    Breast Augmentation Revision with  Full Lift Beverly Hills | Los Angeles

    Breast Augmentation Revision w/  Full Lift </br><span class="smh1">Beverly Hills</span>Breasts augmented with implants, like a woman’s natural breasts, may begin lose their original perky, firm augmented shape over time. These changes and loss of skin elasticity can result from pregnancy, breast feeding, weight fluctuations, aging, gravity and heredity.  A revision breast surgery can reverse these changes by using a combination of techniques that allows for the removal of excess breast skin, reshaping of the breast mound, replacement of breast implants and reduction in the size of the areola.

    A few points should be made in regards to having a combined revision breast augmentation and breast lift surgery. First of all, the breast lift procedure includes reducing the size of the areolas (the dark skin surrounding the nipple) which produces a much more youthful appearance of the breasts following the surgery.

    Secondly, even though the areolas are reduced and moved higher on the breast mound during the surgery, they remained attached to the breast throughout the entire surgery and they are NEVER removed at any time.  I often say that the “plumbing remains intact” since the areolas/nipples are never detached from the breast and the majority of the nerves and milk-ducts should therefore remain intact and functioning properly. This is important mentally, emotionally and physically since most women feel better knowing that their nipples are never detached from their body and they do not necessarily have to sacrifice sensation of their nipples or their future ability to breast feed after a breast lift procedure.

    Thirdly, some surgeons recommend breaking this type of combined surgery into two separate procedures which ends up being much more expensive and stressful on a woman’s body as well as time consuming for a patient that needs to schedule additional time off from work. Dr Motykie, therefore, prefers to do both surgeries at the same time because it allows the surgery to be more affordable for patients as well as allowing them to undergo only one anesthesia, one recovery process and one time period off from work.  Dr Motykie is very experienced in performing combined breast lift/revision augmentation procedures using both saline and silicone breast implants as well as being proficient in performing all the most current and effective breast lifting techniques.  Lastly, although women are often concerned with scarring following a breast lift procedure, the healing process has evolved rapidly due to modern scar prevention therapies that are now readily available which include topical scar creams, silicone sheeting and laser scar treatments that help scars fade away over time.

    CONSULTATION

    During your consultation, Dr Motykie will address your desire to combine removing and replacing your current breast implants with a breast lift procedure. He will also give you a clearer understanding of how a combination of these procedures may best be able to meet your own needs and expectations.  Dr Motykie will also give you an opportunity to ask him any question you may have about breast surgery as well as its possible benefits in your particular case. When going into your consultation, it is wise to come with questions written down and have a general understanding of the overall procedure so you can be prepared to learn as much as possible during your visit with Dr Motykie. Sometime during your consultation Dr Motykie may have you look through a “breast book” that contains numerous photographs of different types, shapes and sizes of breasts in order to help you determine what type of breast you personally find attractive as well as which type of breast implant and breast lift technique may best help you to achieve your desired outcome from surgery.

    You are also encouraged to bring in photographs you may have obtained on your own from magazines or various internet websites which show the desired “look” you would like to achieve from surgery. Dr Motykie has found that looking through these types of photographs as well as reviewing his personal breast surgery portfolio is much more helpful in determining the true breast size and shape you desire from surgery rather than techniques that employ stuffing bras with various filler materials, trying on misleading sizing implants or undergoing visual imaging techniques.  By the conclusion of your consultation, the possible options available to you for your breast surgery should be discussed and will typically include different types, shapes and sizes of breast implants as well as the various lifting techniques that are available in your particular case.
