Worst Breasts Ever?

You do not have the worst breasts ever. You have breast that fed your children! Breast with significant ptosis (sagging) is not uncommon and can be seen, as in your case, even in young women. I applaud you for sharing your photographs, You may think you are the only woman with breasts that sag but you're not. Your photo helps remind other women they are not alone. So what can be done? A breast lift is definitely something to consider. For several years I have been... more

A breast lift

You would benefit from a breast lift to move your nipples and areolas (the dark part around your nipple) up to the middle of your breasts. The other thing to consider is if you want your breasts to be the same size, smaller, or bigger. If you want them to be the same size, you simply need a breast lift (or mastopexy). To make them smaller - a breast reduction would make them smaller and lift them. And if you would like them bigger, you could have a lift and add an... more

PHOTO: Massive breasts with ptosis (sag): Breast reduction will be the best for you.

A breast reduction will be the best option for you. This essentially combines a lift, areola reducition and excess skin removal.

Breast reduction and breast lift

Thank you for posting the photo. As virutally every surgeon answering on real self you will need a breast reduction with a breast lift. All significant breast reductions involve a breast lift at the same time. I do not see shoulder bra strap grooving in the photo but if you have documented chronic neck, back and or shoulder pain unresponsive to non-surgical treatment the entire surgery would likely be covered by your health insurance.

Breast lift

Your breasts are significantly ptotic and coudl use a lift. YOu may have enough tissue to provide for a reasonable lift without an implant.

Dear Worst, I hate to burst you bubble but while your current breasts may not win you many Miss America titles, they are NOT the worst breast most of us have seen or corrected. What is done depends on your... more

A breast lift to reestablish desired form

You have retained plenty of volume. It is the shape that needs improved, which can be achieved with a mastopexy or a breast lift. If you would like to further reduce the cup size then a small reduction could be done. This could be performed with a "lollipop" scar. I would not recommend free nipple grafting as you would lose all sensation, sensitivity, and (erectile) function. Being dark skinned you may also lose some or all of the pigment with the... more

What breast surgery do I need after breast feeding?

I agree with the other surgeon's in that you really need either a lift, reduction, or both. Best to consult with a local Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in your area who is experienced in breast surgery. Speak with him/her about your concerns and explore various options. I hope that helps! see video

Breast reduction and lifting will restore an attractive shape

Dear Lady, you definitely need a breast lifting. The amount of reduction will depend on the cupsize you wish to retain. If you are not a smoker there are techniques which can preserve your nipple without having to move it as a free graft. This gives a better chance of preserving some sensation, and sometimes even breastfeeding is still possible after the operation. The lifting/reduction will take scars : a circular one around the areola, a vertical one from the areola to the fold... more

Breast Reduction

You are certainly a candidate for breast reduction. This would restore the position and shape of your breast and optimally can even restore the projection that you once had. You are best served to have a breast reduction if you are done having children though as any subsequent pregnancies may result in larger breasts.

Breast Reduction lifts and contours the breasts

Breast reduction will definitely lift and shape your breasts. Your insurance may cover the surgery. Just check with a few plastic surgeons and make sure they're board certified.

Breast reduction and lift will help you.

Hi. You do have a severe case. I would recommend a breast reduction and breast lift with the free nipple graft technique. When there is so much sagging, this is safest. see video
