Saline to silicone exchange with no lift? Will it cause a problem with sagging in the future? (Photo)

Good afternoon,
While a donut mastopexy is not the full answer, it's better than no lift at all in your situation- I would ask your PS if they would be willing to do that for you at the same time during your upcoming surgery. What you really need is the Internal Bra, but your surgeon probably doesn't know how to do that.

Dear Eclectic229691,
determining whether you need simply a breast augmentation versus a breast lift can be somewhat complicated. It depends on a number of factors including skin laxity and current nipple position. Generally speaking, if the nipples are lower than the inframammary line the patient will most likely need a breast lift. If the nipples are at or above the inframammary line we can generally get by with just a breast augmentation depending on the size of the implant the patient wants. I often still using implant when I perform a breast lift because it provides more upper breast fullness after the lift. To be sure a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon will help determine what the patient actually needs.
