Is a periareolar/donut lift (recommendation from surgeon) enough? (Photos)

January 16, 2022
Asked By:Original1769 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

I'm questioning a periareolar/donut lift recommendation from surgeon - Hello; Recently lost 90lbs and got a quote from a BC surgeon whose work I admired. However, I am questioning one of his recommendations, for my breasts he recommends a donut lift with 350-400cc implants. I am worried that a periareolar lift will not be enough and could cause further drooping and/or stretched out irregular areolas? I am hoping for some additional input from other surgeons. Ideally I wanted a lift + fat graft to avoid implants. Thanks!
