Horrible outcome after breast lift-augmentation

Thank you for the photos. I'm not sure how large you were prior to your augmentation, but now you are huge. Maybe you and your surgeon decided on the wrong operation for you. In your case it would've been better to stage your procedure. First do a breast lift and about 6 months later procede with an augmentation if you still wanted to be larger. Unfortunately, it seems that you are bottom heavy (without seeing your preop photo, I assume you were saggy off the chest).At this point,... more

Breast revision

Your photographs show large breasts, marked hanging and separation of the nipples after lollipop lift. You would be much better off with a breast reduction or repeat lift. This can be done, despite the fact that you have already had an operation. Certainly, you need your breasts higher on the chest wall and upper pole fullness. Perkiness can be achieved with a new technique called The Ultimate Breast Lift. The advantage of this technique is that there are NO... more

Breast lift and augmentation

It looks like you had surgery fairly recently and unfortunately had some secondary healing. I suggest you let things heal and settle down and then consider a scar revision or procedure revision. Good luck.

Breasts in need of expert help!

I feel for you because this is obviously not what you had hoped for. Regardless of what you and your surgeon discussed beforehand or what you looked like pre-operatively, this is not a good result. Unfortunately, the only way to correct this would be more surgery. Time will heal the open wounds, but not fix the other major issues. I would recommend you consult with other plastic surgeon that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery... more

Horrible result after breast lift and augmentation

No one wants an unplesant surprise after a breast lift and all surgery takes good communication and planning. Your photo shows a result that is very large, perhaps a G-cup, and if this was not your goal things have gone quite wrong in your eyes. Perhaps you really did not want or need the augmentation. Time to make your wishes known to your surgeon.

Breast Lift/Augmentation Problems

At this point, I would let everything heal for 4 to 6 months before considering any surgery to improve your shape. The separation of your incision should heal within a few weeks. You will probably need to revise the mastopexy to improve the shape. It is difficult to determine why an implant was used in you as you seem to have a lot of your own breast tissue. I would recommend that you discuss with your surgeon and get other opinions from board-certified plastic... more

My Breast List and Augmentation Looks Horrible. What Can I Do?

Based upon the posted photo are you sure you had ONLY a lift vs a reduction And why would you place an implant. Posting before photos would really help determine exactly what was done. It appears as a poorly done reduction but it may depend on the size before the operation. If you were gigantic in size than this could be interpreted as an acceptable result. Need you input.

What was the plan here???

I can't really imagine why the plan for you wasn't a breast reduction and lift rather than a breast augmentation and lift. Folks like you can never seem to achieve the upper pole fullness they want because their bodies lack the tightness and elasticity to hold the implants up there. They just sag down and look matronly. The implants also stretch you and this challenges the lift tightening as you can see from the incisions of yours that fell apart. You need to... more
