Love & Hip Hop New York star Cyn Santana recently made the bold choice to get a breast reduction.

The star shared the news about her plastic surgery on Twitter last week.

"I'm currently preparing myself for my surgery!" she tweeted. "I'm finally having breast reduction due to health and insecurity issues and I'm excited."

Today, the curvy model posted a before-and-after picture and explained in detail why she decided to get the surgery.

"The before picture was taken two weeks ago," she said. "The after picture was taken this morning. It's been 4 days post surgery. Although I'm still recovering I feel a little better. I made the decision of getting a breast reduction about two years ago when I started to feel insecure about my body. As my body began to change I developed larger breasts which started causing excruciating back pains and was giving me a hard time breathing. It was no longer an insecurity issue but now a health issue."

Cyn also included that her choice to lose a few cup sizes has left her happy and healthier than ever.

"I tried losing weight and getting better bras but I felt like nothing worked," she said. "As scared as I was I felt like surgery was my best option. I finally got my surgery and I'm more happy than ever! It's going to take some time to heal but I know it'll all be worth it. Health is ALWAYS first. I'm all for doing WHATEVER makes you happy. Do whatever makes you feel good. You live for yourself. And for those spreading rumors, my body is actually 10000000% REAL. I would like to thank you guys for the love and concern. I really appreciate it. I'll be back to Krumpin real soon."
