Without a lift I'm wondering if just inserting something large such as implants will also pull up a little skin on the upper stomach right below the breasts?
Answer: By inserting breast implants, does that naturally lift up skin under your breasts? Upper ribs? It's a good question. It's important to know that implants don't lift your breasts. In person examination, careful measurements, and a good understanding of your goals is used to determine when a lift should be added to an augmentation surgery. The attached link discusses how I help my patients decide when a lift is needed along with their breast augmentation surgery.

Answer: By inserting breast implants, does that naturally lift up skin under your breasts? Upper ribs? Thank you for your excellent question. Looking at your full profile and pictures you are starting from a very nice point and should anticipate an excellent appearance from a breast augmentation. You do not appear to have much skin along your upper abdomen or below your breasts, but do have a shorter distance from your areola to your breast crease. Depending on the size of implant you select you can anticipate some lifting of the upper abdominal skin and as a result i would place your augmentation incision 0.5cm or so below your crease. Hope this helps.

Answer: Do implants lift breasts? Good question. To a very small extent the answer is yes. The caveat being if you need a true lift, the implant alone will not accomplish this for you. The volume of the implant will fill out deflated tissue which can reposition the nipple / areola to a better position but not fully without a surgical lift.best

Answer: Larger Implants Do Not Eliminate The Need For A Lift Simply placing larger implants in a patient who needs a breast lift will not accomplish much except to make the breasts larger. The implants do not raise the tissues at all. They can give the perception that the breast is raised for a while since it is fuller, but over time the added size simply pulls the breast down to where it sits already. Consequently, you have a larger breast that still sits lower. The best thing to do is to have a few consultations with board certified plastic surgeons and see what is recommended. I hope this helps.

Answer: Will breast implants lift skin on the upper abdomen/stomach area? Breast implants will lift breast tissue but will not cause tissues on the upper abdomen to be lifted in a lasting manner. There may be some initial tightening but this will not last. Sorry, but breast implants are not a solution for loose upper abdomen skin.
