I would also like to know what the pros and cons of having teardrop verses round implants. I run a lot as a form of exercise will this cause rotation of the teardrop implant? Looking at a circumareola lift with submuscular placement of the implants. Will the type of implant make a difference if I want more natural breasts as you can see I have severe ptosis and not much fill at the top of my breasts.

Answer: Shaped versus round Anatomy and the size of your breast "footprint" or dimensions of your chest can help pick an implant, angel9691. The thickness of the overlying breast is also an important factor in implant selection. So even a little difference can mean a big change. Different implants have different projection and this varies by manufacturer. Picking the right implant for you depends on a number of factors and talking about this in consultation is the best way to go and sometimes requires changing the shape of the breast with a mastopexy too especially if you have had implants before. Good luck, MMT

Answer: Lift and implants HelloThank you for the question. Based on your question and photos, I would recommend round implants with a full anchor type lift. A full lift will reshape the entire breast. Circumareolae type lifts ( binelli) are not the best option in your case. You have enought ptosis ( sag ) that a full lift is required. There is a lot of confusion about this question and many patients who seek minimal scars are often given this option. However, the final results tend to be poor with wide spread nipples and minimal lifting. Best to you.
