I am getting really nervous and anxious about my procedure in two weeks. Periareolar lifts with implants are so vastly different in each case vrs. Just a regular breast augmentation where you basically always know what you are getting and what to expect if you go to a respectable doctor. I know my surgeon is good, just nervous that it won't be enough lift for what I'm looking for. Spending my free time looking at breast lifts and worrying! Has anyone else had really good results from a benelli lift with implants?

I knew I wanted to go with Dr. Lazzaro the second I met him. He is a complete perfectionist. Not only is he brilliant, but he is down to earth and easy to explain things to. I was first all over the place and then very OCD about exactly what I wanted and he accommodated me every time I was questioning something and even called me on his day off to reassure me I had picked the right procedure for the look I wanted and didn't need to spend the additional money on something that wasn't needed (the full lift.) He had more than two consolulatations with me to explain the same things because I would get scared or nervous but he and his staff (Lisa) were wonderful. This goes without saying but as you can assume by my review already, the offices, surgery center and spa are extremely classy and impeccable. Compared to other people on here, not only are my results outstanding but my down time was non existent. Wouldn't even consider someone else if I ever need anything done again.

Thanks for sharing your journey with us. If you search "benelli lift", you'll find many reviews. Let me know if you need help.

I'm also getting a donut lift, and also nervous that it may not be enough of a lift. My PS said I do not require a more extensive lift, which was great because less scarring. I tried searching for cases involving a donut lift but couldn't really find many. Looking at your pics you look great and the lift looks perfect. At this point in your recovery are you still happy with the results? I've read many pros and cons to a donut lift, but the one thing stated if a good PS will know what to do and how to get best results. I feel I'm in great hands with my surgeon, but still nervous. Do you have any suggestions about questions to ask PS or things to be aware of with this type of procedure?

Hey! Yeah I know when I learned I needed the lift it was so difficult to find good before and after pictures! (even searching it on here) and it pretty much just stressed me out more because all the ones I saw didn't look too great. Before I went for my surgery I was so nervous! But I paid a lot for the best guy in my area and was confident in his work. I love it so far and am definitely happy I got it, I don't think it looks like any one I have seen on here. It seems like just getting the full lift is the easier option for most PS. I researched it extensively though and it seems to me if any part of your aerola hits the bottom of the front view then you need the full lift. My nippels were low and sagging, but still had about an inch of skin between the bottom of my aerola and where my boobs end. I hope I'm explaining it ok. If yours are pointing more down and no skin is in view at the bottom then I would maybe research aa full lift?

My breast are very similar to yours. My PS said that the pull or sag is happening more from the top down (collar bone to nipple), and the the nipple to breast end/fold sag is minimal (of course those are my words Lol! He was more specific and used medical terms haha!) he said there's not a lower sagging (he measured) so with that said the most appropriate lift would be the donut lift. Of course I was very happy hearing that (less scaring). But it's nerve racking reading different blogs, or just googling. Many people make statements about flattening of the areola and nipple, which of course scared me. My PS said a good skilled surgeon knows the right candidates to recommend this lift meaning they know what their doing. He said it takes specific skill and technique. I felt very comfortable with him and definitely knew what he was talking about and comes highly recommended (of course I researched the heck outa him). I'm scheduled for surgery December 7th.

Hello I am updating some more before pictures before my procedure that's scheduled for 6 am on September first. I wanted to really update everyone on this because either found it really really difficult to find girls with just the periareolar lift instead of the full lift. My PS said I should just do this lift instead of the more severe full lift because my sagging isn't as extreme as some needing the full lift but I am still worried it won't be enough lift for my liking but I trust my doctor. I hope my pictures give reference to anyone trying to decide which lift is right for you. I'm so nervous!

To give more reference i am 5'5 and I weight lift. I am about 135-140 depending on the day. I think I'm a B Cup maybe a small C depending on the bra. As you can see very deflated. I think bigger boobs would match my physique better.
