Hello, I have an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon, but it isn't for another 8 months. I'm actually 7 months pregnant now but I would like to get a breast augmentation in about a years time. I had a lot of difficulty breastfeeding my first child two years ago. Although I went to two lactation consultants, no one ever told me I might have tuberous breasts, but I think that might be the problem! Would you also recommend looking into getting a lift done when I get the procedure?

Answer: Breast shape Thank you for your question.It would be better to do an in person evaluation, to determine exactly what you need. Especially since the photos of your breast are at 7 months pregnant. As you know they will continue to change significantly over the next months. It does appear you do have some laxity to the breast, so your surgeon will more than likely suggest a breast lift and augmentation. Good luck with your pregnancy and future surgery.

Answer: Breast augmentation, lift Hi,It is always best to wait 6 months after you stop breastfeeding to assess what you may need. However, from what I can see in the photos, you will likely benefit from a breast augmentation with a lift. The implant will replace the volume/size you will lose after you stop breastfeeding and the "lift" will raise the position of your nipple and tighten your breast skin. It is a procedure I often perform as part of a "mommy makeover." I recommend seeing a board-certified plastic surgeon before making any decisions. Best of luck.
