Can I get implants after a lift with these scars? (Photos)

Question

I got a lift three years ago and had bad scarring. After losing 85 pounds and having a baby I lost more volume and still insecure with this indent from scarrin. Is it possible for a revision and implants to gain volume back and fix the indent?

Donovan Rosas, MD · Answer

Revisionary surgery while more complicated and challenging...remains an option.

I would suggest consideration of augmentation and revision mastopexy. Depending on the desired upsize, these can be staged or done simultaneously. The implant will restore volume while the mastopexy revision will address the scarring and shape.

As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Hello,Thank you for sharing your pictures. I can see that your scars have not healed well. There is noticeable volume loss in your breasts, along with glandular ptosis. To address these issues, I recommend a revision breast lift combined with breast augmentation.These procedures will allow us to revise the existing scars, correct the ptosis, and restore lost volume. While secondary surgeries can be slightly more complex, based on my professional experience, your goals are entirely achievable.

From the photos you would have a nice improvement with a revision to your lift, which would include revision of the scars that concern you.  An implant could be added as well.  This would give you more volume and upper pole fullness in addition to correcting the shape.  See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Hello. Yes, it is possible to improve both the volume and appearance of the scar with revision surgery. Placing implants can help you recover the volume lost after weight loss and pregnancy, and a good plastic surgeon can also correct the indentation (scarrina) and improve the appearance of existing scars. It is recommended to replace the implants as part of a complete revision to achieve a more harmonious and natural result. You can contact us at 829-554-6062 for a quote.

After weight loss, pregnancy, and a prior lift, it's understandable to have volume loss and visible scarring. I recommend a revision breast lift with an implant between 200–250 cc to restore fullness and improve contour. This size keeps results natural while minimizing strain on the skin.
