Can breast lift without lollipop or anchor scars be achieved? (photos)

Plastic surgery scars require attention after surgery so that they remain cosmetically-appealing and barely noticeable. In our office, we use a protocol for scars that minimizes their activity in the 6-8 weeks after surgery. If you have late plastic surgery scars, you may also require laser and RF therapy to help reduce the longterm effects of the scarring. Keloids, hypertrophic scars, widened scars, red scars, and hyperpigmented scars all require scar modulation with topical creams followed by lasers and RF therapy. Topical skincare should be directed to a specific need, whether for pigmentation or hypertrophy and our office can guide you through the process to obtain the correct Plato’s Scar cream or Melarase cream for hypertrophy and discoloration. In terms of lasers, we would employ the vbeam laser for redness, Venus Viva RF, PRP microneedling, chemical peels, and Morpheus 8, fractional erbium, or fractional co2. All of these have their individual benefits. Most of all, we recommend you visit a solid plastic surgeon who understands surgical scar revision, laser therapy, and RF therapy for scars.

Dear LaGirl89,
My preferred lift is a lollipop lift when a periareolar won't do (ie greater than 2cm lift required). The lollipop technique was created by a Canadian plastic surgeon named Elizabeth Hall-Findley and treats the breast as a three dimensional structure instead of two dimensions (anchor - lift). Most importantly it does not require the horizontal component scars that the anchor-lift requires and breasts appear much more natural, lifted, and less boxy. Lastly, the lift lasts longer because the lollipop doesn't rely on the skin to hold the breast up, its actually breast tissue thats being brought together to support the breast and hence improves longevity. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

The technique I recommend is The Bellesoma Method.  This will reduce and reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness without implants, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage.  The weight of the breast is transferred to the underlying pectoralis major muscle resulting in pain relief and long term stability.  Vertical scars are avoided, nipple sensation (in 95%) and the ability to breast feed are maintained.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Dear LaGirl,
Based on your photos... you have a significant amount of excess skin and would require a moderate amount of scars to achieve an adequate lift.  A circumareolar (just around the nipple-aerola) scar is possible but probably won't give you enough lift from below.  Hope this helps and good luck!  

No, you have too much sagging and too much excess skin to have any lift except with the anchor or vertical incisions. The peri-areolar incision alone will not be of much benefit.

Hello dear!!
Thanks you for your question. It is my pleasure to help you with your concerns.
You can be your own best version, and you can definitely achieve amazing results with plastic surgery in order to improve your breasts. For you, I recommend an anchor incision breast lift, for perkier, youthful breasts. No implants are needed. 
I suggest you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon for a good evaluation and to talk about your goals.
I hope this is helpful.  Good luck :)

Hi and welcome to our forum!
From your photos, the distance from the top of your breast bone to
your nipples is increased. The distance from nipple to the fold at the bottom
of the breast also appears increased. 
I would recommend a full pattern lift as a vertical (lollipop)
lift will not remove vertical skin excess below the areola. No change
in breast volume will occur as no breast tissue is removed during the
procedure. However, following a lift, the breasts may appear smaller due to
the change in breast configuration and the removal of excess skin. 
The scars of a full lift usually heal well unless you are a thick scar former. Unfortunately there is no way to remove large segments of skin from the breasts and reposition the nipple areolar complexes without creating surgical scars.
Visit a board certified plastic surgeon for  in-person evaluation and discussion.
Best
wishes...

Hi, and thank you for the question
Based on the information and photos you sent us, you are a great candidate for a breast lift. This procedure could give you a excellent result.  It is good for you to know that all the datails about tenchique  can only be determined after careful meansurement of your anatomical landmark. As you can understand studies and test are needed to see if you are clear for surgery but in general, if you seek the attention of a certified plastic surgeon, you should have a great result and a normal life. So feel free to contact us for further evaluation.
Thank you again and have a great day
