Can I get a breast lift without implants Or reduction? Thank you in advance

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

A breast lift may be a reasonable option 
just based upon your pictures, but an exam will be necessary to make a
 determination.  Find an expert in breast surgery in your 
area who has great reviews and great before and after photos.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Hello! Thank you for your question!  The mastopexy procedure raises the breast, which ultimately provides a more youthful and perky breasts. This is done by removing the extra loose skin and rearranging the surrounding breast tissue in order to reshape and support the newly formed breast. At the same time, the nipple-areolar complex (NAC) is raised to the ideal position above the fold beneath your breast (the inframammary fold) as well as being placed at the most projecting portion. Oftentimes with age or following pregnancy, the NAC becomes widened and enlarged. This may be reduced in size during the breast lift procedure. It is common for the breast to lose its firmness and uplifted appearance over time, which is also accentuated with age, pregnancy/breast feeding, weight gain/loss, and gravity. This results in breast ptosis, or sagging of the breast, with a “deflated” appearance. Women seek the mastopexy procedure to regain the previous youthful appearance of her breasts and women report increased confidence, self-esteem, and femininity once achieving this desired shape and fullness. Breast lifts may or may not be performed with implants – the implant would add increased size but also greater fullness in the upper pole of the breasts which creates more cleavage.  Hope that this helps!

Thank you for your pictures. There's no way you can get a breast lift without a reduction. Implants are not indicated your particular situation. Good luck.

Based on your photos-- you are a good candidate for breast reduction /lift. That will give you your best breasts in my opinion. Seek an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
