Breast augmentation in 2019. Saline implants. 500 CC’s in both. I’ve had 2 kids since then. Trying to see if I need a lift. I’m 5’6 and 200 pounds. I’m just curious if I’ll need implants after the lift or not. I’m okay with getting implants again but I wasn’t sure if you can do the lift without implants with the way my boobs look now.
Answer: Breast lift I would not use implants along with the lift. If anything you may need a slight reduction. Some surgeons use implants to achieve upper pole fullness but I would not do that in your situation

Answer: Do I need a lift and implants? The best recommendation would really depend on your goals for surgery. A lift will restore your breasts so they are perkier and more youthful. If you remove the 500cc implants the breasts will be significantly smaller. If you are happy with the current size but just want them rejuvenated then a lift with implant exchange would be the right move.

Answer: Breast lift with or without implants Hi Savvy. Great question. It really depends on how much native breast tissue you have and what your size goals are. What I would suggest to a patient in your situation is to consider implant deflation prior to surgery. This is a procedure we can do in the office ( a few weeks to a few months prior to surgery) with little to no pain or downtime and it would give you an idea of how much tissue we would have to work with during the lift. Then we can determine your need for a mastopexy with implant exchange or just a implant removal. I highly recommond that you seek out a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in surgery of the breast to help you reach your aesthetic goals. Best of luck!

Answer: Implants not necessary If you’d like to have perkier breasts, implants wouldn’t be necessary. A breast lift alone would be sufficient.
