Will Stretch Marks Change the Outcome of a Breast Lift?

A breast lift will give you perkier breasts, even if you have stretch marks. Wearing a good supportive bra and following a healthy lifestyle will maintain your results, however you should note that eventually, your breasts will sag with age. At rate they will sag is unpredictable, though.You should note that your stretch marks may not be removed with the surgery.

Yes, unfortunately, the presence of stretch marks indicates a loss of skin elasticity and can severely influence the outcome and longevity of breast lifting (and other body contouring) procedures.

In person consultation with well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons will be the best place to start.  As you do your “homework” you will learn about the potential risks/complications.  Also consider issues such as timing of the surgery in relation to your life circumstances ( such as relationships and/or pregnancies). Ideally, it is best to to these procedures when you have completed pregnancies and are in a long-term stable psychosocial situation.

Make sure you do your due diligence and see lots of examples of the plastic surgeons'  work.

Best wishes.

The stretch marks may indicate that your skin has poor elasticity and is at a higher risk of recurrent sagging (ptosis). This is certainly true of patients with a history of massive weight loss.
