Do I need a Breast Lift or can I just get implants to achieve the look I'm going for?

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. Yes I do think you can approximate your wish pictures with an augmentation alone. Hope this helps.

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a great candidate for breast augmentation and do not need a lift. You will have a fantastic result.

HelloThank you for the question,I advise you to have a consultation with a plastic surgeon so you can try different implants after relevant measurements.The type of the surgery can only be confirmed after consultation but most probably you will not need any lift.Best wishes

Hello. In my opinion breast implant alone will give you desired shape and projection. You will not required any breast lift procedure. Best is to consult board certified plastic surgeon. Thanks for posting your query. Hope i have cleared your doubt. Best wishes!

Hello @Jmgxx thank you for your question and showing your pictures. Without a proper assessment an expert opinion is not possible. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD FACS

It depends on the placement of your nipples in relation to your breast fold. If you nipples are located below your breast fold, then a lift and augmentation would be recommended. This is because your wish pic shows significantly rounded breasts that sit relatively higher up on the chest.

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, fat transfers or small implants can be placed totally submuscular.

I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. 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 then get to choose what looks right for them. 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.

Thanks for the question. This is a very common presentation in my clinic where patients are not sure whether they only implants or implants with uplift. After measurements of breast base and nipple position, i discuss what results can be achieved by only implants and with implants and uplift. In some cases desired results can be achieved by sing higher profile implants. Please book a consultation with a plastic surgery Consultant to discuss your case. From the pictures provided you can get good results by choosing a higher profile implants

Based on these photos you do not need breast lift; augmentation with implants would be quite sufficient. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, expert in breast surgery, to decide about size (implant volume) is recommended. Good luck.
