I am going to have a breast reduction and want them to look full or perky. I am wondering if during a breast reduction, anything can be done to maintain or increase fullness post surgery.I have had two children and nursed both so now have very large breasts. I am afraid that after a breast reduction I will have smaller breast but that they will look less full. Also I am overweight and am concerned about the look of my breasts after the reduction, if I lose more weight.

Answer: Breast Reduction and Implants?
Thank you for the question and picture.
As you have discussed, it will be in your best interest to achieve a long-term stable weight prior to undergoing breast reduction surgery. This operation will serve to remove excess skin, adipose tissue, and breast tissue. The breasts will be sitting higher on the chest wall.
Several months after the breast reduction surgery you will be able to evaluate the results of surgery and determine if breast implants are of interest to you (to increase upper hole breast volume/fullness).
Best wishes.

Answer: Weight loss after breast reduction may precipitate need for a breast implant to achieve perky look It is impossible to predict the appearance of your breasts with weight loss. When planning any cosmetic surgery procedurel, it is best to be at a STABLE WEIGHT. IF you proceed with teh reduction now, you may need an implant or lift at a later date., The first patient in the video below shows one example of a young individual who underwent a breast reduction and subsequently lost weight necessitating a breast implant to achieve upper breast fullness.
