A donut mastopexy only lifts skin and will not produce any type of significant shaping of the breast. Most of the vertical techniques rely on the skin envelope to reshape the breast. Skin has proven to be too weak of a structure to hold breast shape or position. The Horndeski Method/The Bellesoma Method actually constructs an internal cone (to give shape similar to that of a breast implant) and designs an internal bra made from your own tissues to provide longevity to the lift. There are no foreign materials used. Attached is an example of a woman who underwent this procedure who did not want implants or the vertical incision. Feel free to view my gallery for patients that share your dimensions for a realistic result. I hope this helps. Best wishes and kind regards,
Candidates for Breast Lift (#Mastopexy) surgery are women who have #saggingbreasts due to past pregnancies, genetics, or aging. Often times the sagging is too great to be treated by implants alone. Women with asymmetric or enlarged nipples or areolae (pigmented areas around nipples) also may be candidates for a breast lift or a modification of a lift. #Asymmetric breast can be adjusted by adding or removing volume. One side can be tightened more or less than another.Intended ResultA mastopexy or breast lift operation is designed to improve the shape and position of the breast without reducing their size. It is used for breasts which sag or droop (ptosis). Sagging of the breasts may occur with normal development for some women, or as part of the aging process. Pregnancy, breast-feeding and weight loss are other conditions which increase breast ptosis. Some patients will have a better shape to their breast such as increased superior fullness if an implant is used at the time of mastopexy. The procedure can also be combined with a minor breast reduction to reduce the breast width if desired. The surgery will create an elevated, more youthful breast contour. Also, the procedure will create nipple and areolae of the desired size and at the correct height. I prefer to use a #shortscar technique, #LollipopScar or #DonutLift” rather than the majority of surgeons in the United States that use an anchor pattern lift which involve more significant scarring.
True Grade 1 ptosis is usually amenable to augmentation alone if there is no pseudoptosis. The donut lift will only give about 1 to 2 cm of areolar lift but will not really help with any skin laxity.
Thank you for your question about breast lift. Pictures would be helpful.No one can give you a good answer without pictures. A Benelli or doughnut breast lift is very limited in the amount of lift that can be performed, usually about 2 cm.To be sure, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have breast lift surgery.I hope this helps.
A doughnut lift may be sufficient although you would need to be examined (in person, preferably) to make sure. Even within grade 1 ptosis, there are varying degrees, so a photo would be helpful.
