Is it possible to go from a small b cup to a dd cup without a lift? (Photo)

Hello, thank you for your question. There are are different lifts and most people worry about the scar however sometimes the real concern should be your outcome. Are you willing to sacrifice sag for scars. Speak to your plastic surgeon about your options. Be sure to bring in wish pics check out our gallery below.

Thanks for your inquiry and picture. My personal recommendation would be you need a lift, but maybe repost with a wish beast and have us comment if it possible with a lift, best of luck.

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, if interested. 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. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Dear Courageous192714,
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.

You need a lift, or your nipples will still not be even and will still sag. The DD is fairly large and may be heavy on your neck and shoulders. Plus, with heavy implants, your tissue is stretched and thinned and may sag over time.

From your photo it appears you would have the best result from a lift with implants. The lift would address the nipple position and along with the implant, shape would be overall improved. Your goal of getting from a B cup to a DD is realistic. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Hi and welcome to our forum!
From your photos, I note that you demonstrate breast size asymmetry. The distance from the top of the breast bone to the nipples is increased. The nipple areolar complexes reside at different "altitudes" on the chest wall. The breasts are tubular in shape. There appear to be minimal-moderate periareolar stretch marks present. There is loss of superior pole fullness. Both breasts demonstrate moderate sag.
Breast augmentation alone will provide larger breasts of the same shape.
Adding a lift will elevate the nipple areolar complexes into anatomic position (and improve symmetry), remove excess stretched out skin, restore superior breast pole fullness, and conify breast shape.
I do not recommend selecting an extremely large breast implant solely to avoid a lift. It will not prove sufficient and in addition you may suffer from possible neck, shoulder, back pain, and bra strap grooving / irritation as the result of the added weight of extremely large breasts.
Visit a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion.
