I was told I borderline need a lift but since sending pictures to a dr, im feeling like im left with more questions than answers. Would love some opinions on what I should do ! I’ll get if lift if it’s totally necessary, but if I really don’t need one then I won’t bother . Please help !
Answer: Breast augmentation vs augmentation and lift Based on your photos alone, I do not think you need a breast lift at the same time as your breast augmentation. What I can't determine from your photos is the quality of your skin. Breast skin that is well equipped for a long-lasting breast augmentation result has thick, durable dermis (foundation layer of skin) that does not stretch easily. Skin with thick, durable dermis can support implants over years without significant increases in surface area that would allow the implant to drop, the nipple to drop, or both.

Answer: Lift or implant or both Hello, thank you for your question. It really depends on your expectations of how perky you want your breasts and how big of the implant. Mostly likely you will need a breast lift. Its difficult to say from photos speak to your plastic surgeon about your options. Be sure to bring in lots of wish pics. Feel free to check out our before and after gallery.

Answer: Do I need a lift? An in person evaluation is always best, but based on your photos it appears you would be able to achieve a nice result with implants alone. This would add volume and upper pole fullness. If you are wanting to raise the position of the nipple for added "perkiness" you will want to consider the lift.

Answer: Do I need a breast lift? You might not need one After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, if interested. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Mildly Sagging Breasts: If your breasts are mildly droopy, a saline or silicone gel implant placed behind the pectoral muscle might help create the illusion of perkiness. That’s because as the implant fills out the top of the breast, it also fills out the bottom, making it look as if the nipple has moved higher. It hasn’t. You can always get a lift later if you feel you are not perky enough when fully settled and healed. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.
