Breast lift Revision

Vanity Queen
WORTH IT$8,600
Is it worth it to do a revision to move them back tightened a centimeter and half or so with bottoming out ? I have just a small amount of bottom out but it bugs me where the nipples are now, they want to fall out of bra tops and just seem a little looser. We discussed tightening them 1 to 1.5 centimeters just across the bottom. No anchor line, just the underneath… Anyone done this and had good results ? How hard is recovery? It’s been nearly 5 years… Thank you!

The price isn’t bad, downtime seems not super bad and the bottom scar didnt bug me too much in fact is moved up as the boobs bottomed out a small amount. They would be tighter. Any thoughts or input of anyone whom has done this….

Waiting to go see the Dr. Today at 4pm. I did the surgery Tuesday at 11:30 . I did get a little bit tired yesterday as I didn’t sleep well the first night , I feel I overdid it here trying to take care of myself. Just resting today.

Thank you for share I have the same issues my lift is bottom out ! I’m going back to my revision 2022 I really want them smaller so I hope comes out better then now!

Maybe research auto augmentation. They use your own breast tissue to help create some upper pole fullness. The tissue is stitched inside so it doesn’t fall which gives longer lasting results. You can combine with fat transfer. I am scheduled for surgery in 2 weeks for this with fat transfer as I don’t want implants. Had to put weight on to be able to do the fat transfer but hoping it’s all going to be worth it!

They have “settled a bit but still so much nicer than they were. Barely visible scarring.
Sometimes still consider adding a small implant, not for size but he whole upper pole volume thing...However my view of them from my eyes is way better than they were.. They have complete normal sensation and fit great in clothes and swimwear. :)

Your healing as going well and they look so natural. It is good to hear you did not lose sensitivity and love the way your clothes fit. That is so important. Thanks for sharing your journey and let us know if you decide to get those small implants.

I wonder about the implant...what do you think? They did heal well and all is good. Maybe I should just be grateful ? ....but then again ....

I wish I had more information regarding implants. My experience is with the Mastopexy (Breast Lift /Reduction). I got rid of 6" inches on each breast (they were volumous and hanging low) and total of 5.5 pounds about 1-month ago.

I still have some swelling and nipple sensitivity is on Level 10+ since the surgery. The highest it has ever been ;-)

Thank you for this great review! You look amazing! I am going in for a slight reduction and lift with Dr. Shaw next week and this has put me at ease! I had so many people recommend him but it’s so great to see your process. I will try to pay it forward and do the same through my experience!

So did you end up back to your regular size after you settled? Beautiful results. ❤️

I basically wear the same bra size a 34d but they are much nicer and no fat or skin “spills” out like they did so I am think they are slightly smaller but way more youthful and perky. I love my nipples now that they are up. :)

Si your size from before and after didn't change ? They look so beautiful after :)

You look great! I’ve heard Dr. Shaw is the best with implants, but it looks like his lifts are wonderful too! Congrats and keep us updated! :)

I had my breast reduction, that was also on 4th August but in Malta. I'm 65 and used to be a dance teacher. My boobs grew bigger after each of my 3 children were weaned. I've gone from looking like a dumpy short old lady to a sporty spice. It was well worth the wait for them to heal. Very happy
