I've nursed three children and had a 70 lb. weight loss that have left me with lots of excess skin & sagging. Once I reach my goal weight, I'm interested in a mommy makeover that includes a tummy tuck and breast lift, but not augmenting my breasts. Do you think that's possible with how my breasts look? I'm happy with the size of my breasts when I wear a good bra (currently 38DD) but unhappy with how deflated & saggy they are without a bra.

Answer: Can my Breasts Be Lifted Without Implants? It's a great question and the answer is definitely a yes. Whether to add implants depends on your goals for overall breast size and fullness at the top of your breasts. A breast lift gives a very natural look with a teardrop-shaped breast. For women who specifically desire fullness at the top, then a small implant can be added. Make sure you find an experienced board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your goals, so that you can decide which procedure is right for you.

Answer: Can my Breasts Be Lifted Without Implants? I have a couple of points need to clarify before giving my last reply for your question.If you like your breast size and the way your breasts look in a bra, but wish that your nipples were higher and you had some more fullness in the upper part of the breasts, then a breast lift without implants may be the right surgery for you. It is important to understand, however, that the result of a breast lift depends a lot on the degree of breast sagging and on the amount of excess skin.A breast lift will not increase the cup size of the breasts. Instead, a lift will tighten the skin envelope in order to distribute the overall volume of the breast in an upward direction. Thus we reach a fullness in the upper part of the breast in combination with more pleasing rounded shape to the lower breast.In other words breast lift, or mastopexy, restores a more youthful appearance to a woman’s breasts by elevating the nipple and breast as well as tightening loose breast skin, but this surgery will not increase the size of your breast. However the majority of women considering breast lift are interested also in enlarging their breast. Throughout my years in practice, I have found that those women who have enlarged their breasts in addition to a lift are usually more happy with the results of surgery. Thus, mastopexy with implants is a usual two-in-one operation, which can not only reduce drooping and excess skin present in the breasts, it can also produce a fuller shape, better firmness, and often improve overall results.In your case you should be aware that lifting without implant could not be enough to generate a DD result.I hope this helps.

Answer: Breast Lift Without Implants Yes, it is possible to have a breast lift surgery without getting implants. Implants provided the newly lifted breasts with added volume, making the breasts look full and plump. It is ultimately your choice if you want to have the implants placed or not, though you should understand that your breasts might look relatively flattened without them. You may also decide that you want the implants placed at a later time somewhere down the line, which would require an additional surgery.
