No lift implant. I am 47, 5’6”, 170#. My breasts are nice by most people's standards but I would like a little more fullness. I would prefer fewer scars as well. What are the chances I can get 350’ish CC’s and NOT end up with snoopy, waterfall breasts.

Answer: Chances are good 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. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Snoopy breasts Thanks for your question! If you were a patient at my practice, I would probably not agree to giving you implants without a lift. Your breasts are pretty because the nipples are still pointing forward but your nipple and areola are completely below your inframammary fold. I think just an implant is a mistake. Please be sure to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
