she is done having kids. If she has the cash it's not a big deal.

  • It's not the side effects that you should be worried about it's the recovery it's painful as hell

  • before she goes to that extreme. has she tried to naturally reduce the size of her bust. or increase her upset body muscle mass to be better able to carry the weight?

    breasts more mostly made from fat and muscle tissue. so with targeted diet and exercise. a woman can add or reduce the size of her bust in a more natural way. however this typically does not happen over night. so it can take week, months or even years to get the desired affect or look.

    • Thank you for the Opinion, Mom has started doing exercises at home and Some diet Control too, but because She Runs a Grocery Store She don't get much time to excercise, On the other Side Those Guys have big Gang, Mom also started wearing tight Sports bra, baggy clothes but Some of those Guys have already seen her and they know she has big boobs So wearing Sports bra is not helping her Against those Guys, So Surgery remains her last option but it's expensive and Could have Side effects too.

    • ideally. most people can chance there outward appearance in a more natural matter. however it takes a few factors. knowledge - building a plan that best works for your body type. time - building a schedule to put that plan into action. effort - mount of will power you have to stick to your plan to get to your goal. getting a personal trainer or guide to help you is fine for planning and managing things. but only you as a person can truly change how you look and feel about yourself. with effort and time

  • Depends on her age but just do research on the surgeon and read into it

    it need to be approved by he physician first

    • *it needs to be approved by her physician first

    • Thanks for your opinion, Yeah I know it's lot depends on the Surgeon, Mom is 42 years old, She tried other options, work out, Diet Control, Wearing tight Sports bra, loose clothes but it's not helping her, Also Some Guys of that Gang have already seen her So they know that she has big boobs.

    • But she really has to be seen by her primary care physician to make sure it’s safe Don’t trust people on the internet for advice Her primary doctor will see if it’s safe for her

  • It is safe, because it's fairly common to get done, now.

  • I don't know. Do I look like I would be a good candidate for it? Of course not.

    • are you angry that your boobs aren't big?

    • @ChocoBrownie those who don't have big boobs they don't need a Surgery, My Mom's case and issue are different, She has big one and Those Guys are Teasing and Molesting her badly So she needs a Surgery done.

    • i get that but im asking this girl what her reasons are for giving you an opinion as if somethings up her ass

    • Show All
  • Is it possible for your mom and you to move out from there?

    • To a different state?

    • And why the police aren't helping you?

    • Mom is trying to move out but it will take Couple of Months.

  • If she doesn't actually need the surgery health wise then most likely surgeons will turn her down and insurance won't cover it. You'll have to find a plastic surgeon who is sympathetic to her. And still its gonna be very expensive since it requires removing tissue and skin

    • Thanks for your opinion, Yeah I know Surgery is expensive but Mom tried other options like weight loss, doing exercises but it takes long time to get the results, Mom has also started wearing tight Sports bra, baggy clothes but it's not helping her Against those Guys who have already seen her and they know about her big Size, So they still Teasing and Molesting her, So Surgery Could be a Permanent Solution for her.

  • That gang won't leave her alone no matter what her boobs look like. They have marked her and will continue to harass her because they can. Believing her boobs are the problem is not the answer. You are asking the wrong questions.

    • Thanks for your opinion but I think that Gang might Stop harrasing her after the Surgery because she would be No longer attractive to them and big boobs are the prime Cause Why she gets Attentions of those Guys.

  • Wouldn't it be cheaper to move to a place where the men aren't assholes?

    • Thanks for your opinion, Yeah Mom is trying to relocate her shop to a different location but it will take Couple of Months, but Still there is chance that Those Guys can also look and Search for her ! Mom has started wearing tight Sports bra and loose clothes but it's not helping her much because those Guys have already seen her and they already know about her big Size.

  • There's nothing wrong with Mom's breasts.
    There's something wrong with where she lives.
    I don't suggest to 'run away from problems' - but you just can't change idiots when there's too many of them.

    • Thanks for your opinion, Yeah Mom can't fight with them alone because they have a Gang ! Mom is trying to move her shop from their Area for her safety, She tried other options but they didn't help her, Also she started wearing tight Sports bra but it also didn't help because those Guys have already seen her.

  • I don't know about in the Philippines, but in the U. S. breast reduction surgery is covered by most health insurance plans.

    • Thanks for your opinion, Are you Sure? Because So far I know Health Insurance Companies Don't Cover this Surgery.

    • @shiney19 Yes, it was a cousin and she had it done for medical reasons not vanity.

    • Mom is thinking for the Surgery not for Vanity, Some Guys of a Criminal Gang often tease and Molest her because of her big boobs that's why Mom thinking to get reduction.

  • I've had friends who underwent the procedure. Seemed like a simple process.
