Fullness of Breasts after Breast Surgery

If you want the full upper pole projection then it is very likely that you may need breast implants as well as a breast lift. The cleavage that is shown on most celebrities and many models is due to breast implants. This amount of definition on the upper chest wall is almost impossible to achieve using only a patient's natural tissue.

Breast lift and augmentation

Depending on the severity and complexity of your case, a breast lift (mastopexy) alone may provide you with the resuls you would like to achieve. However, most woman benefit from breast augmentation to achieve a fuller look or more volume and roundness on top.

Well done breast lift can give you round shape without implants.

Hi. 1) Go for breast implants only if you want to have bigger breasts. 2) The key to a good breast lift that will give you round shape FOR A LONG TIME is to lift and reshape the breast tissue INTERNALLY (Lejour technique). Most commonly, a breast lift is done by tightening the "skin bra", but skin stretches and this type of lift does not last.

Breast lift to achieve a round shape to the breast

A lift alone can achieve a round shape to the breast depending on the type of lift done and the amount of lift required. To increase the volume to your breasts, you may want to consider an implant. Otherwise, I have found the circumareolar lift (with the incisions around the areola) or a circumvertical lift (with the incisions around the areola with a small vertical incision below it) to give the best round shape to the breasts. Good luck!

Breast lift with volume

An implant can give you a round look, but so can your own breast tissue if you have enough. The newer breast lift techniques shape the breast tissue and can give you what you are looking for. But, if you are sagging without adequate volume, then an implant is necessary.

Breast lift, implants and round breast shape

Dear NeedImplants101, To acheive a round shape of the breast- you do not necessarily need implants. Implants will help with shaping, increasing the size of the breast, increasing upper pole breast fullness and projection of the nipple areolar complex. This shaping can be done with the lift alone or with the addition of micro-fat grafting to the breast. Your surgeon should review the options in consultation along with the risks of each.
