Some women are born with big breasts, and to many women who are flat chested this would be seen as an asset, but this is not the case for many women who have them.  Big breasts often mean big problems, back ache being one of them, bras which are so huge the straps dig into the shoulders.  Not being able to wear that sexy little top in the summer, or wear nice underwear that looks good.  There is a solution to this, breast reduction (Brustverkleinerung) is offered by many private hospitals and clinics, and although expensive many women have found that this is the only way of feeling better about their bodies.

Many celebrities have opted for breast reduction.  Drew Barrymore who first appeared on a TV screens as the cute sister Gertie in ET had her boobs reduced when she was just 16, and looks absolutely fabulous.  It certainly did her career more good than harm.  37 year old Queen Latifah had her breasts reduced back in 2003 as a way of reducing back and shoulder pain.  She went from an F to a DD, although prior to surgery she did attempt to loose weight as a way of reducing her assets, but 25 pounds lighter, her breasts were still as big as ever.

Jordan recently had her breasts reduced and is thought to have gone from a 32FF to a 32D.  She has had a lot of surgery over the past few years, much to her husband peters dismay.

Plastic surgery may seem like a major step, but to many it is a necessity in order that they feel and look good.  Facelifting is also a procedure that has been undergone by many celebrities, celebrities such as Bruce Jenner, Jessica Lange, Barry Manilow, Kenny Rodgers, Joan Rivers, Micky Rourke and Michael Jackson are all thought to have gone under the knife
