If you’re concerned about sagging breasts but don’t necessarily want to increase your breast size, you may be wondering whether a breast lift alone could give you the results you’re hoping for. For many women, a breast lift without implants can successfully restore a more youthful, uplifted shape and help you feel more confident in your appearance.
What a Breast Lift Alone Can Accomplish
A breast lift (mastopexy) is designed to reposition the breasts higher on the chest, remove excess skin, and reshape the breast tissue to produce a firmer and more youthful breast contour. If you’re satisfied with your breast size but unhappy with sagging or loss of firmness, a lift without implants may be the perfect solution.
A breast lift can:
- Elevate the breasts to a higher, more youthful position
- Improve firmness and reshape the breasts for a more defined contour
- Reposition and resize the areolas for better proportion and balance
- Create a perkier, rejuvenated silhouette without increasing breast size
- Enhance your figure overall, making clothing fit more flattering for your body
Many women are pleasantly surprised by the dramatic yet natural-looking improvement a breast lift alone can create. Simply restoring a youthful breast position can bring balance back to the entire figure.
When to Consider Adding Implants
A breast lift can beautifully enhance breast shape and position, but it does not enhance fullness unless you choose to combine it with augmentation (breast implants). If you’ve experienced volume loss after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging — or if you desire a more noticeably fuller or rounder look — you may want to combine your lift with breast augmentation.
Adding breast implants to your breast lift can:
- Restore upper pole fullness (the volume at the top of the breast)
- Create a rounder, fuller, more voluptuous shape
- Enhance cleavage for a more dramatic result
In some cases — especially in the case of significant sagging — a breast lift without implants may appear to reduce breast size when in reality it is simply tightening and reshaping the breast tissue. If you are concerned that your breasts may appear smaller after breast lift surgery, it’s a good idea to raise your concerns to your plastic surgeon and discuss the possibility of getting a lift with implants.
