Advice for breast augmentation redo after pregnancy?

Ask yourself, "Am I happy with the size of my breasts when they are lifted up in a bra?" If you are, you don't need a larger implant, you just need to have the implants placed higher on your chest wall. BTW you can do this with a periareolar lift which will leave minimal scars.

Hi, As you can see from the many and varied responses to your question, there are several solutions to your problem.  The best solution really depends on what you are looking for.  If you like the size you are now when you wear a bra (which naturally lifts the breasts), then a breast lift... more

Hi there- In my experience, changes that occur in the shape of a woman's breast as a result of pregnancy and/or breast feeding are not easily correctible through replacement of the implant alone, especially if you don't necessarily want to be significantly larger than your current size.

In addition, adding volume and weight to the sagging breast may... more
