Hi I’m a eighteen year old black woman who is around 5”1/155 cm and I’m 132lbs/60 kg. I’m interested in doing the breast lift and I have very sagging breast and have had saggy breast for 4 years. I used to be heavier and lost a lot of weight. Everyone around me has breast that lift and that look better than mines, my breast are my only self confident issue. I was wondering if I can get them done at my age, I do plan to maybe have children in the future, would that pervent the surgery? Thank you!

Answer: Yes, you can have a lift at 18 but the surgical result could possibly change after childbirth 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, and they choose what looks right for them. 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. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Answer: I’m 18 and I would like to do breast lift to boost my confidence but unsure Hello @Compassionate789790 tank you for your question and showing your picture. yes you can have a breast lift at eighteen years old. If you have children there is no problem. in a breast lift with or without implants, the areola and nipple are lifted, the breast shape is improved either by reorganizing the breast or placing volume with prostheses. Before the surgery, the plastic surgeon must assess the individual characteristics of the patient's breasts, as well as her general condition for a correct indication of the intervention.
