I'm considering surgery. My bra size now is 32D, but my breast lack fullness. Not a lot of droop. I have 2 kids also recently lost 35lbs. With a very good bra I look OK but the top part of the bra is hollow cause my boobs are puddling in the bottom of the bra.

My husband is worried they will not feel "real". With a lot of tissue to work with could I achieve natural results?

Natural-feeling breast enhancement

It sounds like you would benefit from a mastopexy or breast lift. Hopefully, lifting your breasts will still leave you with a cup size that you like. If not, then you could also undergo augmentation at the time of mastopexy. A mastopexy will "feel" normal since it is your own tissue without an implant. If a small implant is placed at the time of lift, the "feel" would probably also be fine. It is when large implants are placed in patients with very little breast... more

Breasts and lack of fullness

If you do not have a lot of fullness, you may need an implant. Some women fill the cup but are really mostly skin.. An exam would be helpful.

Placing large breast implants in large breasts may be more prone to revision surgery due to changes in the brest independient from the implant over time as well as the inevitablity of ptosis with time..

This is a difficult problem for which some surgeons are using tat to selectively augment the upper poriton of the breast.

Natural Breast Enhancement

With a 32D bra size, I would have to agree that you have " a lot of tissue to work with." The basic question you need to ask yourself is, Do I want bigger breasts (more volume) or do I want to reposition them in an upward direction?" If you want more volume, then an implant is a necessary part of the plan. If you are mainly interested in an upward shift in the breast profile, then a mastopexy would be the appropriate recommendation. It is true that an implant and a mastopexy... more

Can breast implants feel natural?

Hi there- It is very important that you visit with a responsible and board certified plastic surgeon, as there are several variables that would affect how this question is answered, including the relative importance to you of upper pole fulness, maintaining the breast size you have now or increasing the size, improving the nipple position, and several others...

Natural Breast Implants

There really is no way to add fullness without adding an implant. However, these days silicone implants placed under the muscle can give a very natural result. Unnatural results occur when people try to put implants that are too big or to wide for the patient.

Breast implants for fullness

If you are a "D" already, as you mentioned and your breast is "puddling in a bra"...you might be a candidate for a breast lift instead. An implant can certainly increase fullness, but you need to be examined to give better advice.

Breast implants can help upper breast fullness

You may be able to achieve upper breast fullness with an implant. The more natural breast tissue that you have to begin with will determine the "naturalness" in the feeling of your breasts post-operatively. This will also depend on which type of implant you select, with silicone implants having a more natural feel. The third factor is whether the implant is placed over or under your pec muscle. This would be determined at your consultation with an appropriate examination. Women... more
