Are my Breasts Still Sitting Low After Breast Lift and Augmentation?

 When dealing with a deflated breast like yours I have found that it is necessary to place the nipple areolar complex higher than you might usually expect for a standard mastopexy.  I think this occurs because the skin lack descent elasticity.  

Hello,

You will get different answers depending on whom you ask.  The implant position is the foundation of the breast shape so it is important to establish the optimum  breast implant position prior to determining the amount of lift needed etc.  If you look at your before photos and imagine where you would draw the position of the implant in its ideal location for your chest it would be slightly higher than your current implant position.  I am a big fan of subfascial breast augmentation but not everyone is an ideal candidate for this.  Significant breast skin and soft tissue laxity is one factor that should be weighed carefully when the implant is considered to be placed in the above the muscle position.

All the best,
