I'm a side sleeper and I can't seem to break the habit. I sleep with bunched up socks between my cleavage but it doesn't seem to help I'm wondering if I should get a lift. I need it anyway and was planning on getting one in a few years but now I'm thinking I should just do it now before my wrinkles get worse. I have 520cc implants that are only two years old they are way too low so I'm thinking I should just get the lift .

Answer: Chest wrinkles Dear 30mommyx3,based on your photos, breast lift won't help you with wrinkles on upper chest area. Regarding the breast lift, determining whether you need simply a breast augmentation versus a breast lift can be somewhat complicated. It depends on a number of factors including skin laxity and current nipple position. Generally speaking, if the nipples are lower than the inframammary line the patient will most likely need a breast lift. If the nipples are at or above the inframammary line we can generally get by with just a breast augmentation depending on the size of the implant the patient wants. I often still using implant when I perform a breast lift because it provides more upper breast fullness after the lift. To be sure a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon will help determine what the patient actually needs.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Answer: Breast lift will not help wrinkles in decollete While it is true that you may need a lift, it will not help the type of wrinkles that you have in your upper chest (decollete.) Ultherapy is FDA-approved for treating that area and will be more likely to give you results. When you do the lift, consider an internal bra with Galaflex mesh because your implants are on the large side and that fact that they are dropping means extra support may be needed.
