I'm 5 weeks post breast lift and panicking like mad. I had a sub muscular implants and areolar mastopexy 2 years ago for tuberous breasts. This last operation was supposed to give further tightening in one breast where the was still excess breast tissue creating a line across my breast. I've had a 'lollipop' mastopexy and things look odder than ever! The original line is now showing again and the roundness to the outer side has been lost. Also under my breast you can see horizontal creases.

If you had large implants placed; this could be contributing to the problem. You need to wait at least 6 months before considering revision lift and possible smaller implants and additional support from an acellular dermal matrix such as strattice. Donald R. Nunn MD Atlanta...
Breast lifts are pretty universally considered cosmetic. The only coverage that occurs is when it is done to match a reconstructed breast following mastectomy. All the best.
