Should I get a breast implant if I have dense tissue?

May 24, 2023
Asked By:SuperMomof2 in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida

I’m going to get a breast reduction and lift. I’ve been advised by 3 doctors that I do not need an implant bc I have enough dense tissue. I’m second guessing getting an implant bc I want the results to last as long as possible. How long will a lift typically last if I do not have an implant? And should I go ahead and have one put in?
