I agrred to a full lift however i just dont see how that will give me what i wanted. Extremely depressed. This is after 455 implants and capsulectomy. Im already thinking of a revision after the lift I honestly dint know what to do and am panicking. Will fat transfer help? I dont have much fat. This was 25k
Answer: Donut Lift not a full lift Hello, you certainly needed a true, full breast lift, but you received a donut/circumareolar/Benelli lift, and are suffering from almost all the negative effects of applying that type of lift to your type of breast. You don't need fat grafting, you need a full lift. Additionally, there are issues with your implant pockets as well. Regardless of how you manage this issue with your current surgeon, you should see out consultations with other surgeons who are revision breast experts and avoid further surgery with him or her.

Answer: What to do . . . Depending on your desires and expectations, I may offer a different direction of treatment. A common goal (not alway) is to have the highest, tightest and shapely breast. if you have ptosis, then a mastopexy is needed with, or without an implant. In your case, to achieve this goal with such large implants can be very difficult and fought with complications and ultimately a unsuccessful expensive adventure. In your case, the most risk free, durable course would be to remove your implants and do a mastopexy. This will provide the highest, tightest breast with the maximum symmetry with little worry of complications. Then, if desires, augmentation (either fat transfer or saline implant) can be carried out in a delayed fashion with predictable, least risky outcome. Of course, there are some very talented, experienced breast surgeons that can do in one step, but you want to vet your options careful moving forward as you have already been through some procedures without the desired outcome. Thank you.

Answer: Outcome I would highly recommend downsizing implants, placing an internal bra/scaffold (Galaflex) for internal support, tighten the internal pocket, and perform a breast lift (mastopexy). Large implants lead to large problems even though they can temporarily fill out the breast skin envelope. I recommend finding a board-eligible or board-certified plastic surgeon with at least 7 years of training in plastic surgery (6 years of plastic surgery residency and 1 year of accredited Aesthetic Society fellowship).

Answer: Lift Go back to your surgeon and discuss your concerns. Your surgeon should be able to correct the sagging of the one areola and decrease the size so you will march. Review your paperwork about revisions and costs,
