I don’t want a breast lift can I just get the implants alone?
Answer: You will need a breast lift Hello hepburnn, The appropriate solution for saggy breasts and low set nipples is a breast lift surgery. Implants alone cannot solve your concerns. Keeping only implant will make your upper breast big and lower breast will not change significantly, leading to a very abnormal appearance and obvious visible implant. Please consult a board certified plastic surgeon for detailed examination before deciding. Hope this helps. Thanks for your query here.

Answer: Implants do no lifting, they could help with some illusion of lift 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. They then get to 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. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Breast Ptosis Hi there,Thank you for your question! You can absolutely just get implants, and it may provide a bit of a lift in your overall breast shape by filling out the upper half of your breast where you have lost tissue. But, the only way to fully correct your breast ptosis, which is the downward turning on your nipples would be to perform a mastopexy, which is a breast lift. I would recommend consulting with a plastic surgeon in your area to review the details and your expectations.Thanks!

Answer: Breast lift Thanks for your question! If you are going to commit to implants, you should also commit to a mastopexy or breast lift. You won’t be happy without one. Good luck!

Answer: Bellesoma Method 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. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
