I have had 3 pregnancies, and lost significant volume in my breast. I would like a life and Breast augmentation. Is there a preference in Breast Implants and placement for saggy breasts?
Answer: Breast implants that give a bit of a lift I would have to see you in person but sometimes a lift is not necessary. This is what I do to maximize lift with a breast implant alone:- use silicone cohesive gel implants. The more cohesive the better. I am not sure if these are available yet in the US, but the Allergan Inspira Truform 2 implants are ideal- use high profile implants. The more projection you have, the more lift you will get- have the implants placed in the submammary pocket (under the breast itself). You should have a pinch thickness at the top of your breast of at least 2 cm

Answer: Breast augmentation after pregnancies, connecticut Based on your photo it's not easy to determine whether you would benefit from a breast augmentation or a lift. I would need to examine you and take measurements to help determine a specific plan. Having said that, it does look like you have a lot of volume loss especially in the upper pole of the breast, commonly seen after childbirth and breast feeding. If your nipples are in a good location, you would be a great candidate for a breast augmentation.

Answer: High profile I think that high profile implants work nicely in patients with moderate sagging who want to improve the breast shape but do not want a lift.

Answer: Breast implants for saggy breasts Thank you for your question. It appears from your pictures that you are a good candidate for breast implants with a lift. Without a proper exam it would be difficult to assess what size implants you will need and what type of lift would be needed. I prefer gel implants placed under the muscle and try to choose a mastopexy procedure that will limit the amount of scarring. Good luck in your surgery!

Answer: Breast Augmentation & Lift It’s not unusual for women to have both breast hypoplasia and breast sag following pregnancy. When breast sag is severe, it must be addressed to optimize the surgical result. In some cases, placing the implant on top of the pectoralis muscles can provide a solution for this problem. In the majority of cases, placement of the implant beneath the muscles in combination with breast lift, surgery can provide an excellent result. A variety of options exist for breast implants, but in the majority of cases, smooth walled round silicone and saline implants are preferable. It’s important to consult a board certified plastic surgeon who can perform a physical exam and formulate a plan for treating your condition.
