Do I need another Breast lift?

I had a Breast augmentation with lift a year ago this month. I also had a Breast lift revision this March. I hate how far apart they are and I want to know if there is something else that can be done to achieve the round close-together cleavage I am wanting. I am also disappointed about how uneven they are.

I would generally not recommend another lift. You have alot of breast tissue and this greatly affects the appearance of your breasts in addition to the implants. The look you are trying to achieve would likely require an agressive reduction as well as a lift. This is not without the risk of developing... more

A: Unrealistic Expectations

Leslie H. Stevens, MD

It appears from your photograph that your breast were relatively large and pendulous to begin with. It also seems that the look you are looking for is one of two melon halves sitting on your chest. Unless you get significantly larger implants (not recommended), you can never achieve this look. That look is... more

A: Look at your before photos

Darrick E. Antell, MD

I suspect that if you look at your before photos, that there has been substantial improvement. Without the benefit of further information, this result appears to be within the normal range.  Perfect symetry does not exist and I believe a push up bra will give more cleavage than surgery in your case. Every... more
