Breast implant reduction - can I reduce them to 900cc? Will I need a lift again?

These balls are much too large and heavy for your frame and tissue, and 900 cc's will still be too large and heavy. However, you have now stretched your own tissue thinly and may have to stay with large implants. Your surgeon can examine you to see if a lift is an option. It might not be safe to your nipples to do such.

Dear ciarafox,
breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.

Even if you reduce your implants to 900 cc's, that is 2 lbs. each. The only thing holding up implants that large is the skin envelope and it will not last and will definitely fail. At this time, I recommend explantation and lift using The Bellesoma Method. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery. Later, small implants can be placed totally submuscular if additional volume is desired.
