I'm a C cup but my breasts are super saggy and my areolas are extremely enlarged. I had a consult with a plastic surgeon about getting a reduction + lift but she thought only the lift was necessary and would slightly reduce the size of my breasts. The thing is I hate the thought of having even remotely large breasts and I want them as tiny as possible? What do you think my results would be with just a lift? (She's doing a lollipop incision to lift my breasts and greatly reduce my areolas). I'm very petite - 107 lbs and 5'4" so the large breasts hurt my back and look disproportionate.This picture is what my breasts look like now
Answer: What do perky C cups really look like? A vertical breast lift or reduction would be a reasonable option just based upon your photos. Find an expert in breast surgery who has great reviews and great before and after photos.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: The ideal breast Thank you for your question and photo.Allow me to give you my opinion on what a perky breast should look like...A youthful breast is not about size. What makes a female breast beautiful is a high position on the chest, skin tightness, symmetry, round shape, firmness, areolas that are proportionate to the size of the breast and the least amount of scars possible.In your case, I would not give you a highly visible vertical scar, nor would I reduce the size of your breasts. Your breasts are causing back and neck pain because the weight of the breast is on your skin envelope pulling and aggravating your sensory nerves. There is a new technique called the Ultimate Breast Lift that does not require a vertical scar and that anchors your breast on to your chest muscle to provide long term results and relieve back/neck pain. So, you see a reduction is not necessary to alleviate the pain. Your chest muscles will carry the weight for you. Your areolas will be reduced and your breasts will be reshaped and repositioned higher on the chest wall. Should you insist on a reduction, it can be achieved with the same technique.Best wishes,Gary Horndeski M.D.

Answer: Reduction and Lift Hello,If you want your breasts smaller, you could have them reduced safely. Given the degree of sag, your areolar width, and your desire for being small (and I assume tight), a formal type of anchor incision breast reduction would give you the best result. Any answers you get from this website does not replace an in-person consultation with a plastic surgeon who is expert in all forms of cosmetic breast surgery. Risks, benefits, and alternatives will be discussed with you so that you can make the most informed decision possible. Best of luck!

Answer: Breast lift vs. breast reduction If your goal is to make your breasts as tiny as possible, then a breast reduction should be performed, not a breast lift. Hopefully, you have expressed your goals with your plastic surgeon to meet your expectations. Thank you for sharing your questions and photo. Best wishes.

Answer: Breast lift or reduction? A breast lift would address your concerns in regard the shape, position and areola size. A breast reduction could do all this also, but would also make your breasts smaller. The question is, do you feel your breast are too big or just too low and saggy. I usually ask my patients how do they feel about their breast size when they are up in a good supportive bra. If you feel they are about right size then, maybe only a lift. If you feel your breast are way too big up in the bra then you probably need a true reduction. Most of the patients I have had with your appearance have picked in between with a lift with small reduction. That way I try to get exactly what they want. Discuss all this with your plastic surgeon.
