Question

40 year old 2 children history of weight gain and loss. Not looking to have large implants but to replace upper pole loss since children . Want a natural look but also don’t want worse sagging so unsure on lift / lift type.

Unfortunately, breasts change  after pregnancy.

Best results to restore perkier and fuller breasts would be with full T lift and implants (which do. It need to be very large).

An exam and consultation with a plastic surgeon is recommended to discuss your options and expectations.

John LoMonaco, MD, FACS · Answer

Thanks for the photos.  You would be a god candidate for a breast lift. This would raise the nipple, shorten the breast skin fold at the bottom, and provide you a bit more projection. Because you are thin and don't have a large amount of your own breast tissue, your breast will not be very full or rounded at the top.

To accomplish upper pole fullness, you'd need an implant.  This comes with it's own advantages and drawbacks, and you'll want to discuss those issues carefully with your plastic surgeon. Breast lift + implant is IMO one of the more challenging plastic surgeries to accomplish successfully.

Please choose your surgeon based on experience, and because revisions are sometimes needed, be sure you see and understand their policy on this issue. Cheers from Texas !
