Hi Angell ... I hope this finds you in good health
There are different types of breast Hypertrophy ... One of them is known as Virginal Hypertrophy which is progressive and may be recurrent after Surgery ... I think you and your mother may benifit a team consultation of plastic surgeon , endocrinologist & Psychatry specialist to get a detailed desicion of your exact problem
While it is true that the breast tissue can grow back, it is not typical. Many patients have similar issues and I have many patients your age. One in particular was 15. Her older sister waited until she was 19. The patient and her mother told me how it was the best thing that her sister has done for herself. The mother did not want her younger daughter to have to wait until she was 18 to experience the joy of proportional breasts and less back pain.
I would definitely recommend that you consult with a plastic surgeon to get more information about the procedure
Thank you for sharing your question. Patients as young as yourself are able to seek a breast reduction if their symptoms justify it. It may require you to have a second procedure later, but that is certainly not guaranteed. Seek out in-person consultations to get the best advice
