I am 22 years old with no children. Due to weight loss, I'm left with droopy breasts. My big areolas look a lot worse on my current breast shape. What procedure(s) would I have to have to achieve breasts similar to the woman in the attached photo? She underwent a breast augmentation without a lift. Could I achieve a similar result without a lift?....or maybe Augmentation with nipple lift/reduction? I'd just hate to have those scars around my areolas. Please help!!!
Answer: Breast Lift/Augmentation Hello,Thank you for your question and photos. Congratulations on your weight loss. The person in your wish photo has areolas which are smaller and positioned higher on the breast mound. Unfortunately, breast augmentation alone will not lift and resize your areolas to look similar to hers. There are scar treatments which work very well to minimize the appearance of mastopexy scars. I recommend that you meet with a board certified Plastic Surgeon who specializes in these procedures and find out about your options in person.All the best

Answer: Breast augmentation with lift or not? Thank you for your question. Based on your photos it looks like you would be best served with a combination of breast lift with augmentation. The parameters of both the breast lift and the position of the breast implants should be designed to keep the implants relatively low while lifting the breast tissue and nipple to sit directly over the implants. Many techniques exist in breast surgery, and combined lifting with augmentation is especially tricky. The key is working with an expert, board certified plastic surgeon to get the best plan for the individual.

Answer: Will I need a lift? To achieve results that are cosmetically acceptable, long-lasting, and satisfying, you will definitely need a lift with implants. The lift does produce scarring around the nipples and the breast skin, however, this usually heals very well and becomes thin and light with time. Never compromise the best cosmetic result because you are worried about scarring or trying to cut costs. Hope this helps with your decision.

Answer: What procedure will give me my desired breast result? From your photos - it appears that you would benefit from a lift with smaller implants. In my opinion- only a lift (with or without implants)will make your breasts perky and help you achieve the result you're seeking. Be sure to seek an experienced Board Certified PS for in person exam
