my breasts (34H) have mild/moderate ptosis and some asymetry. I'm considering breast lift but dont want reduction. I was recently to surgeons consultation on other topic, and I mentioned breast lift. He said when he does lift on large chest he gets rid of 40% of tissue cause if not, weight will sag it again. did he mean that breast lift on large chest cant be done w/o reduction or that it's technically possible but he doesnt do it bcz of risk of sagging again? (he didnt examine me)
Answer: Breast Lift Without Reduction Thank you for your question. A breast lift can be done without needing a reduction. However, on large breasts, the weight of the breast tissue may affect the long-term results of a breast lift without reduction. If the breast tissue is not decreased during the lift, the sagging might happen again. The surgeon's plan may depend on your anatomy, the desired outcome, and experience level. Thus, a thorough consultation with a board-certified surgeon is necessary.

Answer: Tissue removal during a lift Additional tissue removal is not necessary when a lift is performed on larger breasts. It may be that the surgeon you spoke to does it to minimize the risk of sagging after surgery.

Answer: Breast lift vs breast reduction This is a great question. It is important to know that a breast reduction does not only mean that you reduce the volume of your breast, but also that your contouring it, and lifting it. Therefore, a breast reduction almost always includes a lift. Sometimes, all you need is a lift, but that depends what your goals are and if your goals are to maintain the same volume and just lift it up, that is possible. A proper exam would be able to determine the next best step, so feel free to reach out if you have any further questions!

Answer: Surgery Yes, you can have just a lift without a reduction. However, at size H, you will just sag again from the heavy weight of your breasts. I would suggest a reduction so you can be a size that is comfortable, much easier to find clothes that fit, and will avoid sagging much longer than size H. Insurance may cover your reduction.
