What can be done to revise my Breast Lift?

Question

I had breast lift with GalaFLEX (along with lipo 360, and LBL) and noticed my lateral breasts remain boxy. My surgeon said he left them like that intentionally as I planned to add larger implants. I’d like to know what needs to be done to revise the lateral part of my breast? I’m so self conscious and have never seen anyone’s breasts look like this after a lift. I’d like to add implants soon but don’t know what to do with my breasts looking the way they do. Thank you for your help!

Unfortunately, you have not provided photographs or told us your bra size.  Surgeons usually use a vertical scar technique that does not provide adequate lift.  You may need a revision of the breast lift but more information is required.

Dear KJJ7,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. It’s often helpful to see photos of the problem if an in person visit is not possible. Boxy breasts may require skin tightening.

Connie Hiers, MD, FACS · Answer

You did not post photos so I cannot be specific. With the boxy look, you have some excess skin which can be trimmed and tightened. I would suggest discussing your concerns with your surgeon and the options.
