I wear a 34 c bra but one side is about a half cup size smaller than the other. First, will breast lifts decrease my cup size? Second, can I reduce one breast a little to make them more even without it looking funny? Third, my nipples are large. Can I get them reduced and prettier as well? One is elongated bc of the droop.
Answer: Breast lift A breast lift alone should give you more symmetry, lift the nipple and areola, and reduce the size of the areola. Even if no breast tissue is removed, you can expect to be 1/2-1 cup size smaller. If you are comfortable with that size, a breast lift would help you achieve your goals. Good luck.

Answer: Are my breasts too small for a breast lift without implants? In general a breast lift may reduce your breast cup size and depending on your desired appearance an augmentation with an implant is a option to making the size of your breasts equal. A nipple reduction can be performed during a breast lift or augmentation. The best way to determine which options are best for you would be to have an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. Best of luck.

Answer: Lift without implants Yes you can do a lift without implants and no you will not lose appreciable volume with a lift. Having said that you will feel dramatically smaller as they will no longer be ptotic. It is the sagging that makes them feel so big. The areolar size is always reduced with a lift. You can take more from one side than the other to make them closer in size - is is difficult to get them exact. I understand your concern about size but you may ultimately get a better result with a small subglandular implant.Good luck

Answer: Are my breasts too small for a breast lift without implants? Thank you for your question and photos. Almost anything can be possible with surgery. What is important is that you and your surgeon are on the same page with your goals and have realistic expectations. Generally speaking a lift can be done that includes reduction of the diameter of the areola and reduction of some tissue to achieve a greater symmetry. At the same time this will also give the impression of a smaller breast. Therefore, if you desire a smaller breast with these changes then you should do fine. If you want to avoid a smaller breast then you may wish to consider implants at the time of your lift. I would recommend starting with a face to face consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who has experience in these areas. During your visit your surgeon should be evaluating your health to determine if you are a good surgical candidate and examining your tissues to get a sense of what type of procedure your tissues will allow. Only with a hands on exam can this be determined. Once an exam and opinion is rendered then you can decide if surgery is right for you. Good luck.

Answer: Breast lift Thank you for your question and photos. A breast lift will move the nipple position but it is difficult to tell if your cup size will be affected. If you needed to reduce only one breast and get a nipple reduction that could be done, too.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
