I'm considering BA and/or breast lift. I'm 5'8, 133 lbs, mid-30's, exercise reg, & recently started weights. I feel like my breasts droop b/c my weight has gone up/down throughout my life, esp. as a teen. My areolas seem too big for breast size. I'm 34-36A, would like B or even C. I'm worried a lift won't be enough & I need implants too (under muscle?) resulting in more pain/longer recovery & difficultly having mammograms later. Would 250 cc's BA (no lift?) be enough for a B cup & minimal risks?

Answer: To Augment or Not to Augment? Good afternoon!Although you did not provide a topless photo, you describe your areolas being large and out of proportion to your breasts, and in the tank top your breasts do look a little "deflated" look, so I would recommend a lift with submuscular silicone gel implants, to give you a nice soft natural but perky look. A lift by itself is just not going to do the trick.In my office I would take your chest measurements, review photos with you, and then have you try on the implant sizers to make sure you select the correct size and profile to achieve your goals, but 250cc may well be enough to accomplish your goals.And you re definitely correct- the smaller the implants, the faster and easier the recovery!I have attached a link to my Breast Lift / Breast Augmentation photo gallery for your review- hope it helps!

Answer: Recovery and results with smaller implants Hello, in my experience people who choose large implants in proportion to their body size do tend to have more initial pain and discomfort, and oversized implants are more likely to be associated with rippling and other problems. Of course, complications can happen with any operation or implant size, but disproportionately large implants have additional risks.
