I had a breast lift in 2020 and had trouble with blood flow and healing in one breast. The doctor also left retained areola in my scars. I am fine with going smaller and am unhappy with how they look. I have done two in person consults one doctor said it would not be hard to fix but the other said it would not be worth it the shape is good and the risk is not worth it. They are not implants all my own tissue. I had a tummy tuck as well with no healing issues I don't smoke and am very healthy.

Answer: Revision mastopexy Hello and thank you for your question.Based on the photograph provided, I think you would benefit from a breast lift revision in order to remove the retained areolar pigment on the vertical incision. In addition, the breasts appear somewhat "bottomed out", meaning that a large portion of your breast volume is below the nipple areolar complex. I would recommend revision mastopexy/small breast reduction using a superomedial pedicle with inferior pole resection in a Wise pattern (removing skin and breast tissue from the area below the nipple and areola to create an inverted T incision pattern closure). This would maintain the fullness of the upper portions of you breasts while reducing the dependent volume along the lower part of your breasts. The position of the nipple areolar complexes would not need to be significantly altered, and this would minimize the risk of blood flow issues and wound healing problems. I hope this helps. Good luck.

Answer: Bellesoma Method At this time, I recommend a repeat breast lift using 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 if not injured during your previous surgery. This will lift the nipple-areola complex higher and the breasts can be reduced slightly as well. The scars below the areola would be removed.
