3 months post op - sagging breasts? (Photo)

The fact that you are asking the question tells me you suspect you should have gone with a traditional lift. It has more scarring, but gives a more predictable outcome.

A key part of a breast  lift is going to be the tightening of the skin envelope around the breast. If the scar is limited to around the nipple not as much tightening of the lower pole skin is possible.  This can mean that over time the result of the lift will " bottom out".The other issue can be that there is more tension on the scar around the nipple will allow stretching and dilatation of the nipple.The solution to these is to tighten the skin elsewhere and that is where the vertical scar of the lollipop comes into it. Tightening this skin supports the lower pole of the breast and minimisies the chances of bottoming out, and takes the tension off the scar around the areola so minimises the risk of stretching.  The down side of course is the scar - and only each patient can assess in their mind the pros and cons of each.I hope that is of some helpJeremy Hunt
