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.

The different options in breast lift surgery

This mastopexy may be performed through a periareolar incision that will leave a small scar around the perimeter of your areola.

It depends on your goals

If you want your breasts to be perkier without implants, some form of a breast lift is your best option. If you are interested in an implant you may not need a lift. The best course of action is to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgero so you can get a first hand idea of what all of your options are. Dr Edwards

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.

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.
