Will a breast lift achieve my desired results or should I consider other options? (photo)

You are a great candidate for a breast lift. This will nicely reshape and achieve better proportion. I would not hesitate to proceed. Thank you.

Hello @knitypixy, thank you for your question. Yes you could have great results with the BRALift technique. I link a video to shed more light. However, If you want your results to last you need to take care of your surgery. The results of the procedure last depends on how you take care of your surgery. Gravity always acts on a breast, so we need to be able to define its characteristics well, since when you don't wear a bra, gravity goes downward, stretching the skin, and the heavier, the more the skin will come down.

Hi from Istanbul! You mention that you do not want implants but I wouldn't advise implants for you anyway as you already possess ample breast tissue to achieve a full, solid appearance for your breasts. An inverted T breast lift, or anchor mastopexy, can help realize your vision of plumper, higher-situated breasts without a bra. The upper pole could potentially be supplemented by fat grafting if needed for enhanced fullness. Of course, the most suitable approach would be determined after an in-person consultation.

Thank you for your inquiry! By your photos, it looks like you are a great candidate for a mastopexy (breast lift) procedure. I recommend consultation appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon so we can create a surgical plan targeted towards your specific goals.

I would recommend a breast lift without implants because you have adequate volume and size/shape. I would recommend seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience/adequate training in breast surgery.

Hi knitypixy,
The photo was very helpful. Your breasts have too much skin for their volume, resulting in a vertical descent of the breasts. Your nipples are low, and the areola are spread. A breast lift has the potential to counteract all of these, by removing excess skin, reducing the size of the areola, and moving the nipple to vertically higher position. With the amount of nipple movement, a small amount of breast tissue might need to be removed. However, in general, the lower pole excess breast skin and breast tissue can be re-purposed to provide central fill. A breast lift will not reliably provide long-term upper pole fill, which can only be done with an implant.
I hope this helps.

Based on limited photos - it appears that you would benefit from mastopexy / lift.
I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS for in person exam

You can have a vertical breast lift and fat grafting to the upper pole. This can achieve 1/2 cup more fullness in the upper pole.

Dear knitypixy,
based on your photo, it looks like you would benefit from breast lift. My preferred lift is a lollipop lift when a periareolar won't do (ie greater than 2cm lift required). The lollipop technique was created by a Canadian plastic surgeon named Elizabeth Hall-Findley and treats the breast as a three dimensional structure instead of two dimensions (anchor - lift). Most importantly it does not require the horizontal component scars that the anchor-lift requires and breasts appear much more natural, lifted, and less boxy. Lastly, the lift lasts longer because the lollipop doesn't rely on the skin to hold the breast up, its actually breast tissue thats being brought together to support the breast and hence improves longevity.

The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them 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.

Best Wishes,
