I had a previous breast augmentation with Saline implants almost 18 years ago. I have had 2 more kids since the breast implants and recently felt like they are drooping and how do I know I need a lift. Is it possible to get pocket work done without a full lift. What options do I have for the best outcome. ?
Answer: Breast lift for waterfall ptosis You have what is called "waterfall ptosis," which is sagging of the breast tissue with the implants staying in position. (The opposite is bottoming out, when the implants drop but nipple position stays.) This can only be corrected with a breast lift.

Answer: Will I need a lift as well as a breast revision to replace implant? What is the best option for me? Your photos suggest that a breast lift would be required to enhance your breast contours. Seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss options for the type of lift that would best suit your goals.

Answer: Breast lift Hi. I think your breasts would look more youthful and perky if you have a breast lift. Unfortunately, there are scars required for this procedure, but if you don't do it, then you can fix your sagging appearance. The option that gives a scar around the areola, donut mastopexy, would not work for you since it would not lift you enough and it would make the front of your breast look flattened. The full mastopexy would do a better job of fixing the sagging. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast revision Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for a procedure I developed termed "Reductive Augmentation" in which we perform implant exchange with a higher-profile silicone implant, lateral and inferior capsulorrhaphy-internal bra, and revision mastopexy. I published in 2017 you can view it on my website under publications. You are absolutely not a candidate for a donut mastopexy. Best wishes to you.

Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method The technique I recommend is explantation with lift using The Bellesoma Method. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated 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. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.
