<h3 style="text-align: center;">Raven-Symoné Acknowledges Having A Seizure During Her First Breast Reduction</h3>
<p>During the latest episode of <a href="https://omny.fm/shows/the-best-podcast-ever-with-raven-and-miranda/bpe-lizzorev-final" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Best Podcast Ever with Raven and Miranda</em></a>, the <em>That&#8217;s So Raven </em>star discussed the subject with her wife, <strong>Miranda Maday</strong>. About 21-and-a-half minutes in, Raven-Symoné spoke about sharing the same surgeon as &#8220;Kelly Osbourne&#8217;s mom,&#8221; <strong>Sharon Osbourne</strong>.</p>
<p>Miranda then remarked that Sharon&#8217;s body was &#8220;snatched&#8221; before Raven proceeded to discuss her surgeries more.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We went to the same plastic surgeon. I had two breast reductions and lipo before I turned 18. &#8230; I never [publicly] shared it.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Honing in on the fact that she was a minor at the time, the actress confirmed there was &#8220;paperwork involved.&#8221; Additionally, she acknowledged that her own father had &#8220;strongly&#8221; suggested that she undergo the breast reduction procedures.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;There was paperwork involved. My dad suggested, strongly, that I should get my breasts reduced.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>After noting that the suggestion was meant to keep her from &#8220;feel[ing] bad,&#8221; Raven-Symoné noted that she added on liposuction to get people to &#8220;stop calling [her] fat.&#8221; As a result, Raven &#8220;got a twofer.&#8221; The 37-year-old acknowledged, <strong><em>&#8220;It was just a mess, just being that young and the pain of it all.&#8221;</em></strong></p>
<p>She also shared that she &#8220;still [has] scar tissue to this day&#8221; before revealing she &#8220;had a seizure&#8221; after waking up from the first surgery. Then, Raven spoke about going back for a second breast reduction.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I gained weight after and had to go back for [another reduction] because they were still too big for others&#8217; feelings.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Before concluding her reflection on the experience, the actor shared advice for others to consider.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;If you want something changed in your body, live with it for a little bit longer to see if it changes. And get therapy before that happens.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
