Determining whether a breast lift or a prosthesis is more suitable for a person depends on a detailed examination of the appearance of the breasts, the amount of sagging, the available volume and the aesthetic expectations of the person. If the breasts have significant sagging, but their overall volume is suitable, breast lift will usually be a better choice.

But if there is a decrease in volume or lack of prominence in the breasts and there is no noticeable sagging; The use of breast prosthesis is recommended. In some cases, both factors, i.e. sagging and volume reduction, exist at the same time; Combined surgery (lift with prosthesis) can produce the best result.

A careful evaluation by a specialist plastic surgeon, usually with a clinical examination and examination of the underbust line and nipple location, will determine which method or combination of methods is most suitable for the individual.

Breast lift is suitable for you if:

• Your breasts are sagging, but they have enough volume.
• You don't want to increase the breast size.
• You are looking for natural shaping.

Breast prosthesis is suitable for you if:

• Your breasts are small or flat.
• You are looking to increase size and prominence.
• You don't have prolapse or it is very mild.

• The cost of breast lift (year 1404) is between 30 and 60 million tomans.
• The cost of breast prosthesis is usually between 40 and 80 million Tomans, which includes the price of the implant itself.

The durability of both methods depends on lifestyle, weight changes and subsequent pregnancies.

Breast lift is usually long-lasting and if the person maintains their weight and does not get pregnant, the results will last for years.

Breast prosthesis also lasts 10 to 15 years, but usually after this period it needs to be replaced or re-examined; Especially if you use old generation prostheses.

Actually, the lift may not need to be repaired in the long term, but the prosthesis is, in most cases, a reversible surgery and requires periodic maintenance.
