I have size 36DDD breasts which have become saggy after having four children. I would like to have a breast lift, but I love my breast size and I’m concerned that I would lose size or volume by getting a lift. Does this happen? Also, I have pierced nipples – can the surgeon work with this or would I have to get re-pierced after surgery?

I am considering a breast lift and tummy tuck. I have fibrocystic breasts that cause me quite a bit of discomfort all the time, but even more so around the time of my periods. I was wondering if during the lift and tuck, it would be possible to take out the lumps in the breasts and replace the lost tissue with the fat from my abdomen. I am a 40DD at the moment but would be happy with a full D. I would rather not get implants.

I have full D cup breasts that I would like to have lifted using implants. Is there a procedure in which I could get liposuction of the breasts prior to getting implants so there would not be an increase in the size of my breasts? I would like to have the firmness and the lift that implants provide without a size increase. Is this possible?

I have had consultations with four board certified plastic surgeons concerning a breast lift. All have told me that with the lift I would probably lose a cup size which I do not desire. Only two would do an implant in conjunction with the lift. The other two said they do not do the implant at the same time. Since I am two for two what would be the best decision. At 48 years old I really don’t want to go through two surgeries, but do not want to jeopardize my well-being either.

I had a breast lift and augmentation six months ago. The implants were placed submuscular, but I think they have moved far to the outsides of my breasts. Is it too late to keep my breasts wrapped so the muscle heals together under my arms?

I am 44 years old. One year ago I had breast uplift (mastopexy, lollipop incision) with saline breast implants inserted under the muscle. I find the implants too large and heavy for my small frame. What are my options at this point to reduce them and will my breasts sag again if I do so? With this being the second time around for this procedure, what are the risks and recovery time?

I had a breast lift just over a week ago, and was wondering if it is normal for one breast to be healing much faster than the other? One side is still swollen and "higher" than the other. My surgeon says it will come down, and that this is normal in the healing process. Is this true?

My breasts are very saggy and I am considering getting a breast lift with augmentation. My doctor told me that he would need to perform two different procedures (due to my having too much skin) - first the breast lift and then go back four months later for the implants. Couldn’t an experienced plastic surgeon do everything at once?

My breasts are lightly sagging. Is there any procedure to firm them up without the breast lift technique – maybe by having augmentation with small implants that will not alter my natural size too much?

I am in need of breast implant removal and a lift. The implants suggested by my doctor were too big and now I am suffering from scar tissue and a hardened implant for the past five years. I find that I cannot afford all that would need to be done – implant removal, smaller implant replaced, and a lift. Please advise as to where I can get financial help for this and would some of the cost be covered by insurance?

I am only 4 feet 11 inches tall and my breasts are a size 36C. They hang very low from having two children. What would be best for me, a breast lift or a breast reduction?

I had a mastoplexy when my breasts were considerably large (34F). Two years later, I still have my fullness and the shape is fine, however, I would like more fullness at the top of the breast for cleavage. Most doctors see the large breast and discourage enhancement surgery, but this is a very bothersome part of me. Are there breast enhancers that are inserted on the top of the breast for a rounder look to a naturally large breast?

I am a 37-year-old female and have always had large breasts. My pre-pregnancy size was 38D. Since my pregnancy, my breasts are very saggy and are getting more so as I lose weight. Right now I am a size 38DD. I was wondering whether a breast lift or a breast reduction would be more appropriate in my situation. I have 11 month-old twins at home, so I would like to minimize recovery time if possible.

I have extensive stretch marks on my breasts, thighs, hips, and stomach, which I have had for over 20 years. Is there anything that can be done to remove or reduce the appearance of stretch marks?

How much risk comes with getting a breast lift? How much scarring is expected? I know that every time an incision is made, scarring will form.

I am considering having a breast lift, and have been for several years. I would like to know how long before such a surgery I would have to quit smoking?

I wonder what can be done about some stretch marks on my breasts? They aren't severe, but they're noticeable and they're on the sides and a bit on the front of my breasts (40 year old, 38DD). Would having stretch marks make results of a breast lift look odd?

I have been overweight for most of my life. I am now beginning to lose weight, but I am not happy with my sagging breasts. Should I wait until I reach my goal for weight loss or have the surgery sooner? I will reach my goal in about 10 months.

I want to get a breast lift, but I don’t like all of the scarring. I am a 36B and want to stay that size, but my breasts need to be lifted. Is there a variation in the procedure? I believe it’s called endoscopy.
