Hello, I'm considering Breast Implants without doing a Breast Lift. And wanted to know the alternatives/options for women with saggy breast that wish NOT to perform a breast lift. I'm looking to achieve a full D maybe BABY DD look.I'm a 34 full saggy B/C. My breast width is a 12", I'm 5'7", 138lbs, rib cage 29". I'm interested in silicone. Should women in my situation go mod+ or HP(High Profile) for the upper fullness & do saggy breast women have to go higher in CC to fill out the breast?

Answer: Options to avoid a lift While an implant can allow patients with a small amount of sagging to avoid a breast lift, unfortunately you won't be able to achieve a satisfactory result without a lift. An implant alone, no matter the size or how it is placed, will not give you a result you will be happy with. Best of luck.

Answer: Breast Implant Options for Saggy Breasts Without Breast Lift? Thank you for your question. There are some women who will benefit from adding a breast lift to a breast augmentation. In general, if your nipple is located at or above the crease below your breast then a lift is typically not needed. In addition to nipple position, measurements are also used to determine when to add a lift. Breast sagging is a spectrum and women with mild/moderate sagging can sometimes go either way. In this situation, I typically recommend breast augmentation as an initial procedure, waiting six months, and then only performing a breast lift if it is truly needed. When considering breast augmentation make sure you find a board certified plastic surgeon who will take the time to answer all of your questions and explain all of your options, so that you can decide which procedures are right for you.

Answer: Breast Implant Options for a Sagging Breast without a Breast Lift Thank you for your photo. The photo shows that your nipple and areola are below the breast fold where the wire of your bra would be. This is an easy well to tell whether you need a breast lift. When the nipple is that low, placing even large implants will result in a large, saggy breast. You should reconsider having a breast lift with implants. Good Luck!

Answer: Would recommend a lift Although many women understandably want to minimize scars (as do we plastic surgeons). if you have a certain amount of droopiness (grade 2 or 3 ptosis with the nipple just below or lower beneath your breast fold) then a lift is indicated. For women that are full breasted enough, then a lift alone may be sufficient albeit with a slight reduction in volume/cup size/If you are looking for added fullness that the best choice is a combination of a lift and implants. Based on your photos likely you will need a vertical mastopexy ("lollipop lift") and an implant in the range of 400+ CC. A higher profile implant is best when performing a lift especially if you are looking for a D/DD result.

Answer: Implants or Implants with a Breast Lift Thank you for your question and your supplemental photo. From the picture you provided it appears as though an implant alone will not provide you with much of a lift. The best way to judge whether or not a lift is required is to assess where the nipple is located in relation to the infra-mammary breast fold. Implants will only provide a lift for patients with very minimal droop, as the true purpose of the implant is to provide a patient with additional volume. In order to provide you with a fuller and more perky breast shape, an implant with a breast lift would be required. Good luck!
