I'm not sure if I'm the right candidate for a breast lift with implants. I never had children I used to carry quite a lot of weight in my breasts and now they're saggy after losing quite a lot in short time. Fear of bottoming out or needing a lift again in 4years makes me question if I really 'need' implants. I don't want to lose my cup size but I also don't want massive boobs again. thanks in advance

Answer: Breast lift with or without implants Hello and thank you for your question! The breast lift alone with raise and reshape the breasts to a more youthful contour and position whereas adding implants to the mix will serve to increase your volume/cup size and fill out the upper slope of the breast to give you more "cleavage". If you don't wise to have implants, you don't need them! Another great option is to use your own fat with fat grafting/transfer to achieve the extra fullness/roundness on the top part of the breast without needing to add an implant.

Answer: Breast lift with or without implants? Hello @Krushka222, thank you for your question and showing you pictures. Your breast has the perfect shape to perform a breast pexy (lift) and a reconfiguration of the tissue, to lift it and give it a good shape. It would have a very favorable esthetic result because you have good mammary gland. This would give a very good shape without the need to insert prosthesis. It is important that you have a consultation with a board certified specialist to determine a surgical plan according to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: In person evaluation needed for a better answer I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, and they choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.
