Breast Lift with implants to achieve symmetry?

You have a very common problem that many postpartum women experience--loss of volume and ptosis (droopiness of the breast). It's hard to tell from just one picture but you most likely need an implant for volume enhancement and some sort of lift procedure for nipple repositioning. It may be possible to do a... more

In some respects you don't have an easy starting point.  First of all, you need an implant to add volume.  However at your height and weight, a proper implant will be wide enough and have enough volume that it won't make you just "a little bigger."  Rather, it will add probably 2 cup... more

Your picture is very useful. It tells us plastic surgeons many things. For example, one can tell that you will need some volume to fill in the breasts. Thus, you would benefit from having an implant. The other thing we can see is that you will probably need a lift. If you only have an implant, your breast will... more

Livy, In most respects you don't have an easy starting point.  Your breasts are very differently shaped and very differently positioned.  On a realistic level you should not expect complete symmetry, rather two slightly different, but nice breasts.  Of course, the goal is symmetry, but in your... more

A combination procedure using a breast implant and a lift will give you the result you are looking for. Either operation alone would be suboptimal. The implant is necessary to restore lost volume but also to add volume to the upper pole of the breast to restore the youthful appearance you mentioned. The breast... more

Dear Livylive, Of course, I haven't examined you, but based on your picture, I think I know what you need.   You need a lift on both sides, but you are right to stress the asymmetry.  You need more of a lift on your left breast (right in the photograph) than on your right.   This can be... more

 Your picture shows breasts with slight asymmetry, deflation, and droop. In my opinion, you would benefit from both a lift and an augmentation. Both procedures could be done at the some time or separately (staged).  The size of the implant is really up for grabs. That is a decision not easily made.... more

It is not possible to be sure of symmetry or degree of droop from a single picture taken at a slight angle. Judging from the photo available, it does not appear that a lift is needed in order for an implant to fill out the breast naturally and make it look lifted and more youthful. It is important to... more

A breast augmentation with a breast implant combined with a breast lift will be required to achieve symmetry.However, your breast ptosis or sag is so minor that ypou could achieve a nice result--but not symmetry--with a breast augmentation alone. The benefit of course is that you will avoid the scars caused by... more

It looks like you're an excellent candidate for a lift and augmentation with silicone implants.  I would place the scars around the areoalas and use about 200-300cc implants depending on how large you want to be.  Talk with several plastic surgeons around your area to see what they would recommend... more
