I am getting my Breasts Lifted with Implants...I am currently a 34 B and I want to be a 34 D...Is this possible with an Areola Lift? or will I need a different type of lift (see pics)...if I need a different lift which one is the preferred? and, under or over muscles? THANKS!

Answer: Type of lift
Your photos are very helpful but a definitive answer would require a formal consultation and an understanding of the size implant being used.With lax breast skin the implants should be placed partially under the muscle. I am concerned that your degree of skin laxity will require a more powerful lift than the periareolar to give you an optimal result. The next step up is a circumvertical lift which has the same incision around the areola but a vertical incision from the areola to the breast fold.This will yield a better final breast shape. I do not believe an incision under the breast would be necessary but I would discuss it with you so that there would be no surprises after surgery.
Review these options with your board certified plastic surgeon. I hope this was helpful

Answer: Breast Lift and Breast Implants
The breast implants should be placed under the muscle to create better camouflage among other advantages. A full breast lift will provide a much higher, tighter, better projected breast with more superior pole fullness.
