I am a size the 34DD and have significant sagging of my breast. I am removing my implants and doing a breast lift. Some doctors claim the internal mesh will help give me better support. Other doctors say they have had to do a lot of revisions due to problems with an internal mesh. They don't recommend it. Please share your thoughts on this subject.

Answer: Breast lift with or without an internal mesh - Please share your thoughts on this subject? Hello @LizbethP thank you for your question. We can develop a surgical plan that takes into account all aspects of the morphology of your breasts in order to obtain the best results in both shape and volume without the use of implants. For more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS

Answer: Breast lift Dear LizbethP, 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. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
