Breast augmentation: I’m getting the SCM implant at 520cc

ORIGINAL POST

WORTH IT
I’m scheduled for a BA in April 2019 I’m getting the SCM implant at 485cc. My PS had said I don’t need a lift the implant should help. Anyone have similar nipple placement and it turned out okay with only a BA and no lift? Thanks!

Check out my pics. I love what was achieved being that I needed a lift also but I can slowly see why I should have gotten the lift. Overall very happy but I may in the future go back for the lift. Good luck.

Thank you!! It looks like we had a similar situation! I wanted to avoid the lift for now because when I do have children I want to breastfeed and I don’t want any surgery near my nipples until I’m done with children. I’m glad that yours look awesome gives me hope mine will be similar!

Dr said I needed a lift and my nipple placement weren’t very low, remember implants are heavy and will also weigh down. :) good luck!

I just had my consult today. Surgery scheduled for 1/31. I am a deflated 36D after nursing two babies, 5’4”, 145 which is above my goal weight! Surgeon said I do not need lift but chose 350cc mod plus profile silicone gel implants as this will provide a lift and correct the sagging. I’m anxious-don’t want to be too big but am trusting my surgeon! He said I may need a lift in the future but for now I’m good. Thanks for sharing your experience!

I am sort of in the same boat. I went to two consults and one said I should be fine without a lift but might need one later on while the other said I wouldn’t like the result without a lift and need one now. I’ve lost about 65lbs so they have deflated but were never big to begin with. I want to just get an augmentation but I’m nervous of the outcome because of the negative comments from the one doctor.

I also lost 60lbs which is why mine are deflated :( lol! But, I am going to get an Areola reduction along with my augmentation. This will help I think for now. I haven’t had children yet so getting a lift now I’m not sure makes sense since I’m borderline and it’s only because my nipples are a bit lower. It’s a confusing decision to make! Let me know what you decide :)

I am so anxious for my surgery! Having had a rhinoplasty before I’m not terrified but I still get anxious. I think I have decide since I was borderline lift - I will get an Areola reduction long with my implants.. thoughts?

I will eventually need a lift but I will wait for that. I may like the results I get without it. Fingers crossed.

I got a lift plus implants... the incisions itself doesn't hurt really at all, it's mostly the implants itself that stretches the muscle... only after like 10 days do you feel the incisions healing - nothing bad at all. :) I did both in one go to save money and time.
