Will I Be Happy with a Breast Lift Alone and No Implant?

March 22, 2009
Asked By:overthere23 in austin, tx

I am a 36 yr old mom of 2, currently a D cup and happy with my size. My beasts are saggy and have lost all upper volume. My nipples don't point down, but they are low and definitely need to be moved up. The doctor I visited said I only need a lift, but I can't help but wonder if I will be happy with out a small implant. I would have an anchor scar and he said something about an "internal bra" so that they would be "perkier" and that is why I wouldn't need an implant.
