Breast lift with no implants - what can I do to get upper pole fullness? (Photos)

Question

I had a breast lift with no implants. After the lift, my upper pole was full but now I noticed that it flattened out. Is this because of something I didn’t do or is it because of my skin. What can I do to get that upper pole fullness? Do I get another surgery? Any non surgical procedures recommended ? Or is it a hopeless situation?

Thank you for your inquiry!  We would love to meet with you to discuss your goals.  It sounds like you are looking for volume to fill the space.  A fat transfer or some Alloclae would be an option for you.  Schedule a consult with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon to help you reach your goals.

Thank you for your question. The initial fullness is due to the swelling that occurs right after the surgery. As the swelling subsides, the fullness disappears. My recommendation for you would be breast İmplants to create the fullness. Best of luck to you.

Breast lifts can be challenging procedures because the results evolve over time. I always counsel patients that a mastopexy (breast lift) will reshape the breast and reposition the nipple to a more central, youthful location. However, the procedure relies on skin and breast tissue that previously failed to support the breast, so some degree of settling and stretching is expected as the tissue adjusts to its new shape.
Most of this settling occurs in the first 3 months, with more subtle changes continuing up to 6–12 months. One of the most common concerns during this process is a loss of upper pole fullness. Experienced surgeons often anticipate these changes by tightening the lower pole and placing the nipple slightly lower than the final desired position, knowing that the breast will change over time&mdash;but individual healing and tissue quality can make results somewhat unpredictable.
The good news is that in plastic surgery, very few situations are truly hopeless. There are several excellent options to improve your result:
1. Breast Implants: Adding an implant can restore upper pole fullness and overall volume.2. Fat Grafting: Liposuction with fat transfer to the upper breast can provide a natural boost in volume, although results are less predictable and more subtle (typically improving volume by about half to one cup size).3. Mastopexy Revision with Internal Support: A revision breast lift can be performed, often with the addition of an internal mesh or scaffold ("internal bra") to help maintain shape and support long term.
Discuss these options with your board-certified plastic surgeon to determine what approach aligns best with your anatomy, goals, and lifestyle.

Lower pole superior transfer auto augmentation is the only operation with consistent upper pole fullness.

Unfortunately not many surgeons are aware of the procedure.

Now for you implants are the best choice.

Good luck

Based on your nicely posted before and after photos, your postop result is acceptable, but you do have as you state upper pole, fullness, la city or deficiency. The surgical option are two choices. Number one is redo full breast lift since you have residual nipple complex, dark tissue scars underneath The vertical scar and re-tighten the lift. Fee $4000. Two liposuction with fat transferred to upper polls fee $5000. Three is a combination of both one and two fee $8000. The non-surgical option is the use of ALLOCLAEA injection that is Human fat to fill up the upper pose. It appears you would need approximately 625 cc syringes fee for that is $22,000, the cost of the product is quite high. Best of virtual concert with better understanding regards
