How much of a lift can be achieved with a donut lift? Deflated and unhappy with size and color of Areola after having children. Doesn't seem like they will return to their original size. Do not want an anchor or lollipop scar. In my late 20's

Answer: Am I a candidate for a donut / benelli lift? How much of a lift can be achieved with this technique? The amount of lift achieved is directly proportional to the amount of scarring. That is, the procedures that have less scarring provide less lift and vice versa. For the degree of sagging shown in your photos, a more standard breast lift would be recommended.

Answer: Am I a candidate for a donut / benelli lift? How much of a lift can be achieved with this technique? Thank you for your pictures and questions. In general a periareolar scar should not be relied upon as doing much "lifting" but more should be used for reduction of the areola. If you push the envelope and try to achieve a lot of lifting with this technique, you end up with severe stretching and widening of the scar as well as flattening of the anterior projection of the breast. In your case, I think you might be best served with an implant to provide volume and then discussing how best to shape the nipple/areola. Discuss with a plastic surgeon in your area.
