What breast lift type do I need? (photos)

HiAs you can see there are multiple different techniques to achieve your breast lift.  My advice is to go with the best scar pattern which is a horizontal scar which sits in the groove under the breast and not vertical scar.  I am the only surgeon in Melbourne and possibly Australia who uses this technique.CheersDamien

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well.. based in your question and the picture you showed you are a good candidate for breast lift  with implant in your case for best result you can apply for position sub glandular , its recommended if you get a consultation in person with a plastic surgeon to determinate how many cc do you need to the better results.

Dear boobiespls,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.Daniel Barrett, MD

You are an excellent candidate
for The Bellesoma Method.  This will
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 long term stability.  Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation
and the ability to breast feed are maintained. 
At the same time or later, fat transfers can be performed if additional
volume is desired.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Based on your photos- you appear to be a good candidate for Mastopexy/ breast lift with possible smaller implants - if you desire more volume. I do not recommend fat transfer to breasts as it is not a reliable way to augment the breasts.

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photographs, you are a
great candidate for a vertical or wise pattern breast lift.  This can be designed to result in an
improved shape and contour of your breasts while minimizing scar
appearance.  I don't think you will need fat grafting.  Cost varies based on geographic region and surgeon expertise.  Make sure you specifically look at before and after
pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon
and evaluate their results.
Best wishes and good luck.

boobiespls Hi There , Thank you for your Question Many surgeons, including myself, offer online virtual consultations where you send us your photos and we can estimate the cost. I, like many surgeons, also offer free consultations so that you can be examined and given the most accurate quote.High
profile are taller and narrow implants when compared to moderate profile
implants of the same volume. The decision is usually based on the
patient breast dimensions. And I also factor the patients desires. Also
i try my best to respect the skin quality and elasticity in
order to prevent future drooping due to unnecessarily heavy implants.

Hello and thanks for your questions and photos.  After reviewing your photos, description and list of desires, it seems that you would be a fantastic candidate to have a breast lift using the Bellesoma technique. You should not lose any size with this type of lift and will likely look really great after removal of excess loose skin (same amount of breast tissue in a smaller package).  If you would like to add more fullness and volume, a natural fat transfer using your own tissue can be performed after your lift to give you the look you're wanting. This procedure also typically completely relieves all neck, back, and shoulder pain associated with "hanging" breasts.  You've provided great information - the only thing that would be more helpful in order to give you the best advice about your options would be an in-person exam.
Bellesoma is a new breast lift technique that seems like it would be a great fit for you, and would improve the appearance of your stretch marks.  This procedure utilizes 3-D volumetric scanning and a multi-point measuring system to design a customized, precise surgical blueprint exactly tailored to your body and the lifted, perky breasts that you desire. The Bellesoma procedure reduces the sagging of your breast, lifts your breast and reduces areola diameter, preserves the nipple sensation and ability to breast feed, and looks as full and perky as if an implant had been placed without using any implant, so no need to compromise.  One of the huge positives of this technique is that there is no vertical incision traveling down the front of your breasts. 
Some of the differences between Bellesoma and the traditional breast reduction/lift techniques:
-Bellesoma creates upper pole fullness and projection that traditionally needed an implant to achieve.
-There is NO vertical scar, only well-hidden scars in the fold under the breast, and around the areola.
-The breast is dynamically supported by attaching it to the muscle, so there is no recurrence of sagging which are expected with traditional lifts or reductions.
-The entire central portion of the breast is undisturbed, so nipple sensation remains intact and is very unlikely to be compromised giving the best possible chance for future breast feeding.
-For absolute best results, patients should have a stable weight and have a BMI under 30.
The procedure is accomplished by using the skin of the lower pole of the breast (the part below the nipple that sits in the bra cup) to shape the whole breast into a perky dome, then straps are made of the extra skin, anchoring it to the underlying chest muscle so that there is virtually no chance of repeat sagging.  The skin that above your nipple and below your collar bone is utilized to cover the perky, lifted dome that has been created and then a new (usually smaller) circular opening for the areola is placed at the high point of the cone, creating your new lifted, full and shapely breast.
From your description you seem to be a very good candidate for this new technique and should really get the look that you are desiring without implants or unnecessary visible scars. Pricing for a breast lift and fat transfer augmentation varies widely by surgeon experience and geographic area.  I would recommend that you search for an ABPS board certified plastic surgeon who is also a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons in your area or an area that you would like to travel to who offers the Bellesoma technique to discuss your breast lift and possible results. Make sure to look at the before and after photos!  My office staff and I would be happy to assist.
Best wishes!

I would suggest a vertical scar (lollipop) breast lift with auto-augmentation of the upper pole utilising tissue from the lower pole of the breast. This will improve your upper pole fullness and shape. If you'd like, this can be combined with fat grafting to improve overall shape and volume.
From a costs point of view, prices can vary from 11 - 15k depending on insurance coverage.
Best of luck

Hi, thanks for sharing your concern and photos with us!

Looking at your photos I might say that you´ll be a great candidate to get a breast lift without implants because you have enough tissue to reshape and lift it. Before all this, of course, you need to get a complete medical evaluation and laboratory exams to check everything is fine. Also please try to find a board certified plastic surgeon, remember that your safety, always, is going to be first.

Have a great day!
