Hello I already have had 2 brast lift surgerys and a revision. Still my breast is sagging. Would be another lift be dangerous? Would a lift just on the inframammary fold help to keep the risks low? I dont want to cut around the nipplea again because i had a hard healing. Thank you
Answer: Breast Lift As long as you are relatively healthy and you choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, you can safely have a 3rd lift. I am a quadruple Board certified surgeon and have many years of experience fixing other surgeons breast lifts. If you would like to be seen by office to see what can be done to help you, feel free to reach out for a consultation. Smith Plastic Surgery 702-838-2455

Answer: Consultation Thank you for your question. This is something we see frequently in our practice. Scar tissue will never be as strong as native/uncut tissue. For this reason when we perform secondary, tertiary, etc breast surgery we encourage patients to use the internal mesh, that is dissolvable over time, but initially helps to strengthen the support of the tissue to hold the implant up. Sometimes if the position of the previously lifted nipple is in the correction position but the bottom is "bottomed out" then we can do a modified lift and placement of mesh just in the inframammary fold crease to correct this issue.

Answer: More information Unfortunately, you have not provided photographs or told us your bra size. However, the more previous breast surgeries you have had the more risky another procedure would be. If your problem is mostly inframammary then that can be treated by revising the inframammary fold scar. I would need more information to give you a more accurate answer.

Answer: Lift You did not show photos, but if your nipples are in good position, they would not need to be moved. If breast tissue is mainly sagging inferiorly, some could be removed and the excess skin could be excised from the inferior incision.
