I got my Natrelle gel implants in 2016 when I was 18 years old. I’ve had 2 babies in the last 3 years and this is what my breasts look like now. I’m curious if I need a breast lift with new implants or if just one of those options would suffice to fix the appearance. I’m 26 years old now and embarrassed for my husband to see me topless.
Answer: Implants I would recommend downsizing implants to a lower profile, placing Galaflex (internal bra), and performing a lift. Sometimes the original implants placed for an augmentation are often far too projecting. This requires downsizing to a less projecting (lower profile) implant in order to permit soft tissue to be "lifted" over the new implant mound. I would recommend seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon with plastic surgery residency and aesthetic fellowship experience.

Answer: Breasts Yes, you need to change your implants and get a lift. Don't go much larger or you may just sag again.

Answer: Breast lift yes Based on your photos and explanation, you would need breast lift. The implants can be reused, but since they are old enough, if you are planning to have a lifting surgery I would recommend check with your current breasts and replace with new ones. Breast lift will help the tighten the skin around your breasts and overall improve your musle tone and you can also decide the implants size by replacing to new implants.It would be best to set up a consultation with one or more board certified platisc surgeons for more information.Best Wishes

Answer: Breast lift I think that you could achieve a more youthful look if you have a breast lift to elevate your nipple and to remove some of the sagging skin. You have the option to change your implants if you want them to be larger or smaller, or even if you just want to update them since they are 7-8 years old. Talk to your surgeon and then you will have a better idea of what to expect with your body. Best of luck!

Answer: Revision or explant with Bellesoma Method Your breasts are at 2 different levels, your implants are high and your breast tissue is low. They need to be repositioned and realigned. This can be done through a circumareola approach to reposition the nipple-areola complex higher and lower the implants. The other alternative would be explantation with lift using The Bellesoma Method. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.
