Which is the Best Breast Lift Method for Me? (photo)

I am 20 years old and have not had any children. I am interested in a breast lift, areola reduction, and overall size reduction of my right breast. Which breast lift method would work best for me with the least amount of scarring? - Regnault Mastopexy, Benelli Mastopexy (Peri-areolar Lift), or the dreaded lollipop lift? How much improvement can I expect? How much would it cost? Thank you in advance.

BEST Breast Lift in your case

I largely agree with Dr. Edelson's response. The variety of responses from experienced Plastic surgeons demonstrates that your condition does NOT have a uniform, simple answer and is therefore subject to our experiences. What needs to be considered is your - young age - the fact you have yet to complete your family (and have undergone the breast changes seen in the process). - You have large areolae which occupy a large portion of the surface of the breasts - your breasts are... more

Full lift

It is certain that you need a lift. You can have a definite improvement with a periareolar lift, or Benelli lift which will tight your breasts. To get a reduction of the right breast and to get your breasts up on our chest, you will need a full lift (mastopexy) including elevating the position of the nipple areolar coplex,and tightening the skin on the underside of your breasts to push them up on your chest where they are supposed to be as well as allow you to... more

Breast lift

The assume try you have is impossible to correct without scars at all. I'm not a big fan of Benelli lift and think that it would not lift the right areola enough. I can understand why you do not want the scars of a mastopexy. If you were my daughter, I would advise against any surgery at all in your situation. You are too young for the scars to be a worthwhile trade off at this stage of your life. as symmetry of the breasts is extremely common. I would suggest you... more

Not all Breast Lift Techniques will give you the same outcome

Hi there- It is very important to your long term happiness that you understand a few things (as once performed, the changes in your breasts after a lift may be impossible to reverse): While there are many ways to "lift" a breast, each technique will necessarily be associated with a particular change in the breast shape and position. This is, in fact, why there are so many different techniques in the first place... As this is the case, the best way to determine the... more

Regnault breast lift gives best results.

Hi. The Regnault lift does have lollipop scars, but they fade and women don't dread them. This operation will give you the best long term shape and symmetry, because it reshapes the breast internally and does not rely on pulling the skin.. see video

Breast Lift for YOU!!!

Too make the aereolas smaller and then lift the right breast; the peri-aeroler will certainly work for that. You may need to have a Lolipop on the right to get a breast that looks more like the other one. This is not a dreadful scar, honestly. In time the scar fades to match the color of your skin in that area. It heals beautifully and no one will notice if you don't point it out. At least keep an open mind to this. No one wants a visible scar,... more

Which lift is best

Thank you for the photos. Obviously without examining you it's hard to say for sure. I do think you can get nice improvement in the nipple areola position and its reduction with a periareolar lift. This will equalize the breast somewhat, and any additional reduction can be done with liposuction. I would speak to several doctors in your area before proceeding. Good luck.

Mastopexy

Given your age and anatomy look into the periareola lift. problem always with this operation is to find someone that really likes to do this variation. some surgeons down talk it which is why you want some one who does it often.
