Can a breast lift be performed on a 16 year old?

Thank you for your question! I hope that these answers help in making
your decision. It is not uncommon to have the symptoms that you
describe, especially in teenagers once her breasts begin to fully
develop. It may be that you have juvenile hypertrophy, in which case,
your symptoms may worsen and breast continue to grow and droop over
time. However, if you are not having any symptoms and desire the
procedure to improve the shape, it would be wise to consider this after
your breasts have fully developed. At which time, the shaping could be
performed more accurately. Once one begins to have the symptoms that you state
above, consideration for a surgical procedure to ameliorate your
symptoms, assist with self esteem, and allow you to get back to physical
activities in your youth should be done. Given your symptoms, you
would be an ideal candidate. You must first discuss with your parents
and pediatrician, and then consulting with a plastic surgeon for
evaluation and examination to assist you in deciding if this would be
the right thing for you. Your surgeon will also go over what to expect
as well as the risks and benefits of the procedure. Overall, your
symptoms should be ameliorated almost immediately and hopefully give you
more self confidence and an increased activity level. Your breasts may
still continue to grow over the next several years, but it is certainly
reasonable to consider this at this age with the issues that you are
having. Many surgeons will recommend awaiting until full breast
development prior to consideration, but discuss your concerns. I hope
that this helps! Good luck with your decision!

 Yes, it is possible to perform breast lifting on a 16-year-old. However, whether it is the best timing to do so and whether the particular teenager will accept the downsides ( such as scarring)  will depend on the specific patient.  Hopefully you have your parents' support as you consider your options. Educate yourself about the potential risks/complications associated with the surgery including the potential need for additional surgery for a multitude of reasons. Best wishes. 

Yes,
at breast lift can be performed on a 16 year old provided you have parental
consent. I recommend a new technique
called The Ultimate Breast LiftTM.
This technique reshapes your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness,
elevates them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your
cleavage. The weight of the breast is
transferred to the underlying muscle resulting in long term stability. This technique avoids the ugly vertical scars
of the traditional technique, maintains nipple sensation and the ability to
breast feed. I never recommend the Wise
pattern, which use an anchor shaped incision, results in nipple numbness and
the inability to breast feed.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.
