I'm a 21 year old female looking into getting a breast procedure. Throughout all my teenage years I've gained because of school and hydro lose weight and now I've found my goal weight losing 30 lbs from 170 to 140 and continuing to lose more weight. My main question here is if I need a lift and and augmentation or just an augmentation. I'm looking for my breast to look fuller and not look and feel so empty.

Answer: Breast Augmentation vs Breast Augmentation and LIft Thank you for your questions. Based on the pictures you have provided I would recommend a Breast Augmentation and a Breast lift. This will allow your surgeon to deliver better shape and perkier breasts. I would suggest seeing a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in person to evaluate you and go over your options. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Breast Lift Surgery / Mastopexy -- Breast Mound Repositioning, Nipple & Areola Relocation, Excess Skin Removal, Fat Grafting, Br You need a formal evaluation by a licensed plastic surgeon and expert in breast lifts, revisions and augmentations to determine what is best for you and your goals. Breast lift surgery can improve a woman's breast shape by repositioning the breast mound at a higher position on the chest and then centering the nipple and areola on the breast itself. If there is enough breast tissue, I can perform a highly aesthetic mastopexy without the addition of further volume by internally rearranging the breast tissue and removing excess skin. If more volume is needed, especially in the upper portion of the breasts, we will discuss the possibility of fat grafting or silicone gel implant placement. The type of incision required for this surgery (circumareolar, “lollipop” or “anchor”) and the lifespan of the lift depends on each patient’s condition, breast tissue, genetics, weight and hormonal fluctuations, and desired results. Augmentation with mastopexy is a challenging surgery that requires significant experience to create a shape that is youthful, natural, and proportionate to the body, while managing the native tissue as well as fat grafts or implants. When performed properly, it can result in a dramatic improvement to a woman’s breast appearance. I suggest consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon and expert in Breast Lifts. - Dr. Cohen
