I wanted to get 450cc silicone implants but my doctored recommended a mastopexy with 350cc implants. Is this necessary? My height is 5’5 Weight is 180 My breast size is C, I want to achieve a D or DD augmentation, my doctor wants me to get a mastopexy plus implants. I have saggy fullish breasts but I want to keep my saggy boobs… can’t I achieve my saggy big boobed look with just a breast augmentation and not the breast lift?? Or is a breast lift best for me? I really want my saggy boobs and not huge melons on top of my upper chest ☹️

Answer: Breast lift Hi, thank you for sharing your question. Based on this one image, you are a good candidate for breast augmentation with mastopexy. You seem to have a grade 2 ptosis which will be corrected with a lift.

Answer: Bellesoma Method Your breasts are low on the chest wall and the nipple-areola complex is pointing outward. Adding large implants will make your situation worse. 450 cc implants are large and weigh 1 lb each. Unfortunately, you have not told us your bra size. If you are size 32 or 34, each 100 cc implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. If you are size 36 or 38, each 200 cc implant corresponds to 1 cup size change. I recommend a breast lift using The Bellesoma Method. This will reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them 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. At the same time, fat transfers or small implants can be placed if additional volume is desired. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
