A: You will look great with a breast lift

By Andrew T. Cohen, MD - Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon

I would definately do breast lift with an incision around your nipple. I would put the implant in above the muscle and then do a nice lift around the areolar complex. This will reduce the size of your areola and give you a lift. Go above the muscle. Definately see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.... more

A: You may be a good candidate for a circumareolar lift

By David Shafer, MD - Manhattan Plastic Surgeon

From the picture, you look like you may be a good candidate for a circumareolar lift or mastopexy with augmentation. However, it really is hard to tell without examining you in person. Also, please do not be scared of the scars. The most important is the resulting shape which should not... more

A: The right procedure is as important as the scars

By David A. Robinson, MD - Munster Plastic Surgeon

Based on the picture you have submitted, it is somewhat difficult to determine which procedure is best for you. To achieve a better shape and the lift you desire, my best recommendation would be a breast augmentation with a circumareolar mastopexy (incision around the entire areola). This... more

A: For the best result you need a full lift and implants

By Richard P. Rand, MD - Seattle Plastic Surgeon

A crescenteric lift is the most minimal of all lifts and will make your areolae larger. You look as though you need a true full lift from an anatomical standpoint. Discuss this with many surgeons who can examine you. If you want the best shape, do both the full lift and implants. If you... more

A: Look at pictures

By Michael C. Edwards, MD - Las Vegas Plastic Surgeon

I have met 18 year old women who needed a breast lift who had not had children. I would recommend you see a few plastic surgeons and see what your options are. In my personal opinion the crescent lift almost does nothing more than give you a scar and may possibly make a formal breast lift... more

A: Don't try to pick the surgery because of the scars

By Ricardo Izquierdo, MD - Chicago Plastic Surgeon

Your photo shows a moderate amount of ptosis (drooping) and large areolae. A crescent mastopexy would most likely make your areolae vertically longer and not adequately "lift" your breast. At minimum, you would be best served by a periareolar mastopexy (around the entire areola),... more
