Hello! I’m just wondering if it would be possible to achieve nice round breasts without getting a lift? I’ve heard it’s common for tuberous breasts to need a lift but I feel like I don’t have much to lift. Would making my crease lower instead of a lift take away the tuberous look? Do I NEED a lift?
Answer: Mild Tuberous Breasts; No Lift Needed I appreciate your concerns, but you do have options.

Answer: In your case, the mastopexy would be an important part of the procedure. In your case, the "lift" part of the procedure would be to correct the herniation of breast tissue coming through your areola. It is more to augment your natural tissue to get your nipples to appear more condensed and loosen the constricted tight breast parenchyma. It would be a necessary part of the procedure to get you the desire result, given the extend of your tuberous breasts.

Answer: Depends on nipple location It’s difficult to give you an opinion based on your photo. You do appear to have tuberous breasts, and the constricted tissue will need to be released before implant insertion. However, whether you need a lift depends on the location of your nipples in relation to your breast fold. If they are below and are pointing downward, then a lift is recommended.

Answer: Breast augmentation From the photo you provided you may able to have a mini lift, which involves an incision only around the areola. The size of the areola can be reduced if desired as part of this procedure. The implants will help to improve shape and add volume. Visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: Mini Lift with small implants or fat transfers Many women do not like lifts because of the vertical scars associated with the traditional techniques. The technique I recommend is a mini lift. Using a circumareola incision, your breast tissue is reshaped, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. At the same time, small implants or fat transfers can be performed. Implants are not lifetime devices. 8% fail within the first year and 30% fail within six years. Fat transfers are permanent and incorporated into the body.

Answer: Straightforward breast augmentation without a lift will enhance your breasts I recommend consultation with a plastic surgeon to be measured and discuss your goals. 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. 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. You should also be aware that results of surgery can change in the future with significant weight change and/or stretching of skin from the milk of pregnancy. Unfortunately, surgeons have created the term tuberous breasts, a fact which causes unnecessary concerns for women. Many women just have different sizes and shapes and in my opinion shouldn't be labeled. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author. RealSelf Distinguished Hall of Fame.
