I'm 19 years old and have always had large breasts at the age of 13 I wore a size 34G. As of recently lost around 40 pounds due to healthy eating and exercise. I have always had an issue with sagging but even more so now that I've dropped down to a 34DD. Although I'm a 34DD my breasts aren't full and are actually very small. I have a lot of excess stretched skin and not a lot of mass in my breasts. I want to have a lift but also want to obtain a look of perfection with a teardrop implant. HELP

Answer: Sagging Breasts Age 19. Lift? Teardrop Implants? Thank you for your question! Congratulations on your weight loss! By look at your photos, it appears that you may have sufficient breast tissue to perform a breast lift only. The surgeon would most likely keep all of your current breast tissue and use it as a way to perform an "auto-augmentation" that is, rather than using an implant, he or she could use your existing tissue to lift your breasts and provide for more perky appearing breasts. The best way to know if you would benefit from the use of implants would be to specifically ask the surgeon you interview with. On exam, he or she will have a better understanding rather than just looking at your photos. I have had great results only performing a breast lift with breasts shaped just like yours. If you still want more upper breast pole fullness, then implants would assist with that appearance. I hope this helps!!

Answer: Lift and reduction only I would only do a lift and reduction. You can get implants later if desired but I would not do at the same time for sure. You may be very happy without implants. A perky C cup may be just what you want. Good Luck!

Answer: Breast Enhancement after Weight Loss Congratulations on your weight loss. From your images it appears that you have skin laxity, with the majority of your fullness sitting low. A breast lift would be my initial recommendation; With perhaps a small implant to enhance your upper breast fullness if that is the look you are trying to achieve. Depending on the physical exam of the tissue, and measurements this can be performed as a combined procedure or staged. I recommend that you see a few surgeons in your area that have a significant experience in this procedure- particularly if combining a breast lift with an augmentation.Best wishes,Sergio Maggi, MD, FACSDirector- Austin Plastic Surgery Center
