When Breast Augmentation Alone May Be Enough
Breast augmentation with implants is ideal for women who want to increase volume, improve symmetry, or restore fullness lost with age or pregnancy. If your nipples sit above your breast crease and your skin has good elasticity, implants alone can often create a fuller, lifted appearance without the need for a surgical lift.
You may be a good candidate for augmentation only if:
- Your breasts are mostly in the right position
- You have minimal to no sagging (ptosis)
- You want more volume or projection without a change in nipple position
When a Lift Might Be Needed Too
If your breasts have moderate to significant sagging—especially if your nipples point downward or fall below the breast crease—a breast lift (mastopexy) may be recommended in addition to augmentation.
A lift removes excess skin, reshapes the breast tissue, and repositions the nipples higher on the chest. When paired with implants, it adds both volume and a youthful, perkier contour.
How Dr. Kunkel Helps You Decide
During your consultation, Dr. Kunkel will assess your breast position, skin quality, and goals. He’ll explain your options clearly, including whether implants alone will meet your expectations or if a lift is the better path to achieve balance and proportion.
