Will I need a breast lift? My doctor said that I was in the gray area and he thinks he could do good results without a breast lift. Also I’m thinking of getting 400-450cc wondering if that would make them sag more. Thank you.
Answer: Breast lift or not I agree with your doctor that you are in a grey area. That means that an in person consultation is of major importance in order to determine which procedure is suitable to you. The photos are of relative help. Depends what you want to obtain. Volume or shape? The volume of your breast looks very satisfactory. If you want more volume (I would not advise it) a breast lift with implant would be the solution if the nipple is under the inframammary fold. Implant only with dual plane technique if the nipple is over the inframammary fold. If the shape is your concern, breast lift with reduction to the lower pole and implant of 400 cc will be the solution. Please consider the fact to not do anything because on the photo your breast looks nice.

Answer: Breast Lift with Implant There does not appear to be a grey area and a breast lift would be in order. It would be important to combine the breast implant with your pre-existing breast volume to meet your goals. A breast implant alone would either sit too high or cause more sagging.

Answer: Will I need a breast lift? I'm thinking of getting 400-450cc Hello, thank you for your inquiry and photos. Based on your photo and with the implant size you are looking to have done a lift would need to be done as well in order to obtain good results. Adding the implants with time as well can drop lower, I would suggest seeking board certified plastic surgeons, best of luck!

Answer: Lift needed Your breasts are low on the chest wall. Simply adding 400-450cc implants will result in large low breasts and you will be dissatisfied. You need a lift and the technique I recommend is 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 or later, fat transfers can be performed if additional volume is desired. Implants are not lifetime devices. 8% fail within the first year and 30% fail within six years. Fat transfers are permanent and incorporated into the body.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Implant choice Thanks for your inquiry, I agree with your doctor that you can get a good result without a lift, but I would ask your surgeon about shortening the nipple to fold distance in the crease potentially to reduce drooping.
