I am 48 and had breast augumentation just over a year ago. I didn't get to do the rice test as my surgery was only a few weeks away from my consultation so I went with the advice of my surgeon. But also had lost quite alot of weight and did have large breasts before hand. He told me I didn't need a uplift?. The surgery went ahead and things was fine until the swelling started to go down then I noticed loose skin and my breasts falls away from the implant. Causing still sagging and sore breasts.
Answer: Breast lift Thank you for the question. It appears that you need a lift to elevate your nipples to a more youthful position and tighten the skin and breasts. I wish you the best of luck. Vasileios Vasilakis, MD. Double board-certified, fellowship-trained plastic surgeon, Houston. TX.

Answer: Breasts You need a lift to remove excess skin and elevate your nipples. I would suggest going with smaller implants so they won't be a large and heavy, plus the lift. Some women have tenderness in their breast tissue which may remain until menopause.

Answer: Breast argumentation just over a year ago and I'm still sore and have sagging skin - advice? hello @lme73 thank you for your question and showing your pictures. With 21 years of experience and from what I see in the photos, I suggest a revision of the surgery and do a breast pexy to rearrange the breast tissue, raise the areola and nipple improving the shape of the breast and if necessary and according to your goals remove current prothesis and put new ones to give more volume and projection.The amount of breast tissue changes proportional to weight, pregnancy, lactation, heredity, or hormonal changes. Before The plastic surgeon must assess the individual characteristics of the patients breasts, as well as the general condition of the woman for the correct indication of the intervention. Best wishes!

Answer: Weight loss and breast augmentation Congratulations on your weight loss! Losing a significant amount of weight can have important implications for breast augmentation results over the long term. One common side effect of significant weight loss is loss of skin elasticity. The reduced skin elasticity reduces the mechanical strength of the skin, reducing its ability to withstand stress. When a person has a breast augmentation, the implant imparts stress on the skin by virtue of the weight of the device. Studies that look at weight loss patients who have had breast augmentation report a higher risk of needing future breast operations including mastopexy (breast lift) in the months or years after surgery. Your photos and description suggest you would benefit from a breast lift. You may also benefit from placing support around your implants to help reduce the stretching effect of the implant on your skin.
