42 yo. After giving birth to my daughter 3 years ago, my breasts had gone from C to DDD overnight. I have no stretch marks, but over the past 2.5 years my breasts slowly "deflated " to what you see on the pictures. I would love to correct the sagginess and get a fuller look, but want minimal scarring (no vertical). Is it possible?

Answer: Am I a candidate for periareolar breast lift and implants? Hello and thank you for your question. I would avoid a peri-areolar llift in your case. I think you will have a better result with either a vertical lift, also known as 'lollipop' lift, and full Wise-pattern lift, know as 'anchor' lift. I would seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation and advice. Best,

Answer: Circumareolar lift? Thank you for your question and photos. An in-person evaluation is always best, but from what I see on the photos you appear to have a significant degree of ptosis (sagging). This is very difficult to correct with a peri-areola lift. When you use that technique on the wrong patient, she is left with very wide areolas, wide areolar scars, and a flattened breast. I generally limit the use of this technique to someone with very mild ptosis that needs only 1-2cm of nipple movement. You would likely be better served by a vertical type lift with a lollipop or inverted “T” scar. Good luck.
