I want a reduction/lift, but my surgeon says that my breast crease is so low to make an aesthetically pleasing result all he can really do is a lift, and it’s impossible to move my fold up on my chest. I hate how much of my torso my breasts take up. I will still look huge and I don’t want that. I want to see more of my torso/rib cage while having perky, round breasts not huge round, breasts
Answer: The breast fold is different for each patient and is fixed. Unfortunately, there is no way to move the fold of your breast upward to position your breast higher on your chest. Some peoples folds sit higher and some lower. For patients with a low fold, if they also have a ptotic breast, a breast lift can be done to position the nipple and areola above the level of the fold, which is where it supposed to be. However modifying the level of the fold is not possible.

Answer: Is it possible to move the actual crease of the breast up? Hello, thank you for your question. it is hard to tell without proper photos or a physical examination. I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Low Inframammary Fold You would need to be examined. However, a fold can be lifted if that is truly the case. You should see a few more surgeons.

Answer: The Bellesoma Method The traditional breast lift and reductions techniques reposition the areola not the breast mound. The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method. This will reduce and reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying pectoralis major muscle resulting in pain relief without excessive reduction. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast lift Dear Tasteful9380, my preferred lift is a lollipop lift when a periareolar won't do (ie greater than 2cm lift required). The lollipop technique was created by a Canadian plastic surgeon named Elizabeth Hall-Findley and treats the breast as a three dimensional structure instead of two dimensions (anchor - lift). Most importantly it does not require the horizontal component scars that the anchor-lift requires and breasts appear much more natural, lifted, and less boxy. Lastly, the lift lasts longer because the lollipop doesn't rely on the skin to hold the breast up, its actually breast tissue thats being brought together to support the breast and hence improves longevity. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
