How long after having breast reduction should a woman wait before becoming pregnant?

Q:

How long after having breast reduction should a woman wait before becoming pregnant?

A:

Considering that it takes 1 year for the scars to mature, and that the breasts start to increase in size after 3 months of pregnancy, I advise my patients to wait at least 9 months before becoming pregnant.
