Hi there! I’m a 23 y/o woman who is really unhappy with my breasts appearance. I have considered having a breast reduction,, and have received approval from my insurance company. I am afraid that I will be unhappy with my size following a reduction. I’ve been told that about 600 grams would need to be removed from each for the procedure to be covered by insurance. Now I’m considering a breast lift, would I be able to achieve a lifted/ youthful look with a lift? Thanks so much for any assistance!

Answer: Breast lift Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a candidate for a breast lift or reduction. While insurance based reductions will need to meet certain criteria for the amount of tissue removed, you may have options outside this which will avoid a large volume reduction if you choose.

Answer: Breast lift or reduction to achieve a lifted, youthful look? Hello Dear @teddybear111 thank you for your question and showing your pictures. You can carry out a surgical plan in which you have everything you need. These mammary changes are associated with weight variation, alterations in the elasticity and skin tone that influences changes in breast volume. From experience, I consider that is ideal to make a reduction in breast volume and an elevation to improve the shape and position of the breast. The scar can be varied, mostly the inverted T- shaped is used however in my experience of 21 years I have made a modification to improve the extension of the scar being the L shape. The one used in cases of breast reduction and or breast lift. For more information and recommendations is best to consult with one or several board certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes!
