I'm in my late 30s, post lift and some weight loss. I have 36 c but want a little firmer and rounder look. Is it okay or even recommended to do procedure?
Answer: Breast lift and implants
It is perfectly fine to have implants placed after you have had a lift done previously. Any tough up work on the breast liftnsuchnas scar revisions or further tightening of the skin could also be done at the same time. It is a commonly done and straightforward procedure.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Combining Mini Ultimate Breast Lift with implants
You desire larger than 36 C breasts and a rounder look and firmer skin tone. Implants can increase the size and give a rounder look. You may be a candidate for Breast Augmentation combined with a Mini Ultimate Breast Lift. This technique hides the scars at the areola-skin junction, reshaped the breast increasing upper pole fullness, cleavage and increases firmness.
Best Wishes,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast Implant improves lift
Placement of a breast implant can definitely improve the result of a breast lift. In addition to filling our any remaining loose skin, which firms up the breast, the implant will create more fullness in the upper breast region (think cleavage). A lift by itself is usually successful in raising the whole breast up and correcting sagging, by tailoring the looser skin covering. However, very often an implant is required to add some volume and increase fullness in the upper area of the breast. Many plastic surgeons have reported that they use an implant in more than 50% of their breast lifts.

Answer: Implants After A Lift Are A Natural
Dear Cheri, Thank you very much for your excellent question. I am glad to see you are returning to see the plastic surgeon who did your Mommy Makeover. He or she would be the exact right person to discuss the particulars with. The breast lift your plastic surgeon already did corrected, I am sure, at least 3 of the 4 elements of a ptotic or droopy breast.
The elements are:
1) the areola is too big;
2) the areola is too low;
3) your breast was hanging on your chest wall;
4) there is no fullness in the upper quadrant of your breast.
Now, the final step would be to go ahead and do the breast augmentation. To get that firmer, rounder look, if you were my patient, I would recommend a silicone breast implant in the subpectoral space to give you a natural, fuller, rounder look. There is no need to remove breast tissue to make room for the implant. An implant behind the muscle will give the appearance of a fuller, rounder breast.
The particulars of how the surgery needs to be done is between you and your Mommy Makeover plastic surgeon. The questions to be answered are: saline vs. silicone; textured vs. smooth; use one of the previous incisions of the lift or go through the armpit endoscopically; whether you go above or below the muscle; what profile the implant should be - from moderate to high.
All the above questions will be answered by your plastic surgeon. If I were you, I would go for it.
