Will my breasts sit higher with implants alone or do I also need a lift?

October 4, 2019
Asked By:SNY548 in Rhode Island, RI

I have been interested in a BA for years, but in a recent consultation, I was told that I may need a breast lift instead and then implants- a total of 12,000- which is way out of my budget and just ridiculous in my opinion. I want my breast to sit high, perk enough that I don’t “need” a bra when I wear a deep cut shirt. My question is, will my breasts appear to sit higher with BA/implants alone or do I really need a BL to achieve that look? I’m 27 with no children.
