What are some non surgical options for a breast lift? (Photos)

Question

I had a baby and gained a lot of weight. I had implants in 2017 and one still looks great and the other just looks... not. I don't know what made them go so differently but I'm hoping there's something I can do for the one.

My Lady, Thank you for sharing the photos. Looking at the photo I see some breast asymmetry and the nipples pointing in different directions.  This is likely to difference in the position of the implants.  Your best option is likely removal of your implants and replacement of new implants. Another option would be fat transfer to the breast to try to correct the asymmetry. I dont think you need a breast lift. Wishing you the best of health, Dr Wright.

Hello dear ladylerm, This is Dr. Hong from Fresh Clinic in Seoul. I’m truly sorry to hear about the issues you’re experiencing with your breast. Unfortunately, there are no nonsurgical options available to effectively contour the breast in this situation.
I strongly recommend visiting a mammologist for a thorough evaluation of your breast condition. It’s important to check the placement of your implants as well, to rule out issues such as rotation, contracture, or rupture. Once you have the results of this exam, it will be much clearer what steps to take next, whether that involves removal, replacement, or another approach.I sincerely hope you find a skilled clinic to address this issue, and I encourage you to consider more body-friendly options in the future, such as breast fat transfer, which uses your own body fat for natural-looking results.
Wishing you all the best,Dr. HongFresh Clinic (Seoul)

Thank for your for your question and the photos you provided. I would recommend going back to your original surgeon and getting an in-person exam. Your plastic surgeon can tell if there are any implant issues causing asymmetry. Your body goes through a lot of changes during pregnancy and after, as you know, so sometimes fat, breast tissue, skin can all contribute to the changes that occurred in your breasts. Good Luck!

Technology has not yet advanced to the point where there are non-surgical options that would provide the correction you desire. If you are truly interested in treating this condition, seek a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options.

Hello!
Unfortunately there is no nonsurgical option to help contour the breast. You have mismatch between the  2 sides. I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon to help guide you in achieving the goals you desire. You can find one at plasticsurgery.org.
Best of luck to you!

Dear Ladylerm,
 The main asymmetry appears to be nipple position, and the volume looks to be about the same, so the elevation of the left nipple/areola would improve symmetry in that regard.  You don't need much nipple elevation so a periareolar lift is an option.  However, that technique flattens the breast and is best done when an implant is placed or present to support the breast shape.

Daniel Barrett, MD · Answer

Dear ladylerm,
my preferred lift is a lollipop lift when a periareolar won't do (ie greater than 2cm lift required). The lollipop technique was created by a Canadian plastic surgeon named Elizabeth Hall-Findley and treats the breast as a three dimensional structure instead of two dimensions (anchor - lift). Most importantly it does not require the horizontal component scars that the anchor-lift requires and breasts appear much more natural, lifted, and less boxy. Lastly, the lift lasts longer because the lollipop doesn't rely on the skin to hold the breast up, its actually breast tissue thats being brought together to support the breast and hence improves longevity. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
