My surgery is scheduled 4 weeks from today April 16 th. I'm getting kinda nervous and would like some input. I've asked before but didn't add pics. Thanks in advance.

Answer: 800cc aug/pexy Thanks for the pictures and question! I am interested what my online colleagues would say, but in my humble opinion I am also nervous about your surgical plan. I think an 800cc implant is probably too large for you. Additionally, I do not believe a crescent lift is the best option to correct your asymmetry and nipple position. I think it would be worth having a second opinion with a board certified plastic surgeon to be sure. If the second surgeon has the same plan at least you will be less nervous. Just for some perspective, I have attached before and after pictures of a patient of mine that had slightly more ptosis, but a similar body type and breast size. These are 420 filled to 460cc saline implants with a lollypop lift. Best of luck!

Answer: Large Breast Implants in Sagging Breasts Realistically you are not going to go from where you are now to the breast look you are expecting. Regardless of breast implant size you have, you have a breast sagging/deflation issue which is going to be further magnified the bigger the breast implants get. Adding a crescent nipple lift at the time of the implants will not help and will just end up with a wide upper areolar scar. You should manage the breast sagging first and then have implants of that size placed. This will give the best result.
