Would an Uplift Be Suitable For My Sagging Breasts Post-Pregnancy? (photo)

Hi, I had my implants fitted 4 years ago,and soon after I became pregnant, I had no idea that mother nature would take effect,and I would become very broody! However I was lucky enough to produce a beautiful healthy boy,but Im left with these sagging breasts, I was very ill, so wasnt able to hold my son for a couple of weeks after, so I couldnt breast feed.Is it an uplift I would need? Thanks in advance

A: Breast lift for sagging breasts post-pregnance

Thank you for your question and photographs.  From your history and the accompanying photos it would appear that you would be an excellent candidate for a breast lift (mastopexy).  If you had any concerns about the size of your breasts this too could be addressed at the same time. It would be possible to change  your implants  making them ether  larger or smaller depending on your wishes.

I Recently Had Implants Removed. I'm Considering a Lift. How Long Should I Wait Before Deciding?

I Recently Had Implants Removed. I'm Considering a Lift. How Long Should I Wait Before Deciding?

A: Timing of breast lift after implant removal

Dear Ana, I agree with my colleagues and wait approximately three to six months before deciding if you need to consider a breast lift.  Your post operative swelling should have subsided by this time and you will have a good idea of the long term shape and position of your breasts.  Best of luck.

I'm 19 and I'm Thinking of Getting a Breast Lift. I Need Advice. (photo)

So I’m 19 years old. I’ve had saggy breasts my whole life. I’m really self conscious about them and it makes me feel ugly. The thing is is that I’m really against surgeries. (I’m a holistic health kind of person) I’m tired of feeling ugly and I want them to change but I’m not sure if I want surgery. I guess I’m just looking to have some advice. What do you think?

A: Breast lift advice

My first advice to you would be to remind you that you breasts are perfectly normal and many women your age have similarly shaped breasts.  There should be no rush in deciding to have breast lift surgery, so take your time and get consultations with at least two board certified plastic surgeons before proceeding with the breast lift.  Make certain you write down all of your questions and concerns prior to going to your consultation.  Ask to see pre and post op photos of patients who have had a breast lift and how your surgeon would handle any potential problems or complications.  In the final analysis, only you can determine if a breast lift is in your best interest.  Best of luck.
