29, healthy, no kids. 5' 5", 104 lbs. Had fairly large breasts the majority of my life, recently went through a very quick loss of volume, looking to regain a natural and full shape. Curious if an implant alone would give a natural and pleasing outcome.
Answer: Implants Alone Based on this single photo, it is possible that an implant alone would work. The ideal answer would come from a physical exam in which your surgeon uses exact measurements to determine if you need more than an implant (a lift as well). I would recommend seeing a board certified or board eligible plastic surgeon with aesthetic surgery training/experience who can perform a full exam and provide safe recommendations.

Answer: Breast Implants Thank you for your question about breast implants. Selecting the most appropriate breast implant size for breast augmentation is a personal decision that ultimately you have to make. An in-person consultation with implant sizing is best. It depends on your height, weight and breast base width diameter. To know what might be right for you, see two or more experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeons for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have breast implant surgery. I hope this helps.

Answer: Would implants alone work? Hello, Thank you for the question. Based on your photo, you appear to be a good candidate for breast augmentation surgery. Implant size discussion and implant selection is one of the most important steps during your consultation with plastic surgeon. The decision-making process depends on your desires, as well as breast and soft tissue dimensions of your chest wall. I also utilize Vectra 3D planning to further help with implant selection. The breast implants are typically placed under the muscle to provide more soft tissue coverage using a small incision at the breast fold. I would seek an in-person evaluation by the Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon, in order to discuss your goals and concerns for the best cosmetic results. I hope this helps.Best regards, Dr. Karanetz Dr. Irena KaranetzBreast Fellowship-TrainedBoard Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Implants Alone? Hello and thank you for your question/photo. Based on your single photo it would suggest that you would be fine with a breast augmentation alone and would not need a breast lift. This of course would need to be verified using measurements in the office during a consultation. I am confident you would have a very natural and pleasing result using only implants and avoiding a breast lift. Hope this helps.
