Can Breast Implants Be Added to Already D Size Breasts to Fill out Lost Breast Tissue Instead of a Breast Lift?

I have recently lost about 90 lb which is great, but of course I now have a lot of extra skin. The biggest issue for me is the loss of breast volume. I've always had great breasts, about a size 44E or G. Now I am about a 40D or a little smaller, with 22 lb left to lose. My question is, instead of a lift, would it be possible to simply add implants to go back up to about a double D (DD)? The scars of implants are much less visible than those of a lift, and I'm hoping that would be an option.
