Asked By:Julymomma in Fairhaven, Massachusetts

I had a breast reduction/lift using a vertical incision in August 2023. I’m left with folds underneath both breasts leaving me disfigured and now battling recurrent skin infections. Pre-op size: 32DDD Current Size: 32DD Left breast: 184g removed Right breast: 91g removed My recent consult advised me to either do an augmentation with a mesh bra or with small intramuscular implants in order to get the upper pole fullness I’m looking for. I don’t want to be any bigger, re-reduction?
