32DD natural boobs; want small implants for perkiness?

I appreciate your question.From your photo, it appears that you would benefit from a breast lift.  A breast lift would reposition your nipples and reshape your breasts, giving them a more youthful appearance.



The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.  Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.



Best of luck!

You will not achieve your goal with just an implant no matter what size you choose-large or small. A breast lift will be necessary to give your breasts a more perky appearance, but understand that even with a lift that only removes skin, your breast size will decrease. A breast lift combined with an implant will probably give you the best results.

Generally speaking, a small implant will provide some superior pole fullness.  The problem with a small implant is the small diameter.  If the implant is "narrow" and it is centered on the nipple, it won't provide much fullness.  The second issue to consider is whether a limited lift to reposition the breast mound would allow a small implant to achieve the fullness desired.  It's not a simple problem and your best action would be to see a local board certified plastic surgeon.  

Hello and thanks for the question. A breast implant alone will not give you perkier breasts. You'll need a breast lift with small volume implants to achieve your aesthetic goals. Consult a BCPS for your care. DrBurnett#realself100

Thank you for your question. I think that you would benefit from a breast lift along with the implant size you and your board certified plastic surgeon come to agree on. An implant alone will not give you the "perky" look you are trying to achieve, without a lift. Best wishes!

A small implant will not give you "perkiness". In my opinion, the only procedure in your case for perkiness is a breast lift.

Thank you for your question.  Based on your photos which show breast sagging (ptosis), you would benefit from a breast lift, which would help to make your breasts more round and perky.  Implants can also be used if you want to have larger breasts.  Be sure to consult with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon.  Good luck.

"Perky"
means different things to different patients. No one can tell you how to achieve your desired breast appearance without an in person examination.
There are multiple options that can produce a cosmetically acceptable result
depending on your desired outcome: an implant alone in front of the muscle or a
dual plane placement of the implant, an implant and a minimal lift with an
incision just around the areola, or an implant in front of the muscle, dual
plane or behind the muscle and a greater lift. Each would result in
a different degree of improvement.
Keep in mind that following advice from a surgeon on this or any other website
who proposes to tell you exactly what to do and how to do it based on limited two dimensional photos
without examining you, physically feeling your tissue, assessing your desired
outcome, taking a full medical history and discussing the pros and cons of the
operative procedure would not be in your best interest. Natural appearing
results need to be individualized and what is appropriate for one patient
is not necessarily the best for someone else. I would suggest that you find a
surgeon certified by the American Board of American Plastic Surgery and one who
is ideally a member of The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
(ASAPS) that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your
concerns with that surgeon in person.

Hi and thanks for the question. Implants will give you a bit of a lift and more fullness in the upper part of your breasts. How much you get will depend on what size and style implants  you go with. My suggestion is to  have a consultation with a practice like ours that uses the Vectra 3-D imaging system. We can use this software to show you what you would look like with any size or style implant. We can also use the program to show 

Thank you for the question and the photos and though an examination is really needed. an implant alone will probably not give you the perky breasts that you desire but only a larger version of your present breasts.Dr. Corbin
