Is Breast Lift Necessary for Deflated C Cups?

Thank you for the  question and picture.

In  person examination and careful communication will be a critical  step towards achieving your goals. However,  a few general words of advice may be helpful.

Based on experience, I would suggest that your 1st concern should be obtaining the best results possible (scarring concerns should be secondary).  Most patients undergoing this procedure will accept scarring as long as their overall goals in regards to size, shape, contour and symmetry are met. 

In other words, if you select your surgeon based on  the offer of a “limited scar” procedure you may be disappointed with the results.
It will be very important to communicate your overall goals with your surgeon.  In my practice, the use of photographs of “goal” pictures (and breasts that are too big or too small) is very helpful. I have found that the use of words such as “natural” or “C cup” or "fake looking" or "top heavy" means different things to different people and therefore prove unhelpful.
Also, as you know, cup size varies depending on who makes the bra; therefore, discussing desired cup  size may also be inaccurate.
If you decide to use implants ( for example to achieve more superior breast pole volume) 
I use  intraoperative sizers and place the patient in the upright position to evaluate breast size. Use of these sizers also allow me to select the breast implant profile (low, moderate, moderate plus, high-profile) that would most likely achieve the patient's goals. The patient's goal pictures are hanging on the wall, and allow for direct comparison.
I have found that this system is very helpful in improving the chances of achieving the patient's goals as consistently as possible .
By the way, the most common regret after this operation, is “I wish I was bigger”.


I hope this helps.

No one can give you definitive advice without personally seeing you, but from what I can see in the picture implants alone would not be a good long-term solution. In the long run, it can make things worse. Part of the decision about which type of lift is best depends upon the size of the implants, since the larger they are the more they will "re-inflate" the breasts. My guess is that the vertical pattern (lollipop scar) would work best.
