Scar tissue
I just saw a documentary about breast reduction. It was highly interesting and made me think. They didn't go very indepth, in terms of side effects/what could go wrong, though when one of the women that were involved in the documentary collapsed after her surgery and nearly died ...
Yeah, it's not as easy as having a knife cut off some flesh and a needle stitch the rest of it together again. You're being anaesthetized, complications can arise during/after surgery, there's the risk for infection, if you do make it through there's still the chance you'll not be satisfied with the results. And there's the emotional aspect. I can't begin to imagine what it does to your psyche to have gone through something like that, especially if you've suffered for a long time because of having large breasts.
And at the same time it can be such a blessing. Those with abnormally big chests will be relieved from constant backpains/general difficulties in life. Some will get a boost in confidence that they couldn't achieve on their own. When it's done, and they're happy with the results, they can move on (hopefully).
Man, this really fuddled up my brain. But I'm glad I saw it. |
