Female, 26y, 5’8”, 130lbs, oily + semi-sensitive skin. I have lower breast sagging, my nipples could be 1-2 inches higher, full bottom breast with no upper volume. I am interested in lifting my breasts about 1-2 inches. The fullness in my upper breasts are not my biggest priority. Please give me your recommendations! I am open to suggestion. Thank you in advance.
Answer: Best breast lift procedure to correct size/shape difference Hello, for patients who have a difference in breast size, including more tissue on the lower breast on one side. I often find that the anchor scar (Wise pattern) lift provides the best improvement in symmetry. This type of lift allows me to take more tissue from the lower part of the larger breast, which is difficult to achieve if a procedure with less scarring is used (like the donut lift (periareolar mastopexy) or the lollipop lift (vertical mastopexy)).

Answer: Breast Lift and Your Ptosis Thank you for your question. Based on your pictures, what type of breast or mastopexy do you need, and what kind of ptosis do you have? Based on your pictures your nipple-areola complex is above your infamammory fold. Therefore you have pseudo ptosis. Pseudo ptosis usually can be fixed by straight augmentation, mentioning that upper pull fullness is not a priority.

Answer: What type of breast lift procedure would be best suited for me and what type of ptosis do I have? In person exam is essential. Based on limited photos- it appears that you would benefit from Mastopexy/ breast lift with slight reduction on the larger side. I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS

Answer: What type of breast lift procedure would be best suited for me and what type of ptosis do I have? Hello @Courageous350663, thank you for your question. In my opinion a periaerolar lift (breast pexy) to improve the shape of the breast and reposition the nipples according to the new shape would be the best procedure. The scar would be around the nipple for minimal scarring. To obtain more information and recommendations, it is best to consult one or more board-certified plastic surgeons. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Type of breast lift Hello, thank you for your question. The anchor incision often gives more of a lift. We do try to avoid giving you additional scars if possible. Its difficult to say what type of lift you in particular will need without performing a physical examination and taking some measurements of your anatomy. I would go to your local plastic surgical office for a consultation. Bring in wish pics to communicate what you like.
