800cc Breast Implants with Breast Lift for Patient with Slight Ptosis?

I have a hard time focusing on your question, as I can't get past the size of the implant your choosing. 800cc implants are gigantic. Not only will they look incredibly unnatural, but they will stretch out your breast tissue, supporting ligaments and skin. If you ever want them out, you will certainly need an extensive lift to deal with the loss of elasticity of breast skin.
If you currently need a breast lift, then you should get a breast lift. You should not overcompensate with really large implants.
Best of luck.

If your breasts don't sag now, they certainly will after placement of the 800 cc implant and passage of time.

Hi there-
I think you need to very carefully consider the long term implications of using such large implants....
If these were not described to you, you should probably ask why...
The average woman would be much better off having a well performed breast lift and more reasonably sized implants.

800 cc implants are the largest ones available. They are quite large and may cause you to sag even more after surgery.

It sounds like you are quite unclear about your options and very uneducated on the consequences of having the biggest implants on the market placed in you.
IF you have sagging breasts, then you need a Lift.if you have need for more volume you would benefit from an augmentation.If you need both a lift and volume you would benefit from either a single procedure or a staged Lift / Breast Augmentation.
For the vast majority of women 800cc implants are a REALLY BAD idea. They will be associated with visible ripples, wasting of the breast glands, rapid sagging, and earlier deflation
Think it over.

It is very rare to do this large of an implants but not unheard of. Get breast implants first then the, breast lift if needed. Regards.

You can choose to do the implants or the lift as a first procedure. You said the ptosis is slight, so, depending on how slight, it might turn out that you do not care to do a lift after the augmentation.
However, if the ptosis is a little too much you might want to do this first; it all depends on what your priorities are.
Many times the lift and implants are done at the same time. Is there a reason not to do them together?
Make sure you have been well informed about large breast implants and make sure this is what you want.

Your situation sounds too complex to give a pat answer to.
You have to decide wjhat it is that you want and your plastic surgeon can tell you how to get there if it is possible. If you do not like the answer then either you and/or he will need to alter your opinion as to the results or the way to get there.

If I want to go to Europe for a vacation but I do not want to fly, the only other way is to take a boat or dont go. Alternatively I could go to Canada by car or train. Or I could go to Europe by boat.

800 cc implants are really, really big and will irreversibly stretch out your skin. I would urge you to rethink the decision to go so large. You may be initially pleased with your appearance, but with so much stretch of the breast tissue you will almost certainly require further surgery with more incisions at some point. Breast lifts can be performed after augmentations if needed. I suggest discussing the implant size and breast lifts with your plastic surgeon who can give you a better idea of what to expect based upon your physical examination. Good luck.

Many of my patients request very large implants. I guess it is California!? You want to make sure that you realize that the larger the implants, the greater possibility of problems such as firmness and eventual ptosis or droopiness of the breasts due to the increase weight of the implants. Also, implants do not correct ptosis, just "push" forward what breast tissue and shape you have.
So, if you are droopy now, you may need a conservative peri-aroelar uplift. Since this incision ends up being larger than a standard breast implant incision, it would be suited for placing the larger silicone implants. This uplift could be done at the same time as the implantation. I hope this helps!
