Thank you for your question.  Unfortunately your photos appear far too close up to evaluate properly.  I would recommend evaluation by a board-certified plastic surgeon who is experienced in breast and body work to determine the appropriate surgical plan to return your body to its pre-baby state.  Tummy tuck, liposuction and mini tummy tuck are all potential options; as are breast augmentation both with and without lift.  
What are my options to lift my right breast to match the right one?
Correction of sag after breast augmentation
Aug 9, 2018
Thank you for your question and your photos.  Indeed you should not require a formal mastopexy (lift), with its associated scars, to correct your problem.  Symmetry could likely be achieved with a slightly smaller implant, coupled with some work to tighten the internal capsule around the implant, especially at its lower-most margin.  That said, your result is overall very good.  You could easily avoid a second operation altogether.
Am I eligible for a donut incision (or smaller)? I don’t want enormous scars.
Breast lift options
Aug 9, 2018
Thank you for your question and photos.  You do not appear to have a large degree of breast ptosis (sag), and in fact, your nipple position is quite appropriate.  The appearance of your breasts, including, to some degree, the position and direction of your nipples, would likely be improved significantly with placement of breast implants alone.  If any lift is indicated, you would not require a full vertical scar; a periareolar mastopexy would be a reasonable option.  Regarding your pie...
I have breast implants. I would like a breast lift. How much will it cost?
Breast lift
Aug 9, 2018
Thank you for your question.  A breast lift (mastopexy) will likely be an excellent option for restoring your breast shape following pregnancy and breastfeeding, especially in the presence of previously-placed breast implants.  Cost will vary depending on your geographic location.  In NY where I practice, expect to spend $10-15k.  Outside of major urban areas this number would likely be somewhat less.  Regardless of cost or location, please ensure that you are taken care of by a boar...
If I gain any weight after liposuction, will it look natural?
Weight gain after liposuction
Aug 9, 2018
Thank you for your question.  While it is always recommended to maintain a healthy lifestyle and avoid large amounts of weight gain following liposuction, on occasion weight gain is inevitable.  Your body will preferentially store fat in areas that were not treated with liposuction, potentially resulting in unfavorable and unbalanced overall body contour.  The degree of this is somewhat unpredictable and is dependent on the amount of liposuction that you underwent, as well as the amount of...
Liposuction caused deformity including severe hip dips. What are my options to fix this i
Correction of hip liposuction
Aug 9, 2018
Thank you for your question.  Over-resection can be a significant problem with liposuction, especially if performed by inexperienced hands.  Fortunately, your issue can likely be addressed and significantly improved with fat transfer.  If undertaken correctly and if appropriate post-op care is given, approximately 60-75% of the fat that is grafted to the area will remain permanently.  A surgeon experienced with this technique will anticipate this and overcorrect accordingly.  Don't desp...
Is liposuction a good option for removal of the banana roll?
Liposuction to banana rolls
Aug 9, 2018
Thank you for your question and photos.  Liposuction to this area can be very effective when performed by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon.  You'd likely be an excellent candidate, as you are young and healthy, not overweight, and have what appears to be good skin elasticity.  If limited to this area, the procedure could potentially be performed under local/tumescent anesthesia.  Cost will be somewhat variable depending on your geographic location.  Good luck!
Can my Breasts Be Lifted Without Implants?
Breast lift without implants
Jul 20, 2018
Thank you for your question, and for posting your photos.  As you appear to have a reasonable degree of breast tissue volume, a lift without breast implants would likely be a nice option for you - with the understanding that you may not achieve the degree of fullness of the upper pole of the breast that an implant would otherwise provide.  That said, the lift alone would reduce the size of the areola and raise its position on the chest wall, while producing an overall higher, rounder, more a...
Too Young for a Breast Lift?

Jul 20, 2018
Thank you for your question, and for submitting your photograph.  Contrary to what you may have been told by your doctor, the breasts are unlikely to "lift" on their own.  At 19, you are at or near full breast development.  You exhibit a fairly significant degree of ptosis (sag), which, in your case, is unrelated to pregnancy or breastfeeding.  A mastopexy (lift), with or without conservatively sized breast implants, would be a nice option to improve the overall shape and aesthetic of you...
Breast Lift Without Implants for Small Breasts?
Breast lift with small breasts
Jul 20, 2018
Thank you for your question, and for posting your photographs.  You would likely be a good candidate for vertical mastopexy, with the understanding that your breasts would indeed remain fairly small.  The use of breast implants would impart additional fullness to the upper pole of the breast; if this is not your priority, and excellent result can still be attained with breast lift alone.  The areola would decrease in size and sit higher on the chest wall, and the overall breast shape wo...
I'm Only 15 and my Breasts Are Already Saggy - What Can I Do?
Sagging breasts at 15
Jul 20, 2018
Thank you for your question.  At 15 you are likely not finished developing, and most plastic surgeons would choose to wait a few more years prior to pursuing a surgical solution.  That said, it is also somewhat difficult to gauge your situation without seeing you in consultation, or at least in photographs.  Conservatively sized breast implants might be a a reasonable solution (and will give a bit of lift without leaving you looking top-heavy); a mastopexy (breast lift) with or without th...
How Much Does Breast Lift and Breast Augmentation Cost?
Breast lift with augmentation
Jul 20, 2018
Thank you for your question.  Mastopexy (breast lift) with the concomitant placement of breast implants ("augmentation/mastopexy") is an excellent solution for the deflation and sagging that often results from pregnancy and breastfeeding.  In the hands of an experienced surgeon this can be a truly transformative operation.  It can be, however, quite challenging for even the best of us to get right.  I would recommend seeking out the best possible board certified plastic surgeon, who spec...
Advice for Sagging Breasts After Weight Loss?
Breast lift after weight loss
Jul 20, 2018
Thank you for your question, and congratulations on your weight loss!  Deflation of the breasts after losing a large amount of weight is extremely common.  As you've lost volume of breast tissue, the likely best solution for your problem is a combination of breast implants with a mastopexy (breast lift).  Combined, these two techniques will restore both volume and shape to the breast.  This is a fairly difficult, technical operation for even an experienced plastic surgeon.  To insure the o...
