Breast Lift Before & After Case 12045

This 52 year-old woman had originally had subglandular saline implants placed via the umbilicus (belly button) as part of a "TUBA" breast augmentation, and 4 years prior to this case 450cc smooth high-profile gel implants were placed into the subglandular position. She disliked the "edges" showing everywhere (especially in the upper pole areas), and wished to downsize at least a cup size. Dr. Steinwald recommended a pocket exchange to the submuscular space with a lift (since they were likely to sit higher), and this was indeed performed, with 280cc lower-profile but highly cohesive Allergan implants placed. She was very pleased with the "softer" look; photos here are from approximately 6 weeks post-op.
