I am currently "Doctor Shopping" for breast Augmentation and have several consults set up. I have done both the pencil & pinch test. I can barely even hold a pencil and when I manage, my nipple is above. But with pinch test my thumb just barely grazes the very bottom of my areola but is nowhere near the actual nipple. What the heck does this mean? Am I passing or failing? I am pretty sure I have pseudo ptosis and I want a more natural look anyway. Do you think I will need a lift?

Answer: Candidate for Breast Lift It is hard to determine if you are a good candidate for a breast lift or augmentation without being examined in person or without seeing photos from multiple angles. A general rule to determining if a lift is needed is if the nipple is below the breast fold and how much breast tissue is below the fold. I recommend consulting with a plastic surgeon in person so they may better determine which procedure is best for you and what is needed to help you achieve the aesthetic results you desire.Kamran Azad MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
