I'm wanting to get a breast enlargement after breastfeeding two children. I am hoping to avoid a lift because of the cost involved. Would it be possible for me to still achieve a nice breast with just using a larger implant?

Answer: Lift with Implants Thank you for your question. Based on your photos, you appear to be a candidate for breast augmentation, which will provide fullness and a subtle lift. The size and type of implant that you choose will depend on your desired level of fullness. You will likely need a mastopexy in conjunction with implants. I recommend discussing these options with your board certified plastic surgeon, who can individualize your treatment plan.

Answer: Breast lift? Thank you for your question and photos. You appear to be a borderline case for a breast lift of the left breast. If you are willing to accept breasts that are NOT lifted but are increased in volume, then you should be able to get a breast augmentation alone. Without lifting the left breast though you will have the same asymmetry that you currently do.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

Answer: Lift or no lift? It really depends on what you want your breasts to look like in the end. In general, trying to create some type of lift with a bigger implant ends in disappointment. Implants alone for you will likely result in just a heavy and still "droopy" appearance for you. But its impossible to say for sure without a better exam. You might be able to "get away" with just an implant on the right side, but the left side appears slightly more ptotic and probably will not make you happy. I would suggest leaving well enough alone or proceeding with both the lift and the implant together.
