I’m 33 and have had two kids and lost 140 pounds with weight loss surgery, I’ve had the weight off for 7 years. I know I need an anchor lift and implants but am worried with my degree of sagging I won’t be able to get the look I'm going for. Am I being unrealistic? First pic is me and the second pic is my inspiration pic.
Answer: Is my desired look possible with a Breast Lift with Implants? Based on the pictures provided, I think breast lift with an implant is a reasonable choice. We would need to do measurements to confirm it's appropriate to do at the same time. Sometimes if the areola/nipple needs to be lifted a significant amount, the procedures need to be separated by several months.

Answer: Breasts You may do well with the vertical lift and can avoid the underneath incision. You also may have enough breast tissue to not need implants if you want about a B cup in size. Otherwise, choose small implants.

Answer: Desired look should be possible I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Breast reconstruction Hello, thank you for your question and your pics. and congratulations on your weight loss. Any plastic surgery result depends in a lot of factors. In your case, as you well point, skin quality plays a major role, but this role I've found it's more in the long run rather than the immediate result. What will play a major role in your case is the lack of gland, and thus, coverage for the implants. Coverage is important to "hide the implants" and in your case an "under the muscle approach" should help you with achieving a beautiful cleavage, however, the end result is impossible to predict, specially with your skin characteristics. With all being said, don't get discourage, you should have a beautiful result, just try not to go too big with your implants (extra weight is your enemy)

Answer: Bellesoma Method The technique I recommend is a 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.
