Could my breasts be lifted higher with another procedure? (Photo)

Dear Funny60118,
breast revision surgery is the most difficult plastic surgery procedure performed. Botched breast surgery alters normal tissue planes and laxity, the ability of breasts to heal properly, and leaves scar tissue that dramatically affects the level of difficulty of the corrective surgery.Many patients come in to correct poor outcomes from their initial surgeries. The most common problems are due to implant malposition, bottoming out of the implant, poor scarring, and incorrect implant size.While the type of revision required will depend on the result of the previous surgery and the desired result of the patient, some revisions involve extensive pocket repair that may or may not need specialized external bras.If you are considering breast surgery revision, you should speak with a board certified plastic surgeon and have yourself properly assessed. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations. Also, you have to make sure that your surgeon understands your breast augmentation goals.

Hello, thank you for your question. Over time even after a lift, breast tissue will drop. the cleavage is tough to change. Speak to you plastic surgeon during your consultation. Bring in some before and after wish pics. For some before and afters check out our website below.

The technique I recommend is explantation and lift using The Bellesoma Method. The implants are removed, your breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained if not injured during your previous surgery. Later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired.

Best Wishes,

Hello !

It may be possible to achieve the desired results with another procedure, but it would depend on various factors such as the quality of your skin and the current position of your implants. It's important to have a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon who can assess your individual situation and discuss your goals with you.

One option to consider is a revision breast augmentation, which can involve changing the size, shape, or position of your implants. A surgeon may recommend using a different implant size or shape to create the desired fullness and cleavage. In some cases, a breast lift may also be necessary to reposition the breasts and create a more defined cleavage.

Regarding the gap between the breasts, this can also be addressed with a revision surgery. A surgeon can adjust the placement of the implants to create a wider gap or use techniques such as fat grafting to fill in the gap between the breasts. Strattice can also be a good option.

It's important to have a thorough consultation with a qualified surgeon who can help you understand the risks and benefits of each procedure and work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired outcome.

I hope this helps,
best of luck !

No, probably not. Naturally, your breasts sit low on your chest and the bases of your breasts cannot be moved. Adding more volume will increase the risk of more sagging due to the weight. Fat grafting in the upper chest could be done to give some extra fullness. For less gap, you need smaller and a thinner based implant. I would suggest keeping what you have.

The short answer is no. You surgeon did really nice work and you look good. I know EXACTLY what you want--because I have had many patients ask me the exact same question. All we can do with a lift is to reposition the nipples and areolae to where they naturally belong but what we CAN'T do, and what everyone wants, is to move the breasts higher up on the chest. You naturally have a little lower placed breasts on your chest so even after a lift you have the feeling of them being a little low so it makes sense to want a better lift but the reality is that your breasts were restored to the highest position possible.

Good morning, when reviewing your photographs I consider that a breast lift can be performed again, but it would be necessary to reduce the volume a bit to achieve the separation you are looking for and the projection of the upper pole would be according to the lifting technique and would improve the result. . I hope you consider this opinion
