Breast lift: can you pull up nipple and remove excess skin above it, rather than push up below? (Photo)

Asked By:maddielima24 in Los Angeles, CA

I am 28 years old, after losing 10kg 10 years ago my breasts shrunk and sagged dramatically. As per my photos, when I pull the nipple up with my hand, that is all I want done. I am content not having huge breasts, I just desperately want the nipple and breast to sit higher and look nicer. Can you pull the nipple higher by removing excess skin above it & stitching it higher up? I've read you shouldn't depend on skin to hold the breast up and the scar won't heal well. Thank you.
