Wearing what I want!! Dropped very slightly in 5 years. Still a C cup. Love the option of not wearing a bra now!!! Yes- so happy I didn’t get implants!!!!!! Best doctor for this particular surgery hands down! I’ll try to post more pics soon.

Yes, please do post an update pic. Your 2017 breasts look literally perfect. I want an implantless lift and as you're aware, examples are difficult to find. I'm hoping for a crescent-lift as the scarring seems less intense, but that doesn't seem to be something commonly offered.

The will be able to get rid of more skin with a lollipop- and a good doctor like mine won’t leave you with scars. I have zero scars now. You can’t tell anything was done.

I meant anchor lift not lollipop.

Looks amazing!!! I'm jelly :)

Do you think you could post how the scars have progressed?

Thanks so much for sharing - very helpful! Your results are amazing and encouraging. I am doing the same surgery in a few weeks - lift only, anchor incision. How long did it take for the scar to fade to current state? And did you lose any feeling? Anything else I should mentally prepare for? Again, thanks for sharing!

Will you be doing it with Dr. Armando Soto? There’s been like no updates made to his account on breast lifts. So if you do do him can you post updates?

I just did exactly the same surgery 2 weeks ago. anchor. lift only. surgery went well. i personally was in pain for a while until basically today. not so much that i take pain meds but just really annoying pulling pains / a bit burning. i also got a galaflex mesh fitted so maybe thats why. good luck with your surgery!

Great result! Did your bra size stay the same?

Slightly smaller bc of skin but well worth it. 34 C to now either a 34 b or c depending on the bra.

I think you look great and you dont look done, if you know what I mean. I think when nipples are adjusted too much it doesn't look as authentic. looking fantastic hope you are enjoying the new you!

Yes, no implants!! I was a C cup and now a very slightly smaller C cup. It’s now been 5 years and they have only dropped very little. I can still wear clothes without a bra so it’s fabulous!!

Hello! I have a similar before picture and skin quality. I'm wondering how happy you are with the way your skin looks in the upper pole. It looks good in pictures, but it's so hard to tell. I'm hoping a breast lift alone will help tighten the skin, but the stretchy lines in my skin drive me crazy and actually bother me more than the sagging!

They are gone for me 99%. If yours are worse you may not be happy. Also the doctor choice is so important. Find someone who routinely does just lifts and has before and afters. Also if you are bigger than me naturally that skin might not look as good.
