I'm 20 years old, 5'7" and 120 pounds, around a 28ff bra size, and have never had children. I'm not exactly sure what caused my sagging breasts, but all I want to know now is the best way to fix it. Would a breast lift alone be okay, or would it be better with implants too? I don't mind either way, I might prefer to get implants but am still unsure about that. I just want to find the best option for me before making a conclusive decision. Thank you.
Answer: Best Lift for Large Sagging Breasts
Thank you for your question. Certainly a Breast Lift or Dermal Mastopexy will lift your nipple and give your Breast a nice shape. You have enough Breast tissue for a lift alone.
However, often after a lift alone patients complain that they do not have enough fullness above the nipple and cleavage. In these cases a small implant will help.

Answer: Best Fix for Sagging Breasts
Larger breasted women certainly retain enough volume in their breasts after a lift to still fill a decent cup size. However, a breast lift will not result in an increase in the upper pole volume. The tissues simply will not stay in the area close to the collar bone. This is where an implant comes in handy. The implant will increase the volume in this area and give a much rounder appearance to the breast.
I also remind my patients to keep in mind that there is only so much weight we can add to the breasts before putting too much pressure on the back and shoulders. Your surgeon should advise you on how best to meet your expectations without causing any unnecessary discomfort.

Answer: Breast Lift with Implants
A breast lift would definitely help your contours and give you the lift you want. Adding implants would increase upper pole fullness, but do not forget that it makes your bra bigger.

Answer: Breast Lift and Breast Reduction
In younger patients with rather large and droopy breasts it is rather important to find out a little more about patients developmental history. In someone that’s quite young and rather thin with significant breast enlargements it might not be appropriate to place an implant at the time of breast breast surgery. It appears that you have an adequate amount of breast tissue to achieve more attractive, more symmetrical and uplifted breasts without an implant. There are a number of other considerations to discuss in your particular case. Make sure you see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with lots of experience with Breast Surgery. Do not by shy about asking to see lots of before and after photos, so that you can judge the surgeon’s work.
