Breast Implant size for saggy 34C's to achieve 34D's?

Do I need Breast lift again? Will Breast augmentation help keep the girls standing upright? I am considering Breast augmentation and lift. I had a lift 3 years ago, I was happy for a while now I want them fuller and higher.

I am 5'7" and 125 lbs. I currently wear a 34C and am looking to be a 34D, full D that is. I have an abundance of breast tissue but after breastfeeding my son, my skin is thinner/less supple. Any suggestions as to what type/size implants I'd need?

A: Larger implants cause more drooping

John P. Stratis, MD

One of the problems with drooping breasts and putting in larger implants is that the implants will eventually cause more drooping, especially the larger the implants. The ideal is to do a lift with the same implants or smaller implants.

A: "High and tight": the Holy Grail of Breast Implants

Lavinia Chong, MD

After pregnancy and lactation, many women, like yourself, are left with relatively floppy breast tissue and skin.  In evaluating the breasts, I measure the breasts and notice whether the implants have "dislocated" off the rib cage.  If the implants have dropped "down and... more
