Age 36, do I have stage 1 ptosis & is BL & augmentation required? (Photos)

You could just have an augmentation, especially if implants were placed in front of the muscle. Your breasts will not be lifted, but would be fuller.

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. 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.

The answer to this question really depends on what you're looking for in the overall appearance of your breast AFTER the surgery. If you are looking to keep it small/conservative but perky - nothing more than a moderate profile implant than more than likely you could benefit from a type of lift. However, you would also be a good candidate for the dual-plane breast augmentation using a full profile (higher volume for your breast width) implant with possible placement of internal bra to support the size while filling out your breast envelope without requiring the mastopexy (lift) scars.
