Breast "Tack" for Breast Lifting?

Without looking at your pictures it's hard to tell which procedure would be best for you. What I often do in my practice when a pt. has implants that are behind the muscle I:


Go back in through a circumareolar incision and make the capsule smaller to bring the implant up

then, perform a 'donut mastopexy' to lift the nipple where it needs to be (if needed)


Implants that are above the muscle:


Remove the existing implants, then place them behind the muscle

Depending on the amt. of lift needed; perform a donut mastopexy

or the Ultimate Lift (NO VERTICAL SCAR) scars are around the areola and hidden under  the breast mound

Thank you for the question.

Unfortunately, without a good quality pictures or in person examination is not possible to give you good advice.

I am concerned, based on your description, that you may fall in the wrong hands and undergo a procedure that has not been time tested;  with your desire to limit incisions you may end up dissatisfied with the end results of surgery.

I would suggest in person consultation with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons.

Best wishes.

If you are not sagging considerably and you want to limit the scar to an area around the areo;a, then a Goes Lift is ideal for you. This is a technique whereby the breast tissue is lifted from high on the chest wal. the breast tissue is reshaped internally and then supported with an internal mesh brassiere. The results are durable and the scarring is minimal. If you desire a little added volume, my Tear Drop lift is the next best thing.

Another version of this lift is the Benelli mastopexy, but I find the results to be less satisfactory than the Goes or Tear Drop.
