Correcting sag by changing unders to overs?

[Vivacious Lace]

If someone has mild ptosis (needing crescent or benelli lift) with unders, would it be feasible to just move the implants over the muscle to correct it?

I know it wouldn't actually lift the breast, but if the sag was tolerable would this be a good way to at least correct double bubble/snoopy deformity and stave off the need for a lift?

Yes, I think it would help in that scenario, at least somewhat. It's more of a short term solution though as a lift is probably ideal.

Perhaps it would help, but isn't that more invasive than a lift?

I'm not sure you'll get ideal without a lift. If you have extra skin, even overs will drop over time--but you would likely avoid the double bubble I guess. Just might have more sag I'm thinking? Gravity will take advantage of the extra skin.

Can you go in for a consult? Would be interesting to hear the options....

I'm not really sure. I had always assumed that just changing the placement of the implants would at least not inherently change the breast shape or cause any additional scarring.

But from what I gather from all of your responses, it would be better to just get a lift when it becomes necessary so as to avoid more surgery down the line.
