Am I a candidate for a breast lift? Thin skin. (Photos)

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, it seems like you may be a good candidate for a breast lift. I recommend scheduling a consult for a proper evaluation. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Dr. Moises Salama, board certified plastic surgeon

Thank you for your photos. There should be no reason why you cannot have a revision of your breast lift done, which would remove only some additional skin from your breast, but retain all of its volume. This should help your breast look slightly fuller because the same amount of volume is now contained in a smaller envelope of skin. From your photos, it does not appear that your nipple/areola need to be moved any higher, but that the lower portion of your breast could be tightened some. There should be no problem with the thickness of your skin and you’re healing, especially since you healed well after your first lift. Best wishes.

From the looks of your photos, yes, you are a candidate for a breast lift. The thin skin is not an issue.

Based on your photos, yes, you could have a breast lift. However since you had one recently, you should allow everything to fully heal for a full year before considering another lift. Also understand that you have very little volume right now and that will affect the shaping of your breasts.

I recommend The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them 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.

Best Wishes,

Based on your post photos, I recommend a full revision of breast lift due to primary lift was done poorly. Expect fees to arrange from $8000-$12,000. Best of virtual consultant with.

A breast lift primarily raises the nipple position in relationship to the IMF(infra mammary fold). It can also tighten up a stretched out skin envelope.
It’s difficult to replace the projection and implant creates.
A breast lift typically does not give good projection in the upper half of the breast.
The first and second pictures look quite different.
Did you have more than one breast lift?
I recommend you rely on in person consultations with plastic surgeons in your community.
Continue working with your plastic surgeon or get second opinion consultations for other plastic surgeons in your community.
For second opinion consultations come prepared bringing with you copies of your medical record especially your previous before and after pictures and copies of your operative report.
You should be able to get these by requesting them from your current provider.
Best,
