If I Get a Second Breast Lift Will The Incisions Be The Same?

Congratulations on your weight loss! Your plan is appropriate once your weight has stabilized and you are on a healthy healing diet. Your surgeon will remove the old scars and give you new ones in a higher, tighter, package, implants or not. Your surgeon will probably use all of the old scars, but not for sure--this will depend on your new anatomy and your old scars.

If you want implants, suggest that your surgeon first close all of the breast lift incisions (except for the 4cm length needed for breast implant placement), and THEN create your pocket and place your desired implants. This decreases the variability of results that so many surgeons mention, and some even require a second surgery (third for you) to avoid.

Yes, in most cases, if you need a secondary breast lift, the incisions are made right through the previous incisions.  However, without pictures or seeing you in person, it is impossible to give you more specific advice.

 

Good Luck.
