Hi, I'm 23 with no children and am currently in the process of booking a breast uplift with implants with GalaFLEX. I'm not planning on having children until about 5 years time. I understand pregnancy can effect breasts and I'm wondering if it's okay to have another breast lift done again if needed after I'm finished having children? Would the same scars be cut open or would it leave me with more scars? Thank you

Answer: Breast Lift, Breast Augmentation, Breast Implants Dear o123456, Thank you for your question about the feasibility of undergoing a breast lift now and the possibility of needing another lift in the future after having children. Multiple Breast Lifts: Yes, it is entirely possible to have a breast lift now and opt for another one in the future, post-pregnancy. This is a common scenario for many women. Utilizing Existing Scars: Regardless of the type of breast lift you choose now (be it crescent, donut, lollipop, or anchor), the same scars can potentially be used for any future lifts. This minimizes additional scarring. Planning Your Surgeries: You can safely proceed with a breast lift at this time and enjoy the benefits. Then, after completing your family and breastfeeding, you can reassess and decide if another lift is necessary. If a smaller lift is performed initially and more lifting is required post-pregnancy, a more extensive procedure like an anchor lift might be considered. In conclusion, having a breast lift now doesn't preclude you from having another one in the future. It's advisable to discuss your long-term plans and concerns with your plastic surgeon to understand the best approach for your current and future needs. Wishing you the best in your journey and future family plans. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

Answer: Breast Lift You can absolutely have a 2nd breast lift in the future if Necessary using the same incisions as the first procedure. The best solution is to just wear snug, supportive bras to hopefully prevent need for another lift.
