Hi, hard to say without a consultation so advice will be taken lightly but appreciated. Goal: Avoid scaring as much as possible. Fuller/perkier all over. Not have to wear a bra. 34DD/E natural looking. 25yr old, F, no kids, UK10, 5ft6. 34D before weight gain, full but a little low. 36F + After weight gain in 2018-20 Now a deflated 34C/D after 5 stone weight loss. Would a lift be required as well as Implants? What incision/scaring would I likely have? TIA
Answer: Consider Staging It Your question is a common concern. The goal is to make you feel optimally proud of your breasts, and if breast lift scars compromise that, you can always opt for a breast augmentation initially and express your goal of getting the most out of a breast augmentation without a lift. If you after the breast augmentation you decide you're happy, then great. If after you have healed, you think to yourself that you would still like a lift, then it is worth exploring again. Most people would rather do them at the same time than as two separate surgeries, so you have to weigh out the pros and cons and make that decision for yourself. Here is a link of someone who had similar concerns that we only did a breast augmentation on.

Answer: You may consider breast implants only but implants & mastopexy will give the best result You may consider only augmentation with an implant through an inframammary incision, but satisfaction may decrease as the sagging shape will remain.To create a better shape, it is recommended to simultaneously perform peri-areolar mastopexy, augmentation with implant, and fat grafting in the wide intermammary span area. Peri-areolar mastopexy is a method to remove donut-shaped skin around the areola, leaving a circular scar around the areola after surgery. When performing both implant surgery and mastopexy at the same time, breast augmentation implant surgery is performed through a separate inframammary incision to reduce the possibility of infection and capsular contracture.

Answer: Will breast implants be enough or is an uplift and implants required? Based on your photos- it appears that you have significant sag. In order to achieve perkiness- a lift would be needed with smaller implants, All the details would be discussed thoroughly at your consultation. I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS

Answer: Implants For your best results, you need a lift with implants. You could get by with just implants, but you will need a lift at some point. If you plan to have children, you could wait until you have ad your last child.

Answer: Long lasting results with a lift. Hello, thank you for your question and photos. It is better to have both lifting and augmentation in your case for long term satisfaction. Implants will give you more volume but your skin still be loose and will continue to look so even after implants are placed. A better evaluation can be made in person. I’d advise you have a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.

Answer: Lift recommended Your nipples are located below your breast fold therefore a breast lift is recommended. This can be performed at the same time as your breast augmentation.
