I was AA and saved for 2 years to get BA. After healing, my implants were way up on chest and nipples were pointing to the floor. Young and trusting, I paid AGAIN full price for the surgeon to correct mistake. She switched implants for larger ones AND did a full lift. My areolas stretched over time and the scars widened. I’d love my areolas and nipples to be tiny. Best route?

Answer: Breast lift Thank you for your question and pictures. From the look of your pictures you had a vertical lift which did not fully correct the look you are desiring. This can be fixed with a full mastopexy, or breast lift, with an anchor scar. The original surgeon may want to do this for you at no charge since you did not get the results you wanted but she may not want to. Otherwise, you may need to see another board certified PS for you revision surgery.

Answer: Time for a new surgeon I'll be candid, your results look like a non-board certified plastic surgeon did your surgery. You were never a candidate for breast augmentation without a lift in the first place, another worrisome sign your surgeon wasn't certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Your scars are poor, and could be much better, and your lift is insufficient. Please find a real breast expert for this complex revision procedure.

Answer: Explant with Bellesoma Method At this time, I recommend 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.
