As a fourth person said the announcement affected her personally after her own surgery: "Thanks for normalizing it & making me feel more confident."
SERIOUS DECISION
In February, Rachel posted a TikTok video talking about her desire to get a breast reduction.
She told her fans that she had been wanting to go under the knife for the procedure since she was 17.
Rachel shared in the clip: "OK, this is kind of a really big deal for me but I wanted to come on here and ask if there are any women – or what women have experienced getting a breast reduction?"
She went on: "I have been in the process of going through my insurance and [to get] the surgery done since I was 17 and I think I am about to get it done at the beginning of next month.
"I truly think that the surgery is going to absolutely change my life."
The reality star added: "Not only in the way that I'm able to exercise and not have pain, but every woman I've ever met who's gotten the surgery has said it's absolutely changed their life."
Rachel also said that she was eager to share the entire journey with her fans on social media.
At the time, she confessed that she was "super, super nervous."
THE RESULTS
Last month, the reality star first revealed the results, taking to her Instagram feed to proudly show off her scars.
Rachel stood to the side looking over one shoulder.
She had on a strappy green dress that was low-cut in the back and appeared to be without a bra.
One arm was wrapped around her chest, exposing her sideboob and scars.
Rachel captioned the post: "I want to see scars out! (except in direct exposure to sunlight ofc)."
Fans flocked to the comments to share their support.
One wrote: "I so love this. I had the same surgery a couple weeks after you did and have been insecure about my scars showing, but seeing this made me feel proud of them."
