Aug. will be 1yr exact that I exchanged my 15yr implants & had a full anchor lift w/520cc. I have no upper pole fullness and I feel the lift was not tight enough. I am 5”3 140lbs. When I lay on my back I feel like my implants swim around the pockets a little too much. They feel amazing. Do breast lift tend to have a slighter sag/droop. Thank you kindly for your advice.

Answer: Breast Lift and Large Implants Given the larger implants that you have, they do tend to stretch the tissues more over time. Given that you needed a lift is already an indication that your soft tissues have a tendency to stretch excessively. Not sure if you implants are in front of the muscle (it does appear so), but having implants placed behind the muscle would give you more upper pole as would more cohesive implants like the Allergan Soft Touch implants.Just tightening the skin is only temporary solution and the skin will stretch over time. If you are considering breast revision surgery, I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options.Hope that helps.

Answer: Augmentation Mastopexy Revision Hello,Large, high profile implants like yours reek havoc on any mastopexy result. HP implants are narrow and projecting, like a ball, and stretch out the lower pole, leaving the upper pole of your breast empty. You would have much more upper pole fullness with a lower profile, highly cohesive, textured implant. Go visit a few ABPS certified/ASAPS member surgeons who specialize in revision breast surgery. Best of luck!
