I would like to get a breast augmentation using silicone implants under the muscle. I really want to avoid getting a breast lift. My breasts have sag and one is larger than the other. They look and feel almost as if they were deflated, and my nipples do not point down. Would I be okay with just the breast augmentation? I added some pictures of myself and some wish pics.
Answer: Augmentation and lift In order to achieve a look similar to your wish photos you will need to consider a lift along with augmentation. This would address the asymmetry in the breasts as well as raise the position of the nipples. The implants would provide the volume. The incisions from a lift are a common concern for patients. They typically heal favorably and are not an issue after they mature.

Answer: Lift or just an augmentation? I would suggest a circum-vertical lift with an implant. An augmentation alone will not get you the result you desire and the benefit of a lift is that it will remove a lot of the breast tissue that is drooping and get you a prettier shape than simply an augmentation alone. The link has a video that you may find helpful.

Answer: Breast augmentation without a breast lift Hello thank you for your question. It is a difficult one to answer based on photos alone. Set up an appointment with your plastic surgeon to go over everything in detail. It really just depends on your expectations and measurements. I would consult your plastic surgeon.

Answer: Do I need a breast lift? You might not need one. I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. They then get to choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.
