Hi!  The key is how the lift is done.  You cannot just tighten the skin.  The breast tissue must be moved up on the chest  and sculptured internally with buried stitches.  That way you get upper fullness and a good long term result.

A: Treatment for sagging breasts

Michelle Copeland, MD, DMD

After dramatic weight loss, you may notice a loss of volume and firmness of the breasts. If you're sagging or asymmetrical, and are looking for perkiness, you'll need a lift--or, if you also want more volume, a lift and implants. A breast lift raises droopy breasts from one to several inches and excess skin is removed. If you just want to go bigger, the only way to do that is with implants. The great thing about these techniques is that they can now be down with minimal scarring and performed as an outpatient procedure without the need for general anesthesia.
