I want my breasts to sit higher on my chest and would also be interested in decreasing the size of the areola and removing axillary breast tissue in the armpits. I am definitely concerned about the potential for scars and loss of sensation. What are my options here? Thanks for your help! (note: in the third photo I am using my hand to pull the breast upwards to approximate how I would ideally want it to look)

Answer: Do I need a breast lift? Implants do no lifting and only give volume and size. A breast lift is needed when the nipple and areola are at a level beneath the crease or fold under your breast.This appears to be the case in the picture you posted. Ask your surgeon if they use the published I.D.E.A.L breast lift approach. With this approach the implant is placed first; then all stretched tissues are stapled together. This lets the surgeon see the final result in one step BEFORE any incisions are made. This technique safely removes the maximum amount of extra skin, giving the maximum lift. I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I do this with my patients, we then look at pictures of women with similar measurements. My patients tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what is right for them. Sensation loss is rare.
