Liposuction combined with Renuvion Skin tightening can reduce breast size, weight and give a modest breast lift is becoming more popular. There are several advantages of the lipo non-surgical breast reduction and lift. Recovery is easier and quicker, it generally does not leave any scars, and it does not lead to loss off sensation or nipple injury. The biggest drawback is that the liposuction based breast reduction can not give as much lift as the open surgical breast reduction.  The liposuction breast reduction and lift is less expensive than open surgical breast lift at least by a few thousand dollars.

Thank you for your question. While a surgical breast lift (mastopexy) is the most effective and permanent solution for lifting and reshaping the breasts, there are several non-surgical, temporary options that can help improve the appearance of sagging breasts:

Supportive Bras: A well-fitted, supportive bra can provide an immediate lift and improve the overall appearance of your breasts. Look for bras specifically designed for lifting and shaping.

Breast Tapes and Adhesive Bras: These products can offer temporary lift and support, especially for special occasions or outfits where a traditional bra may not be suitable.

Topical Firming Creams: Some topical treatments claim to firm and tighten the skin of the breasts. While results can vary, they may offer a slight temporary improvement in the skin's appearance.

Exercise: Strengthening the pectoral muscles beneath your breasts with exercises such as push-ups, chest presses, and dumbbell flyes can help improve the overall contour of your chest. While exercise won't lift the breasts significantly, it can enhance muscle tone and support.

Radiofrequency and Ultrasound Therapy: Non-invasive treatments like radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound therapy can stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. These treatments may offer some temporary lifting effects, but multiple sessions are usually required, and results can vary.

Breast Lift Tape: Specially designed adhesive strips can temporarily lift and support the breasts, providing a non-surgical option for a more lifted appearance.

It's important to manage expectations with non-surgical options, as they will not provide the same results as a surgical breast lift. Consulting with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon can help you explore these options further and determine what might work best for your specific needs and goals.

Profound, a long pulse Radio frequency needle delivered energy has excellent results on the face and body for tightening skin. Typically used on the face, but also on butt,arms, and belly, it is also an excellent choice to tighten skin on the breast/chest area. Profound not only produces a lot of collagen, but up till now the only non-surgical procedure that actually produces large amounts of elastin which gives our skin the tightening of youth. The procedure only requires topical and local anesthetic, is pain free during and after with some bruising that resolves within 7-10 days. Doing the chest area which is larger than the face and neck requires someone experienced in diluting the local anesthetic to accommodate the larger area to be numbed. Plastic surgeons generally say there is no option, but Profound definitely lifts and tighten the skin on the chest and breasts significantly with no scars and actually increases the density of the skin with collagen and elastin thereby effectively making the skin biologically younger.

There are really no other good options for a breast lift than a surgical breast lift. Until you can get the procedure done, I would advise great breast support with bras. There are good financing options for these procedures. I would encourage you to ask your surgeons office about their financing options.
