Not enough information to be able to help you for breast implants

Your surgeon has the advantage of all your breast measurments and examining you. Without photos and more information, I don't see how any advice you get in this forum will be more reliable than a face-to-face consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Breast Implant Size and Breast Lifting Concerns?

Thank you for the question. Although you do provide a good description of your situation, giving you advice without direct examination or at least viewing photographs is not appropriate/precise in my opinion. Assuming you have chosen a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon ( and have seen lots of examples of his/her work), than he/she is in a much better position to advise you. If you still have concerns ( this close to your surgical date) you may need... more

Your question is quite complex and involves two separate operations - a lift and an augmentation. Both are procedures that involve appearance and balancing proportions.

You might want to get another opinion before surgery.

Big Breast Implants

Hello, If you are a 36 C and describe yourself as saggy and deflatted, it is hard for me to imagine why you are not a candidate for a breast lift.

Many surgeons have the misconception that a large, high profile implant is somehow going to lift... more

Needing but not wanting a lift

High profile saline implants tend to give a rounder look which, in my opinion, is less natural. The combination of a high profile saline implant and crease manipulation may put you at increased risk for a double bubble deformity. Needing but not wanting a lift may lead to a rather long looking breast as your tissue will have a tendency to slide off the implant. You may want to get another opinion or two. Good luck!

Implant choice

Without an exam it is impossible to properly size you for implants. This is doen in the office after a physical exam and thorough discussion of your goals. Good luck.
