Do you know what they would do differently if you wanted an uplift as well? If they remove mass and skin and reposition the nipples higher during a reduction, I don’t understand what they would do for the additional uplift part?No, the breast reduction will be sufficient. Unless you put on a significant amount of weight, they are unlikely to drop but they will settle once the swelling goes down but not droop, they become more of a natural tear drop shape.
I suppose if you are happy with the actual size of your boobs but needed them lifting, you may need implants but with a reduction, they couldn't just take fat away from say underneath the nipple, it has to come from all of the breast and therefore your nipple is repositioned higher up, in the centre of the boob. Most larger breasted ladies, the boobs droop and therefore your nipple is sitting much lower, in some case pointing south. Therefore once the excess fat has been removed, your nipple is then sewn back on to sit more naturally in the centre therefore giving a prettier boob, more uplifted look.Do you know what they would do differently if you wanted an uplift as well?

Sorry if I’m being stupid, it’s lateCan completely see what you mean in terms of a reduction resulting in an uplifted look so confused about what the surgeon would do differently if you wanted both...
No I totally understand what you mean! Just seems like a con if a surgeon offers both procedures when a reduction seems to achieve the results of an uplift anyway, as you explained... for some reason I was thinking I needed bothI suppose if you are happy with the actual size of your boobs but needed them lifting, you may need implants but with a reduction, they couldn't just take fat away from say underneath the nipple, it has to come from all of the breast and therefore your nipple is repositioned higher up, in the centre of the boob.

Sorry, I probably aren't making much sense but in my head I know what I mean, I just aren't explaining myself very well!
Good luck! Yes please do let me know how you get on, I have my consultation next week! Is yours in person? Mine is virtual xHi guys! Bumping this up as I have an appointment with a consultation tonight for a breast lift. I had WLS in 2018, lost 8.5 stone and honestly, my breasts touch my waist line! Even when I was bigger I hated my boobs and considered a reduction but now I think a lift will do the job.
Anyway, I’m nervous! But will report back with how it goes!
Mine is virtual too! Just sat waiting for them to let me into the meeting, feeling very shakey!xGood luck! Yes please do let me know how you get on, I have my consultation next week! Is yours in person? Mine is virtual x
Good luck! You’ll feel much better knowing it’s getting sortedMine is virtual too! Just sat waiting for them to let me into the meeting, feeling very shakey!x
Excellent so happy to hear that! I will report back next week after I have my consultation. I suspect if I want to go ahead after that it will be a face to face appointment.It went really well! He was really kind and reassuring! My wls surgeon was nice but a little odd but this guy was very well spoken and very factual. I’m going to book a face to face consultation with him and go from there! Thank you for the good lucks
I’ve not had my consultation yet but my expectation is around 6-7k from things I’ve seen online.Would anyone be able to share insight on how much a lift costs on average in the UK/London? It's hard to tell on websites without actually booking a consultation and I obviously don't want to just book a consultation with the first surgeon I come across without researching several, I would just like to know a realistic number to plan out my savings and a realistic time frame when I can seriously consider having it done, I have around £7k saved currently
Wow! That’s so incredible. Thank you for sharing your story! Do you mind sharing the clinic you went to? £2200 is actually very affordable compared to the UKHi everyone. I had a reduction and lift about 2 years ago in Lithuania - best thing ever. I was on the NHS list but it was taking forever to get done so I looked on a few forums and found the clinic I used. Cost me £2200 which is 1/3 of the UK cost.
I was a 34FF and have gone down to a dd. The recovery was so much easier then I thought it would be. I was back at work 10 days later (desk job) and had no problems with any infections - healed like a dream.
My nipples are so small nowand I have full feeling in them too. I can now wear shirts which is amazing. But I didn't realise how much they hid my mum tum, now they're not detracting attention its much more noticeable. Mentally it takes a while to get used to it, I still buy booby style clothes then realise I cant fill them as much
It really was the best thing I have ever done. I cant even remember my big, hanging sacks anymore! X
It was Nordsthetics - they have a really good FB page which shows peoples results and people share their experiences. Even if you decided to go elsewhere its still a really informative group, I'm always nosing on itWow! That’s so incredible. Thank you for sharing your story!

I know there’s a risk, hoping it will be a good deterrent from the biscuits for me if I do go aheadNo personal experience as I’m basically flat as a pancakejust wanted to say that both my cousin & MIL had this done and had no problems at all until they put on weight and it all went onto there boobs. Not to put you off it’s just that they are both now bigger than ever!
