This 41-year-old developed drooping breasts following having children. She liked her size and did not want to be larger. She requested a lift, and did not mind incisions if her shape was good.
Left: Patient before surgery. Right: 6 weeks following surgical breast reshaping and lift. Our reshaping technique uses the patient’s own breast tissue to create an implant like appearance, without using actual breast implants.

Left: Patient preoperative view. Right: 2014, six weeks following surgical breast lift.
Same patient several years later, after further weight loss. The lift has not diminished. More volume is needed.
Left: Same patient before breast augmentation. Right: Six weeks after subpectoral augmentation with cohesive gel implants.
Left: 39 year old mom of 2 preoperatively. Right: 6 weeks after bilateral breast augmentation.
This patient has an excellent result as her nipples do not sit too low, and her skin envelope is not overly large.
Left: 35 year old mother of 4. Note large areolae that sit very low. Right: Patient 3 months after breast augmentation and PerkyLift. Skin tightening was needed because of the low nipples.
Good general guidelines for “lift” success with a breast augmentation alone include:
a. Nipples that are not too low. If there is no visible skin under the areola in the front view, you probably need more help than just a breast augmentation.
b. A skin envelope that is mildly to moderately large. Measurements will help to determine if skin excision is needed.
c. In cases where the skin envelope only needs about a 25% reduction, combining an RF Perkylift with a breast augmentation can give good results.
Left: 50 year old 36D wanted a lift, not smaller. Right: 6 weeks after breast reshaping. Breasts may look slightly smaller when extra skin is removed.
