I had a breast reduction w/lift in 2019. After this, I gained a significant amount of weight and my breasts went up to a 38DD. Over the last couple years, I have lost almost 100lbs and w/that weight loss, I also lost my breasts (they deflated) I recently had a breast aug w/450 CC and 425 CC. I told surgeon I wanted to fill out the emptiness in my breasts. He said lift was not needed. I am now unhappy that they sag + middle part looks awful. Will lift correct this? Is 2nd lift possible?
Answer: Breasts No, not with the size of implants you now have. Your breasts naturally sit low on your chest and the bases cannot be raised. However, if you go smaller, the excess skin can be tightened, and the inferior pockets can be raised. With your weight loss, your own tissue has been stretched and thinned and will not support heavy breasts.

Answer: Breast Revision Thank you for your question. A large portion of my practice is dedicated to revisionary breast surgery Over many years, I developed a technique called "Reductive Augmentation" in which an internal bra-capsulorrhaphy, mastopexy - lift, and removal of inferior pole breast tissue is performed. This procedure is particularly suitable for patients who would like a more round appearing breast and upper pole fullness. I have treated many patients with very similar breast issues as yours. I published this technique in the International Journal of Aesthetic Surgery in 2017. Best wishes to you,

Answer: Breast lift You have very large implants for your body type. Most of the implant volume rests below the areola and your nipple position is not bad. Basically, the skin in the lower pole of the breast has stretched. I'm suggest (1) much smaller implants (2). breast lift to yield a nipple to fold distance of about 7 cm (3) pocket revision to downsize the implant pocket and use an internal bra mesh support (Durasorb or Galaflex) to keep the low pole skin from stretching again.

Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method Your breasts are low on the chest wall and have bottomed out. 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, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.
