Don't all BR require a lift as well?

By marKtoD on 21 Aug 2012

I am having my BR surgery in October.  I just assumed in order to have a reduction there would also be lifting involved.  Is this not always the case?  I will be going from a 38K down to a large C or D cup.  Maybe it's always the case with an extreme case.

Were you told differently by your PS? The first consultation I went to, the PS told me that it would be an additional fee to do the lift. However, the next 2 PS's told me it was all included. If you are going down that much in size, you are certainly going to need a lift to bring the nipple/areola to a normal location. Talk to you PS about it or get a second oppinion if you aren't sure. Good Luck!
