Rachel Recchia is getting something off her chest… before she gets something off her chest.
The Bachelorette star took to TikTok Wednesday to share with fans a major change that she’s been waiting a long time for: a breast reduction! In a video titled, “i did it!! tg for @genevieveparisi R.N,” the 27-year-old documented the lead up to the procedure, with roommate and Bachelor in Paradise star Genevieve Parisi right by her side.

The 23-second clip, which opens with Rach getting her hair braided by Gen as she closes out her “last day with boobs,” shows her washing her face, picking out a comfy outfit — a black hoodie, black sweatpants, cozy slippers, and a plush pillow to accessorize — before the two make their way to the medical center. While there, she shows herself off both pre- and post-op, first in a hospital gown, and then with someone from the medical staff. She and Gen later make their way home, and to conclude, she adds a funny little snippet of herself ringing a bell for assistance — which her roommate is happy to offer! See the full day (below):

Since undergoing the procedure on Tuesday, the reality star has been laying low, but still managing to muster up the energy to interact with fans on her exciting TikTok. One user commented, “How are you doing??? I’m glad it all went well!! Praying for a fast recovery for you!,” to which she responded:
“i am doing well thank you so much”
Another fan related to the procedure, writing, “THE BEST THING IVE EVER DONE IN MY LIFE. 1.5 years post op and never felt more comfortable and confident. Congrats and heal up.” Genevieve playfully responded:
“I now answer to a bell”
LOLz! What an amazing friend! And Rachel agrees, as she responded, “nurse gen!!!”

“she’s just the best”
Fans who follow the Bachelor star will know the procedure was a long time coming, as she opened up in a TikTok last month:
“I have been in the process of going through my insurance and getting 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. 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.”

We’re so glad she finally was able to go through with the surgery, and will hopefully live a more enjoyable life!
