She recently admitted she didn't expect such a supportive reaction from her fans.
'I thought I would get a lot more criticism about, 'Oh, you did surgery. You changed yourself, blah, blah, blah ... ' Which a lot of people say, but I received so much support from women and young girls,' Ariel told People.
'Girls are tweeting me and saying like, 'Oh, this wouldn't be accepted where I am, but now that you did it and opened a conversation about it, I can actually like talk to my friends and family about the possibility of this.''
She went under the knife on June 4, sharing with Glamour that she felt 'like a new person' after deciding not to live with the pain anymore.
'A new person' Ariel, pictured in January at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, underwent breast reduction surgery in June, taking her from a 32 F to a 34 D
'I really couldn't stand up straight for a long period of time. It started to hurt so bad that I couldn't take the pain. My neck was hurting so bad and I actually had some problems with my spine,' she said, of deciding to undergo breast reduction surgery, taking her from a 32 F to a 34 D.
Meanwhile, the Modern Family star has recently found love with high school sweetheart Laurent, who revealed that Ariel made the first move on him.
'I received a text from her. That's the first interaction I remember with her and I send very short responses, and her first thing that she sent to me was a giant, long, paragraph.'

Ariel added: 'I sent this giant, long paragraph about like, 'Hi, I'm Ariel. Nice to meet you.' Like just all this stuff about myself.'
The two have since been seen cuddling at the 2015 Emmy Awards, the Teen Vogue Young Hollywood Party, and in a collection of sweet snaps shared on the ABC star's Instagram account.
