I want fuller, higher, shapely, breast with smaller nipples! What is your best advise without being able to see me in person. Should I go over or under the muscle? I'd like to be around a D cup. Size suggestions? Should I have a lift done? Which kind? I do want smaller nipples. Please help! I am 28yr old. 5"2. 134 lbs. 2 children.
Answer: Best outcome for saggy/deflated breasts after pregnancy It appears that you will benefit from a lift and augmentation. In your case I would use textured silicone breast implants placed under the muscle. Please know that implant placement is vital in long term esthetic results. Do not allow anyone to place implants over the muscle as there are no structures to impede implants from making their way down your chest. The result will be low lying implants that will eventually stretch things further and making correction more complicated. Placement of implants completely under the muscle will help keep the implant in place. I would also recommend you choose the smallest implant possible to reduce long term complications associated with implants (chronic pain, displacement, contracture, etc).Hope this helps,Gary Horndeski M.D.

Answer: Breast implants and lift for enhanced shape and volume Happy New Year. Thanks for your question.Based on your pictures, I think you would most likely benefit from silicone moderate profile implants placed under the pectoralis muscles, combined with a vertical breast lift. Under the muscle implants would show less rippling, as would silicone implants. This is important for you because you are thin and have hollowing of the upper pole of your breast. Under the muscle implants will also give you a higher, more perky result than over the muscle implants.Based on your pictures, I think you definitely need a lift. Without this the breasts would appear to hang off of the implants and your areolae would not be addressed. (You noted that you want them smaller.) The exact implant size and specific type of lift you would require would be determined based on a thorough consultation and exam, although we have a general idea from your pictures and could get very close to making the specific determinations with a virtual consult. Most likely an implant in the high 300 to low 400 cc size-range would be appropriate.Good luck. You appear to be excellent candidate for these procedures.

Answer: Vertical mastopexy needed You would do well with a vertical augmentation mastopexy (lollipop lift). In my opinion, you have enough ptosis to warrant a mastopexy done with the augmentation otherwise you will be back for a staged mastopexy (not that there is anything wrong with that if you are absolutely opposed to mastopexy scars). Thanks for sharing.

Answer: Getting the Results You Want It isn't possible to give you the best advice without a complete exam. From your photographs, it certainly seems that you need a mastopexy to correct your nipple position. You also, of course, need an implant to achieve the volume you want. Because you have little breast tissue for coverage, you will probably want to consider a silicone implant. There are many decisions that have to be made between you and a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Breast surgery recommendations Thank you for your pictures. Your most solid recommendation should come from you directions to go examination. Based on your pictures you're going to need a breast lift and more than likely the implants need to be placed under the muscle.
