Hello, I want to do a breastlift, im Young so My breats are full but they sag quite a lot. I went to one doctor and he told me that the surgery could be Done and that I would be pleased with the results. Another doctor told Me My breasts are too heavy and I have to do a reduction to achieve the results I want (natural but more young breasts). Im confused now, what should I do? Im a 34 DD now and dont want to be smaller. I have to loose weight, but My breats didnt get bigger when i gained weight.
Answer: Breast lift on larger breasts A breast lift on heavier breasts will make them perkier, but your results may not last as long as a lift on smaller, lighter breasts simply because of the effect of gravity. If you are currently trying to lose weight, I suggest you reach your ideal weight first then consider having surgery. That way your results will last longer as they won’t be affected by subsequent weight loss (which can make your breasts saggy). At that time, you can also consider if your breasts are the right size for you, or if they’re too large for your thinner frame.

Answer: Breast Lift vs Breast Reduction A breast lift and breast reduction can be similar. This should be determined by your plastic surgeon. I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with and who is a board-certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Answer: A Reduction with the Breast Lift Hello and thank you for your question. I would only tell you as I do my patients that the inclusion of a breast reduction in your procedure would be your final decision.Candidates for Breast Lift (#Mastopexy) surgery are women who have #saggingbreasts due to past pregnancies, genetics, or aging. Often times the sagging is too great to be treated by implants alone. Women with asymmetric or enlarged nipples or areolae (pigmented areas around nipples) also may be candidates for a breast lift or a modification of a lift. #Asymmetric breast can be adjusted by adding or removing volume. One side can be tightened more or less than another. Some patients will have a better shape to their breast such as increased superior fullness if an implant is used at the time of mastopexy. The procedure can also be combined with a minor breast reduction to reduce the breast width if desired. The surgery will create an elevated, more youthful breast contour. Also, the procedure will create nipple and areolae of the desired size and at the correct height.

Answer: Breast lift candidate Only surgery and in particular a lift will improve your appearance as you desire. Here is some general information that may be of help to you.BREAST LIFT (MASTOPEXY)WHO IS A CANDIDATE If you have sagging breasts due to past pregnancies, genetics, weight loss, or aging.If the sagging is expected to be present after an implant.If your nipple-areolar complexes (pigmented areas around nipples) are enlarged or not similar.INTENDED RESULTA mastopexy or breast-lift operation is designed to improve the shape and position of the breasts without reducing their size. It is used for breasts that sag but are not overly large. Sagging of the breasts may occur with normal development for some women, or as a part of aging. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight loss are other conditions which increase breast ptosis (sagging). Some patients will achieve a better breast shape if an implant is used at the time of mastopexy.Results can include:An elevated, more youthful breast contour.Nipple-areolar complexes of the desired size and at the correct height and similar location

Answer: Breast lift Hello and thank you for your question. It is difficult to accurately answer without an in-person examination, but a breast lift can achieve a nice result, even in patients with larger breasts. 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. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
