How to Decide If You Need a Breast Lift, Breast Implant, or Both?

The breasts, which may experience sagging after childbirth or excessive weight loss, are aesthetically important organs for women. While many patients have been referring to this subject only these recent years, more successful operations have been possible with the developing technology.

Breasts often lose their aesthetics, firmness, and dynamic shape over time. Ageing, gravity, weight loss, diet program, pregnancy, and breastfeeding affect the development of saggy breasts.

The patient’s preference and demand are essential for a successful breast lift surgery. If the breast has fallen to the level of the fold line, this is an indication of slight sagging. If the breast is below this line, there is severe sagging of the breast. On the other hand, especially the downward-facing nipples should be treated immediately. At the end of the operation, you will have your breasts upright and perfectly shaped again.

Before Breast Lift Surgery

You should have a thoracic examination before your surgery. Also, breast ultrasonography and mammography should be evaluated at full capacity. Based on the analysis, you can make your decision on the operation with your doctor. Besides that, nipple location test and mammary gland analysis are also necessary. The patient’s expectations are crucial while planning the procedure.

Are You Suitable for Breast Lift Surgery?

If you have saggy breasts, you are a perfect candidate for breast lift operation. Also, the nipples begin to grow over time. You can have a breast lift surgery to obtain an appearance of nipples proportional to the breasts, providing an aesthetic and elevated nipple profile. In general, you can be a good candidate for breast lifting if you fit the following criteria: 

  • You think your nipple is too low and not in the right position.
  • You are always comfortable with a gathering bra.
  • You think the tip of the nipple is down and not facing up.
  • You do not have severe medical conditions to prevent you from having aesthetic surgery.

A “pen test” is an excellent way to determine if you need a breast lift operation or not. Place a pencil under your breast. If the pencil stays in place, it is time you should consult a centre for the breast lift operation.

Is Breast Lift Surgery Sufficient for Perfect Breasts?

If you are satisfied with the size of your breasts, but you think they are saggy, breast lift surgery is the best option. If you are complaining of sagging of your breasts and you are comfortable with their size, solely breast lift surgery is sufficient for you.

Breast Implant Surgery

The breast implant is one of the plastic surgery operations that make women extremely satisfied. Women whose breasts are structurally small and asymmetrical due to birth or weight loss prefer this surgery. With this plastic surgery application, the fullness of the breasts can be increased, and symmetry and volume can be restored.

Breast Lift and Breast Implant in the Same Operation

Most of our patients complain about their breast size as well as their sagging breasts. In such cases, it is possible to have breast implantation and breast lift in the same operation.

Patients who are not satisfied with their breast size and have saggy breasts can undergo a breast lift operation for more aesthetic, firmer, and tighter breasts. Additionally, by doing a breast implant as well, the size of the breast is increased, and the shape is improved. Therefore, patients can get the perfect breast shape with a single operation.
