Will I Get a Good Result from a Breast Lift Without Implants? (photo)

I am completely opposed to implants, so please dont even try to convince me to get them. I have already made up my mind - NO IMPLANTS... thanks... However, I am still torn on whether its worth the bother to get the lift done? I just want to repostion my nipples. I'm not looking to get any major upper pole or anything like that, and wouldn't even mind if they end up a tad smaller as a result of the lift. I just want to know if its worth the time, money, and not to mention scarring... Thank You!

Lift without implants

It is clear from your question that you understand what the lift will accomplish and what it cannot. You want a more youthful elevated position of the nipple areola complex and are not overly concerned with upper pole fullness. A lift can accomplish your goals. Your photos demonstrate good breast volume which can be shaped during the lifting procedure. Only you can decide if the final result is worth the time, money and scarring. This is directly proportional to how much your breast... more

Beautiful breasts without implants

I couldn't agree with you more. Implants would only make things worse for you in the long run. There is a new technique that is called the Ultimate Breast Lift that reshapes and suspends breasts without the need for a vertical scar. The scars are hidden around the areola and in the natural crease under the breasts. The results are natural and very pleasing to patients. This technique works for all breast and skin types. It's worth looking into. Best wishes, Dr. H more

Yes a breast lift can improve the shape of your breasts

Hello, A breast lift is designed to shape the breast while a breast augmentation is designed to increase the volume of the breast. A breast lift for you can certainly improve the position of your nipple/areola as well as improve the symmetry between the breasts. If done properly, a breast lift can also improve the shape of your breasts by reducing the amount of skin laxity. I have attached a breast lift only before and after link from my website as an example of what... more

Yes you can get good results with breast implants

It is most certainly possible to get beautiful result from a breast lift alone, without a need for breast implants. A breast lift lifts your breasts and reshapes them. If you are happy with the volume of your breasts (size), then adding an implant will not add to your satisfaction and could only lower it by giving you breasts you didn't want. A breast lift, known as vertical sling mastopexy, can give you a great lift and shape that will create an impression of a... more

Will I Get a Good Result from a Breast Lift Without Implants?

A breast lift will result in breasts that do not hang down so far, and the nipple will be elevated into a better position for a more aesthetically pleasing breast shape. Your existing breast tissue will be pushed higher so that there will be some degree of greater fullness behind the new nipple position, in the main or middle portion of your breast. There will be NO greater fullness in the upper portion of your breast, which you say is not important to you, as only implants can... more

Breast Lifting Worth It?

Thank you for the question and picture. Only YOU can answer the question whether breast lifting is "worth it" or not in your specific case. It will come down to how much the the "deformity" (position of the nipples) bothers you versus the costs ( time, money, scarring) associated with fixing the “deformity”. Based on the pictures it is clear that a breast lift will help you by raising the nipple/areola complexes and ... more

Lift without implants

Go for it. You should get a great result with just a lift. Definitely worth it. I never try to talk someone into implants. Your bra size shouldn't really change much at all. If the surgery is done well than the scars should heal thin and flat and eventually blend in well. You will feel sexier and enjoy your breasts more if they are higher, tighter and perkier as I suspect that this is your goal.

Breast lift without implants

From your photo it appears you have adequate breast volume, and I agree with you that you don't need to have a breast augmentation with implants. You could consider a breast lift to reposition the nipples. This procedure could be done in a variety of ways. Excess skin could be removed from around the areolas in a donut shape, resulting in a scar only around the edge of the areola. Or skin could be removed from around the areola and... more

Breast lifting without implants?

Hello, A breast lift will definitely raise the nipple/areola complex and tighten the breast skin envelope. Breast lifts help breast shape and position on the chest, while breast augmentations help increase the volume of the breasts. If you are happy with the size of your breasts or don't mind being slightly smaller after your surgery, a breast lift would certainly be a good option for you without the use of implants.
