Augmentation Without Lift - Philadelphia, PA

Well, went for my first consultation today. I was told I can not have the result I want without a lift. My goal is to look good naked and with all the scars that come with the lift, I just don't think I am ready for it.
Ugh..Not sure if I should continue consulting other doctors or just give up.
The doctor I went to today didn't have the best reviews but it wss the closest to home and easier for my busy schedule.
I'm wondering if anybody has ugly boobs like mine and had good results with just augmentation.
I'm 5'10, around 150lbs. Gained and lost 85 lbs during pregnancy and my breast went up to sizes I didn't even know exist. They went back ( along with my weight) to prepregnacy size. Nothing is the same anymore though, even after 3 years.
I guess push bras would do for now..grrr

So I have struggled with this same problem. I was told I need a lift on only one of my breasts. I don't want to do it though because of the scars, the increased chance of revisions cause it tightens the skin and it increases the chance you can loose feeling in the nipples. I have looked at a lot of pictures where breasts are way saggier and they don't get a lift and they look great after. You can always get the lift later down the road even though it will cost a little more but who knows you might not need it. I am obviously not a doctor but look at other pics where women's boobs are a lot saggier then yours (not saying yours look saggy) and after just implants alone they look awesome. Plus I think when they are not so perky before they look more natural after the surgery. You should also remember your surgeon is trying to get you his idea of picture perfect boobs. Good luck :)
Haha thanks girl, but yes they look saggy..and I'm fine with it. I just want them better. But I guess I don't want them bad enough yet, to deal with the scars.
He is only saying that because you already have nice size boobs. Get a second opinion because women have really saggy boobs and get away with it without a lift! I'm in a similar situation as you good luck :)
Thank you for your comment. Yea I think I might keep looking and see other doctors. I know my boobs are not in good shape, but I've seen pics of other women with saggy puppies like mine that had good results without lift. But again...it's the internet..
If you don't want a lift then don't get talked into one (like I did), you will regret and your boobs will never be the same. Some girls have great results with lifts but others don't and docs act like oh well some people scar better than others- hello you have to like this the rest of ur life. Get aug now and lift later if you don't like look after aug only
I was told I would need a lift by one doctor, but ended up not getting one and I love my results. I need to post an updated picture!
You don't not have ugly boobs! They look perfect to me.
