Would a breast lift work for me? (Photo)

The technique I recommend is 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. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good candidate for a breast lift or a breast lift with implants. The breast lift would address your droop/sag issue and reduce the size of your areolas as well as place them at a higher position. In addition, you can add volume with implants. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Hi there, thanks for your question. Yes, based on your photos you are an excellent candidate for a breast lift. You would need the anchor scar but you could achieve a nice cup size and shape by doing a lift without removing any of your breast tissue to leave them as big as possible.

Thank you for your inquiry about a breast lift. Congratulations on your weight loss. This achievement will undoubtedly enhance your overall health.
The downside of weight loss can often be a decrease in breast volume. Considering your situation, an anchor breast lift, which allows for nipple repositioning and reshaping of the breast, would likely be beneficial.
We can insert a breast implant during the procedure if you desire added volume. This surgery typically takes about four hours under general anesthesia, with a recovery period of approximately two weeks.
In conclusion, given your circumstances, a breast lift could be advantageous due to the potential for substantial improvements.
Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Congrats on your weight loss! Based on limited photos- it appears that you are a good candidate for mastopexy/ lift . In the right hands - it will help you achieve perky, more youthful breasts.

Of course you need a breast lift in inverted T, also you need a breast implants, it worth it, you will be so happy!!! Do it!! Do it!!!

Hi Optimistic542987,
Based on the photos, your breasts have a deflated appearance, or stated differently they have too much skin for the volume contained within. I breast lift would do several things. First, it would allow removal of your skin excess. Second, it would allow your nipple to be repositioned to a forward facing location. Third, it would allow an active internal reshaping of the breast tissue, to move it higher on her chest wall. You are correct that she would need an anchor type scar (also refered to as a wise pattern incision). I would definitely suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss the surgery in more detail.
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question and pictures.

It's common to lose volume in the breasts after a massive weight loss. In your case I would recommend a lift, reduction and implants. Because of your age, I would suggest considering doing this after you're done having children in case you plan on breastfeeding.

I'm glad to see you're aware of the scarring of a breast lift. Every Plastic Surgeon will do everything possible to avoid extra scarring, but unfortunately every lift leaves a scar. I recommend looking at a lot of before and after pictures to get a better idea of how you'll look.

Hello @Optimistic542987, thank you for your question. It is possible to reposition and improve the shape of the breast with minimal scarring by raising the base and improving the overall proportion. This will create overall harmony. The lift will be made through an L shape incision scar rather than an anchor with the BRALAN technique (Breast Reconstruction Anatomical Lift Augmentation) can be performed to reposition the mammary tissue and enhance projection of the upper pole and media areas. A consultation is vital to establishing a surgical plan that meets your needs, meets your expectations, and takes into account what is possible. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Congratulations on your weight loss! That is such an important achievement. How did you loose weight?
Yes, a lift can reshape your breasts and position your nipples in the ideal location. Your concern about skin quality is valid. Breast lifts always change over time. The more stretchy your breast skin, the faster they typically change. So planning for those changes is important. To me that means you will probably benefit from more than one breast shaping procedure over your lifetime. The first operation should be performed with this in mind to preserve as much blood and nerve supply to your nipples as possible.
