Hi all So I have had a few consultations and I’ve been given different advice. I am wanting breast implants but some surgeons have advised a lift and others haven’t. Looking for further opinions?
Answer: Lift Your photo is taken with your arms raised so it does distort and raise your breast some. Measurements are needed to be certain. If your breasts look the same with your arms down by your sides, then you might do well with just an augmentation, especially if you want the more "natural " look.

Answer: Breast implants vs a lift Hello, thank you for your question. You have natural breast tissue, an implant will just enlarge the overall breast. A lift will lift the natural breast tissue. If you just want bigger breasts than an implant will suffice. If you prefer perkier larger breasts than a lift would be needed. Speak to your plastic surgeon about your options and feel free to check out our breast lift before and afters through our link.

Answer: Results You have some asymmetry of the nipple position and breast size. A lifting procedure along with differently sized implants can address this. If it is not performed the asymmetry will remain after augmentation and may be more noticeable when the breasts have added volume. I encourage you to discuss your goals with your surgeon to determine which procedures are best to help you get the look you are wanting.

Answer: Do I need a breast lift? You might not need one After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, if interested. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: Do I need a lift If you get implants you would get a better result with a lift. If you don’t want the scars from a lift don’t get any surgery at all. You have enough volume as is.
