I am after advice / opinions on whether a breast lift would be needed alongside augmentation.
Answer: Augmentation mastopexy Thanks for your question. The nipples are in a good position relative to your breasts, so I would suggest that it is unlikely that a lift will be needed alongside your augmentation. However, you may wish to address any pre-existing asymmetry between your breasts by adjusting the skin envelope of the breasts at the same time as the augmentation.

Answer: Do I need a lift? An in person evaluation or more views would help with the best recommendation for you. From the submitted photo it appears there is some asymmetry with one breast being larger and sagging lower. In order to fully correct this a lift with implants would be needed. I encourage you to visit with a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation. Together you can discuss the look you want to achieve and options available to reach that goal.

Answer: Mini lift with fat transfers or small implants Your breasts are asymmetrical in volume, shape and position. I recommend a mini lift. Using a circumareola incision, your breast tissue is reshaped, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage. At the same time, fat transfers or small implants can be placed totally submuscular.

Answer: No lift; Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. 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.
