I have one child and breast fed for about 10 months. I wear size 34A bra. I am 5'6 and about 110-113 pounds. I am fine with having small breasts but I can't stand the loose skin, especially on my right breast. Will Benelli breast lift help? I really do not want breast implants. What are my options? Thanks.
Answer: A Benelli Lift will give you modest results I for one really do not like using anything other than very small implants with a Benelli lift. If you are looking for subtle changes and don't want implants, then a Benelli may be a good option.

Answer: The right implants could work instead It looks like your breasts can become perkier with the right implants, instead of getting a breast lift. You can also consider breast augmentation with fat transfer.

Answer: California Breast Lift = Lift with Fat Transfer The key to success lies in letting you surgeon know specifically what you would like to look like following the surgery. For example, how perky do you want to be, what shape do you want to have, etc.? However from your description it would appear that a lollipop type lift would be best for you rather than a periareolar lift like the Benelli procedure. Here is a rule of thumb that works for most patients. If you nipple is above your lower breast crease then often a periareolar lift will be sufficient for most patients. If your nipple is at or below your crease then a vertical lift (lollipop lift), inverted T or anchor pattern may be required.In your particular case, you might want to also consider fat transfer as an alternative to breast augmentation to complement your planned lift. See the below link for more details.

Answer: Benelli lift? I believe that you are a great candidate for breast augmentation. With the right choice of implants you may not need to have a breast lift that would require additional incisions.

Answer: Benelli Lift No two patients are the same and everyone’s situation is slightly different. Occasionally patients are seen who have minimal amounts of loose skin and breast sag. When this situation arises, the benelli lift is an excellent option. This procedure will tighten the skin and minimally lift the areola into a higher position. The procedure can be done in combination with breast augmentation when indicated. The results are good with this procedure when the indications are appropriate. Occasionally, the procedure is asked to do more then is reasonable. Under these circumstances wide scars can result. If you’re considering this type of procedure, consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is appropriate. This surgeon should be able to help you formulate an appropriate treatment plan.

Answer: Will a Benelli breast lift only help me? Thank you for your questions and for your photograph. The short answer is yes, a Periareolar mastopexy would help tighten the skin and could allow some elevation of the right nipple-areola which is lower than the left. It would probably not get rid of all the skin laxity, but might be an improvement. I respect your desire not to have breast implants, but this is a situation where the addition of volume such as an implant can often be of help to fill out the loose skin. For small augmentations some are turning to fat grafting of the breast which utilizes your own fat to enhance the volume. At present, it is still controversial because fat grafting can lead to calcifications that may be confused with breast cancer. It may not be appropriate for you because by your statistics you are very slender and of course you would need an area for fat to be harvested from. Best wishes
