I lost perkiness after pregnancy. What can be done.

The simplest solution is an augmentation to reestablish the lost volume.This will produce the least amount of scaring, but will increase your breast size. If you don't want larger breast then vertical mastopexy will improve the shape and the nipple projection.

Lost perkiness after pregnancy

The answer depends on the definition of "perkiness". If you mean lost skin or tissue tone, there is currently no way to actually restore this. If you mean droop of the breast, it doesn't appear that you have drooped enough to justify a lift. If you mean loss of volume or forward projection, this is corrected by an implant. Implants give the illusion of a lift and the breast looks perkier even if the tissue tone or basic characteristics don't change. I would suggest a lowest profile implant... more

Breast lift

If you are willing to go a little larger, then a small implant will give you your fullness back, and take up some of the loose skin.

Best Breast Surgery for Me?

Thank you for the question and pictures. Although it is not possible to provide you with precise advice without direct examination and a full communication of your goals, it seems that you have experienced breast “involutional hypoplasia” after pregnancies. This simply means that your breasts have lost volume; I do not think that your breasts have “drooped” to the point where breast lifting will be necessary. In other words, you should do well with breast... more

Replacing breast fullness after pregnancy

You appear to have just a little post partum volume loss (involution). As you don't have a whole lot of issues about ptosis or descent of the nipple, I would suggest an implant alone would get a good result.

Lost Perkiness Breast Augmentation Needed

Although a bit difficult to determine from the pictures, you appear to have only a deflational component without significant droop. This is good news. You can have breast augmentation without a lift to help with this issue. Find the board certified plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of breast augmentations each year.

Perkiness of breast?

You most likely lost volume or your skin envelope has stretched with pregnancy. You may be a good candidate for an implant to increase the volume. Best to be seen in person. Good luck.

I Feel I Have Lost Perkiness. What Can I Do?

The nipple and areola appear to be in satisfactory position, so I will assume that the changes you note are due to lost volume. If you are under your normal weight, it is possible that you will gain some breast volume back by regaining the lost weight. Otherwise, the approach will be breast enlargement, probably best done in this setting with implants. When you are ready for an in person consultation, RealSelf has listings of surgeons in your area. You should consider cross... more

Loss of perkiness

Hi suzie5, It appears that you lost perkiness partly due to the pregnancy and partly to the illness. Based on your photos, the perkiness was lost mostly due to volume loss. To regain your perkiness you need to reestablish the lost volume. I would in no circumstances consider performing a lift. Not only do you not have enough of a droop to justify a lift, but any type of lift will be short lived and you would very quickly drop to this same... more

Breasts no longer perky

Your breasts have lost their perkiness because of the pregnancy and the weight loss. A breast lift with or without implants can make them look much better if you are otherwise healthy. Good luck. see video

Breast Augmentation

Hello Suzie. You would do well with a breast augmentation. You seem to have lost volume following pregnancy, with no drooping or sagging of the breasts. A breast implant would be ideal to fill up the skin envelope and would help you look perky again. All the best!
