breast lift

i'd like to get a breast lift. i don't want implants, i'm a dd already. i don't want a reduction, i like them the size that they are. but i'm not happy with gravity. i'm only 30 and only have one child but i look saggy. i was wondering if anyone here had this done and how they do it. how much does it cost, and what's the pain/recovery like. do you still wear a bra? any side effects?

Here's a page that links to galleries of before and after photos.

My breasts are horrible, like cow udders :-P , but I doubt I'd get a lift for them-- they move the nipples. . . which seems a little weird to me. . . They just like cut them out and stitch them on higher?

your nipples are replaced after a breast lift

Hi niki, if you get a breast uplift you still loose some of your breast tissue it may even reduce you to a C cup. Which area are you from?

yes you will lose a full cup size with a lift and you will not regain
fullness in the upper part of the breast. There is a scar around
the nipple and down under the breast, they cut a piece of skin
out around the nipple. It's very safe. Some doctors try to get you
to put in an implant to fill up the sag but it doesn't work. The lift
is always necessary if you want them higher.

There is a great forum just for breast augmentations

it's in Canada but it's very busy and answers many questions. I
originally wanted a lift for my saggy d's but realized that I would
be a B, since in my case I will lose two cup sizes. I went to a
surgeon and when I have enough $ I will go back for the saline
round implants at a full C, and the lift. Together that is $11K, so
I will be waiting on that.

Good Luck!
