Breast lift without implants?

Peter A. Aldea, MD answers: Breast lift without implants?

I'm happy with the size of my breasts, but they could definitely be perkier. Can I get a breast lift without implants?

If an ideal breast shape can be obtained with only a Breast Lift (Mastopexy) without recourse to implants (Augmentation Mastopexy) then, by all means, that would be the way to go. If you like your current breasts volume but would like to get them perkier - a Breast Lift (Without implants) is THE operation to you.

Although there are several techniques out there, they can be divided into Breast skin shaping-based lifts and Breast gland shaping lifts. Breast lifts based on actually shaping and coning the breast tissue (rather than the skin envelope) last longer and can be done through shorter surgical scars.

Good Luck.
