how much cup size did you lose after a breast lift (not a reduction)?



Recommended Posts

How long after implants were you able to wear good bras?





What do you mean by good?

What cup size are 475cc?





Cup size is relative to band size so it depends. Plus you have to add whatever tissue you have left to that volume so it’s different for everyone.

I had some of my own tissue left, but I don’t know how many cc’s I had. My band size is 32. 350cc put me at 32DDD

Wondering this too! I'm getting a body lift first, but want a breast/arm lift after! I'm a 34DD now. I'd like to stay in the C/D range and dont' really want implants.

Yup cuz you roll it up and put it in the cups! I used to say I was a 32 "long" it was mostly tube socks rolled up and filling out my bra.

I feel like I’m following you with this. I’d like to be the same size as “now” (though “now” may still be in flux) but not saggy droopy bags of skin, but 32dd actual, up on the chest, boobs. My cleavage now is wrinkled like a prune. I think my first surgery will be the boobs and I am looking for SoCal surgeons who do the implants at the same time as the lift.

Right this second i am wearing 34DD and thrilled to get out of the ddd size so I can buy bras in a regular store. However, I measure under the boobs 31 inches, so I know I will end up at size 32, which is what I was years ago before the fat. I will always have the natural big booty, so even at goal weight (where I almost am) I can carry off the DD cup size.

I had a breast lift in 2012 (I worked for the plastic surgeon at the time) - I went from a DD to a D cup just from the lift procedure alone.

so 10 weeks post op and I'm still wearing the same bras I did before my lift, they just fit better. However, I am going to need a revision of the lift, so with a second lift I would imagine that it is probable I will lose another size.

Dr. J. Timothy Katzen in Beverly Hills is a great plastic surgeon whose practice is focused on WLS patients. He does excellent work and definitely would do lift and implants together.

I was told u just loose skin so u should lose cup size as long as u have Breast tissue. They separate the two tissues push your breast tissue up they never remove any of your breast tissue. Then they remove the skin. So it is all based on how much breast tissue u have

How long after weight loss should you wait before a breast lift? My WLS surgeon advises to wait a year in case the skin elasticity improves. I hate my breasts. I want to cry every time I look at them.

Most surgeons say 6-12 months once you reach goal. Basically they want your weight to stabilize and stay the same for 6-12 months. I had my surgery at almost exactly 6 months after hitting goal, which was 18 months after sleeve surgery.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
