Do I Need a Breast Lift with BA and Can I Just Have a Mini Tuck ? (photo)

I am debating on adding the breast lift with my breast augmentation due to the breasts being slightly tuberous. Can I just do a high profile b.a. and not the lift? I am a 34AA right now and might do a 300cc under the muscle. Also, I've attached a picture of my stomach....I am 115lbs. with just some skin hanging over my c-section area... is it suitable to do just a mini tuck. I am an active runner and do weight training 4 times a week. Appreciate your insight.

BA vs BL and Tummy Tuck

Thank you for sharing your photos. I would recommend a perioareolar breast lift for you to help correct your breast shape and assymetry. I do not think I could give you an ideal shape and symmetry by implants alone. In regards to your tummy tuck, I do think a tummy tuck will be very helpful to you, but cannot decide whether you are a better candidate for a full or mini based on the photos provided.

Lift needed?

I think that just a periareolar lift would help center your nipple better. You also have a little asymmetry that needs to be dealt with. A mini tummy tuck would work but the scar might have to ba little longer because of the amount of extra skin you have. Good luck.

Lift needed?? Mini-TT a good choice??

Thanks for the question and the photos. Neither are quite enough to give a definitive answer, and even a full portfolio of photos is quite like an actual consult. Breast: your arms are elevated in the photo, and this already simulates a breast lift. Your breasts are constricted (tuberous) and you would probably have a better result with a lift in addition to implants. Your surgeon will be able to help navigate the many alternatives.

Breast lift with implants and mini tummy tuck

Thank you for posting pix even though limited in view. Few patients are good candidates for a mini abdominoplasty and you seem to be. You may even have the opportunity to have high profile silicone implants placed under the muscle through your abdominoplasty incision. Best of luck.

Best Option for Breast and Tummy Surgery?

Thank you for the question and pictures. Unfortunately, I am not able to provide you with precise advice without direct examination and a full communication of your goals. Based on your pictures however it seems like you will do well with breast augmentation plus/minus limited breast lifting (circumareolar). A more complete history, physical examination (or photos) and discussion of your goals would be necessary to give you good advice about your tummy. Generally... more

Breast surgery and mini tummy tuck

It is hard to tell if only the implants will correct your breasts from your photos...at most, the addition of a circumareolar mastopexy would be all that would also be needed. A mini tummy tuck appears quite reasonable.

Breast augmentation/lift

You need a very carefull examination and measuremnts. You have two different breasts. the position of the nipples are different and the size is different. I would consider a cohesive gell shaped implant. As for the tummy tuck, the pictures posted are very limited to give an opinion. Cosult an experienced Board certified Plastic Surgeon.
