Ultimate Breast Lift is an alternative technique for lifting breasts

Hi, There is a new technique that has been developed for women who are afraid of the standard Weis, anchor, le jour, short scar, etc. that do not provide upper pole fullness, have no longevity, and have unsightly visible scars. I am guessing this is why you are shying away from a lifting procedure. The Ultimate Breast Lift was developed using a background in engineering to best solve the effects of gravity on breasts. There is NO VERTICAL scar. Incisions are hidden around the... more

Breast surgery options

A photo would be very helpful to determine what possible options would be best for you depending on what results you would like to achieve. A large enough implant could provide somewhat of a lift for you, however, to remove some stretchmarks and provide a perky and fuller look, a breast lift procedure may be beneficial for you. There are different lifting procedures involving less invasive incisions. Some women would like to reduce the size of the areola as well and so we use a... more

The different options in breast lift surgery

You may not need a breast lift.

Hi! In New York City, we do breast lifts only when women have significant saging. That's not what you are describing, so you may well not need a breast lift. I don't know what to recommend without seeing you. Many women develop "empty" breasts. But the bad news is that stretch marks -- in general -- cannot be removed.

Thermage or fractionated lasers

Non-invasive treatments such as Thermage or fractioned lasers may help - you would need to see a surgeon os clinic which offers these treatments to see if you are an appropriate candidate.

There are no alternatives to a real breast lift

For those women seeking a lift of their breasts after having children or with age, nothing really beats a breast lift. By definition, a breast lift will rearrange the breast tissue and reshape the breast so that it is perkier, lift the nipple and areola to a higher and more aesthetic position on the breast, and remove excess drooping skin. The result of a breast lift is often similar to a lift you achieve when you are wearing a bra. What a breast lift will NOT do is add more... more
