Am I a good candidate for a crescent lift with implants? (Photos)

I'm looking to go quite large, as large as I can go honestly. I don't mind some sagging or drooping but wondering if I could get away with just a crescent lift with implants?

The photos show red, raised-looking scars around the areola with irregular pigment change in the areolar skin. At 14 months, some fading and softening can still occur, but pigment loss that persists this long may not completely return on its own. The first step is an in-person exam with your...

With breast implant downsizing, there may be increased skin laxity and ptosis. For minimal elevation of the nipple, some patients are candidates for periareolar or donut mastopexy, while the majority are better suited by a vertical or Anchor incision. The downside with donut mastopexy is wide...

The photos show visible anchor/periareolar scars and some shape asymmetry after lift with implants. At 9 months, scars can still improve, but thick, widened, red, or tender scars may benefit from targeted scar treatment rather than waiting passively. Your new tenderness, discomfort, and the...

A true breast lift always requires removing and reshaping skin, so it will leave scars. The question is not whether there will be scars, but which scar pattern is needed for the amount of lift and reshaping you need. For very mild nipple elevation, a periareolar/donut lift may keep the scar...

The photo appears to show Metabolife Ultra. I would not take this type of weight-loss supplement close to a breast augmentation and lift unless your surgeon and anesthesia team specifically clear it. Many weight-loss aids contain caffeine or stimulant-like ingredients, and even “natural” sup...

From the photos, I do not see an obvious severe degree of sagging, but photos and 3D simulation are not enough to decide this definitively. The key measurements are where the nipple sits relative to the breast fold, how loose the lower pole skin is, and whether the implant alone would leave the...
