Could I get get implants or would I need a lift I’ve been told I could just have an implant but also told my another surgeon I would need a lift
Answer: Lift may be suitable Are your nipples located below your breast fold? It is difficult to determine this from your side photo but from the front, it appears that they may be. For this reason, a lift may be recommended.

Answer: Approach depends on what you wish to achieve. If a breast augmentation alone would give you the shape and contour of your breasts that you wish, then you should just do the breast augmentation only. From your photographs, it appears that your nipple/areolar complex lies slightly low, and additional weight from a breast implant will likely push that slightly lower still. If this is acceptable to you, then the breast augmentation alone would be the operation you should choose. If you feel that your nipple/areolar complex is too low, and you wish it elevated to give you a more youthful and perky appearance, then you would require a lift. The trade-off of that you would have incision lines on the front of your breast.

Answer: Do I need a lift? There are some questions that need to be answered to give you the best recommendation. If you are looking to add fullness but are okay with the current nipple position then an augmentation alone will be sufficient. If you are looking for a perky look and would prefer that your nipples sat higher on the chest wall, then a lift would help you accomplish this.

Answer: Implant vs lift! Thank you for posting your question here!I will start by stating hat my answer is based on the limited information and pictures provided, for a more in depth answer and a bespoke plan I would recommend consulting in person with your plastic surgeon. An implant and a lift address different issues , Implants help add volume while a lift repositions the nipple and removes excess tissue/skin that is causing a droop. They can also be combined to achieve a synergistic effect in individuals with a both issues. That being said it is hard to assess the position of your nipples and droopiness based on the pictures provided alone, but if your nipples are in an ideal spot then all you need is an implant if increased volume is what you are seeking. You can always have a lift later if you are not satisfied with your final outcome. That being said don't get pressured into getting massive implants to compensate for any skin laxity, choose something that works with your frame and goals and if a lift is needed a massive implant is not a substitute for it , it will cause issues down the line. I hope this helps!, best of Luck!

Answer: Bellesoma Method Implants alone will fail. I recommend a breast lift using The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
