My breast are heavy and have been so since my early teens. I plan to have a redution with a lift. But I never see any before/afters that I like. The breasts just don't look full to me. And will the implant cause the back pain/fatigue that I always have?
Answer: Fat Transfer instead of Implant with Breast Reduction Yes this is possible and may be recommended if you wish to be more full on top. A small implant can still give you overall smaller less heavy but still full breasts. However there are other ways to accomplish this at the time of your Breast Lift/Breast reduction. If you have been considering a Breast Lift, Reduction or improving your appearance after breast augmentation but are not comfortable with introducing artificial material into your body, you may want to look into the benefits of breast augmentation with fat transfer. An alternative to breast implants is fat transfer also known as fat grafting or lipoinjection. This technique allows women the option of enhancing the appearance of their breasts without the potential problems of saline or silicone implants such as hardness, rippling or rupture.Who is a candidate?Any woman who is healthyWomen with sufficient body fat for the procedureWomen considering breast augmentation who wish to be one cup size larger or lessWomen who have had breast augmentation or reconstruction but who lack fullness or have contour concerns. Fat transfer can further enhance and reshape your breasts while smoothing out visible or palpable edges of breast implants. This will disguise implant rippling and wrinkling.Women with normal mammographySee the below links for more details:

Answer: Breast reduction/lift (mastopexy) with augmentation Based on the severity and complexity of the case, a breast lift/reduction may be done to help improve the shape and size of the breasts followed by an augmentation as well to provide fullness and volume. It doesn't necessarily have to be a large implant. A smaller implant can provide roundness and fullness while still looking natural and not affectting the weight and heaviness which causes back and shoulder pain. The procedures may be done at one time or may be done at seperate stages. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best and safest possible options for your particular case. It is important that you emphazise the look you want to achieve to your surgeon. Finding photos of what you would like to look like can help your surgeon determine whehter implants would be benficial for you. Good luck!

Answer: Breast implants and breast lift or breast reduction Breast implants do provide fullness to the central and upper pole of the breast. if a patient is left with inadequate breast volume after a breast reduction or mastopexy they might need to have breast implants. You can potentially develop neck and/or back pain if you have very heavy breasts (either from very large implants or from large and heavy breast tissue).
