I have consulted a board certified PS & am in process of scheduling the surgery. Dr. has said for perkiest look go for a full lift w/ augmentation, and for a more natural look go with a donut lift w/ augmentation. Below are photos of the look I'm after & my own breasts. I know "perky" and "natural" have different definitions depending on each person. Which lifting would bring mine to the same position and shape? I know all breasts are different, I am simply going for that "style" in the pics
I would recommend a technique called circum-nipple mastopexy with cold-subfascial augmentation. you have large areolas and with this technique you can have completely hidden scars instead of scars at the areola-breast junction. With the cold-subfascial technique the breast implant is supported into a tear-drop shape like the result you are after. The cold-subfascial technique also prevents the dramatic 'muscle jumping' that you can expect with subpectoral and dual-plane techniques. Even in the best hands a Benilli lift tends to flatten the breast and always results in widened unattractive scars with time. If you are considering Benelli lift you would be much better off with a vertical lift as it offers support and does not typically result in a widened scar. I hope this helps!

The literature my doc gave me says i cant get my breasts wet for 6 weeks. I can't imagine not showering for that length of time. Are there options?
It seems funny to me when I hear that doctors and nurses tell their patients not to get their wounds wet for l to 2 to even 6 weeks after surgery. With few exceptions such a skin grafting I encourage my patients to shower the day after surgery. I do not want them getting into a tube an immersing their wounds. Soap and water is what I scrub my hands with before surgery so it should be good for the patients skin after surgery. Actually I encourage the patients to wash their wounds with soap and water and if they have sutures, which most don't, to place antibiotic ointment on their sutures. I especially want them to wash around their drains and apply fresh ointment around the drains at least two times a day.
But if your surgeon wants it another way, more power to them. What works best in each surgeons hands is the best approach.
I had a Breast lift 18 months ago (doughnut incision). The shape and feel of my breasts are okay, but the surgery left me with deep wrinkles around both areolas. When I discussed this with the surgeon he said that he should have used the T-shape technique, but reverted to doughnut further to my persistence on minimal scarring. What are my options now? Please explain those techniques with Before and After photos, if possible.

This is really one of the big draw backs of periareolar techniques. You can expect continued settling and improvement but also will likely have continued spreading. This is why your surgeon like most plastic and reconstructive surgeons prefer to use these techniques in cases of minimal ptosis. At some point if there is recurrent ptosis, converting to a vertical lift with a 'lollipop' scar can be helpful.
