I wanted to get BA to restore a bit of fullness to my breasts particularly in the upper part bit also more volume in the bottom, i just want them to feel and look more filled out, firmer and rounder, but a surgeon has reviewed my photo and suggested I need an uplift which I am disapointed about as I didnt want the scarring and I thought I had a pretty good shape and nipple position still for 45, opinions appreciated please Doc's!

Answer: Do I Need a Lift? Hello,Thank you for your question and photo. You will probably receive different feedback from different surgeons. An in-person exam is the best way to determine your needs. If your level of deflation/sagging is borderline and nipples have not descended to or below the IMF crease, implants placed above the muscle, without a lift, can be a good option. Your choice of procedure will depend on your aesthetic goals. A larger, projecting implant placed in the sub mammary position can "fluff" out deflated tissue and perk up the nipples somewhat. The breasts will have a slightly low, natural contour still. If you want/expect very perky breasts and elevated nipples you will need to consider a breast lift.I recommend that you book in-person consultations with Board certified Plastic Surgeons whose work appeals to you.All the best

Answer: Breast augmentation without a lift could achieve your goals From the picture you posted, it appears that you could achieve your desired goals with breast implants alone. Implants often give the illusion of lift as well. After 9 months when the implants have fully settled, if you feel your breasts aren't perky enough, you could always get a lift at that time. Hope this info helps and good luck. For more information on this and similar topics, I recommend a plastic surgery Q&A book like "The Scoop On Breasts: A Plastic Surgeon Busts the Myths."
