I'm 24, 130 lbs, 5'7. I've been an A cup my whole life but sag, asymmetry, and areola stretching happened with motherhood. I don't want big boobs and I don't want implants as the potential complications and maintenance (replacements) are too much for me. What I want is lift and symmetry. I honestly don't care if I'm relatively flat after (think Kate Hudson) - what are my options? Am I a candidate for a lift, fat grafting or laser bra?
Answer: Mini Ultimate Breast Lift
You are an excellent candidate for the Mini Ultimate Breast Lift, which lifts breasts without implants. This technique uses a circumareola incision and lifts your breasts higher on the chest wall, increases your cleavage and anterior projection. The volume of the breasts will not change but they will appear larger because they are higher and project more.
Best Wishes,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast Lift
You have a very interesting case. You want a lot and know how you want to get there. Even with a perfect lift you will not add volume however you may like the way they look more. I would offer an autoaugment lift than see how you do

Answer: Breast lift
although you can get a lift without implants, I think the result will not be great because you will be practically flat chested with scars. But you can have the lift done and if you are not pleased, you can have implants placed at a later time.

Answer: Lifting without implants can be a good option
Thank you for your information and photo. Your goals appear to be in line with what a breast lift without implants can accomplish. A mastopexy (breast lift) can improve your shape, decrease the droop and mobility of your breasts. No breast size or volume would be lost.
These improvements need to be weighed against the risks, scars and recovery associated with the procedure. A vertical mastopexy with a lollipop final surgical scar looks to be the best option.
Best Regards,
Dr. Mosher

Answer: Breast lift without implants
Thank you for the photos. You are an excellent candidate for a short scar breast lift. This will raise the nipple areolar complex to a higher level, also making them smaller. You can also have fat grafting into the breasts done at the same time. I would suggest placement of the fat in the superior breasts and cleavage area. See a board certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in these procedures. Good luck.
