I am currently doing research for a mommy makeover. I am so excited for my tummy tuck but I have a question about my breasts. Ideally I would only like a breast lift. I am a 34dd right now and would love to get to a C cup. Would a breast lift without implants be the best idea based on my photo? I would like them lifted and smaller but am concerned they will not be as lifted as I would like without an implant.
Answer: Would a breast lift without augmentation be the best idea? Hello. Great question. Thank you or your pictures. Based on your images, you may benefit from a breast lift procedure with no implants because you do mention you want to be smaller size cup. A breast reduction may work as well. However, a personal examination and/or more images are needed to properly evaluate you results. Please visit a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed surgical plan to achieve your desired results.

Answer: Procedure recommendation Thank you for your question. Based on your photo, you are a candidate for a breast lift. If your ultimate goal is to be smaller than you are today, then I would not recommend getting breast implants. Although a lift will remove some of your own breast tissue, adding an implant will increase your size overall. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon, who can assess you in person, and create a personalized plan for you. Best of luck!

Answer: Don't need implants You don’t need implants if your primary goal is to get perkier breasts. However, if you want significant fullness in the upper portion of your breasts and a much rounder look, then implants may be necessary. During your consultation, it would probably be a good idea to bring some wish pics to illustrate your desired results to your surgeon. That way, they can determine whether implants would be necessary.

Answer: Breast lift without augmentation Thank you for your question. A breast lift will give a more perkier look and raise your nipple position; however, inserting small implants with a mild reduction of your own tissue may provide more upper fullness in the breast. However, it is difficult to predict the final outcome by cup size as each bra manufacturer has varying sizing. Your surgeon will be able to provide the risks and benefits of both procedures so that you can make a decision that best meets your needs. @yorkplasticsurgery

Answer: Breast Lift Surgery / Mastopexy -- Breast Mound Repositioning, Nipple & Areola Relocation, Excess Skin Removal, Fat Grafting, Br You need a formal evaluation by a licensed plastic surgeon and expert in breast lifts, revisions and augmentations to determine what is best for you and your goals. Breast lift surgery can improve a woman's breast shape by repositioning the breast mound at a higher position on the chest and then centering the nipple and areola on the breast itself. If there is enough breast tissue, I can perform a highly aesthetic mastopexy without the addition of further volume by internally rearranging the breast tissue and removing excess skin. If more volume is needed, especially in the upper portion of the breasts, we will discuss the possibility of fat grafting or silicone gel implant placement. The type of incision required for this surgery (circumareolar, “lollipop” or “anchor”) and the lifespan of the lift depends on each patient’s condition, breast tissue, genetics, weight and hormonal fluctuations, and desired results. Augmentation with mastopexy is a challenging surgery that requires significant experience to create a shape that is youthful, natural, and proportionate to the body, while managing the native tissue as well as fat grafts or implants. When performed properly, it can result in a dramatic improvement to a woman’s breast appearance. I suggest consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon and expert in Breast Lifts. - Dr. Cohen
