Are breast lifts something I should look into?

If you are truly bothered by sagging to your breasts then it would appropriate for you to discuss options with a board certified plastic surgeon. Your personal anticipated benefits cannot be described in the absence of photos.

Hello, some people do have loose breast tissue with lower nipples (ptosis) right from when the breasts first develop. If this is a concern you could certainly discuss it with a plastic surgeon. In order to decide whether surgery is a good option you need to be informed about the operation, including the resulting scars, risks, healing time, costs involved, and expected results. You can then decide if the procedure would be worthwhile in your case.

Hello,
This is a great question and I implore you to make an appointment for an in person consultation to address your concerns!
A breast lift is a great procedure to address saggy breasts, breasts that are low sitting, or breasts that have lost their volume.
As always, an in-office consultation is required to really examine your breasts and your own unique anatomy, as well as discuss the procedure and any questions you may have.

Thanks for your question. It is difficult to provide a proper evaluation without pictures. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

If you breasts are saggy then you need a breast lift. The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained.

Best Wishes,

Hi Luminous986659,
without photos, this is a challenging question. However, in general "saggy" breasts are breast that have not enough of volume to fill the skin envelope, and generally a skin envelope that is stretched out. Many women also have widened or spread areola was, and it generally low position of the breasts.most of these issues can be addressed with breast lift, which will simultaneously actively reposition the breast mound, contract the skin envelope to a smaller size, and reposition the nipple while making the areola diameter smaller. I would suggest meeting with a qualified surgeon to discuss.
Hope this helps.

I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, if interested. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Hello, thank you for your question. it can be genetics, it happens thats why we are here to help improve and get you closer to where you would like to be. Discuss your options with your plastic surgeon and be sure to bring in wish pics of someone with a similar frame and size. Feel free to check out website for some before and afters.

Without seeing photographs to assess the issue it is not possible to provide definitive recommendations. In patients with mild ptosis of the nipples, a breast augmentation will give the effect of a slight lift. If a patient has an underlying condition such as a tuberous breast deformity, a more extensive surgery may be required requiring more scars. I would suggest seeing a board certified plastic surgeon for a proper assessment.

Breast lifts are designed for women who are unhappy with the sagging of their breasts. Typically, sagging is measured by the level of the nipples in relation to the breast fold. If they are at or lower than the breast fold, then a breast lift may be a suitable option. It is a surgical procedure therefore there are risks that should be considered, such as infection and changes in nipple sensitivity. If you’d like to determine whether you’re a candidate, please see a board certified plastic surgeon in your area for an assessment.
