Breast augmentation-mastopexy, which is also called breast lift with implants is a combined plastic surgery procedure that restores or increases the breast shape and size by using silicone or saline implants combined with a breast lift. 

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Gary Motykie provides breast augmentation combined with breast lift to patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles, and surrounding locations.

Suitable Candidates for Breast Lift with Implants

These are a few common reasons why people consider breast lift with implants plastic surgery:

• Your breasts don’t have the same type of firmness, shape, and volume because of weight loss, age, gravity, and pregnancy
• Your breasts are noticeably different in shape and size
• You want fuller breasts
• Your nipples or areolas point downwards or are positioned below the crease
• Your breasts appear deflated

You are probably an ideal candidate for a breast augmentation with lift if you are in decent overall health. You should have maintained realistic goals and expectations and have a steady body weight. 

Rejuvenate Your Figure with Breast Lift and Implants

Breast implants cannot correct excessively sagging tissues and skin even though they can add fullness and size to the breasts. Breast lift can reshape the breasts and add a more youthful appearance by elevating the breasts. Stemming from this, the procedure cannot increase breast volume. 

You can achieve a lot of benefits by combining the two cosmetic surgery procedures:

• Increase in breast volume and size
• Rejuvenated breast position on the chest wall
• Improved breast symmetry
• Enhanced breast projection and overall shape
• Youthful looking and firmer breasts

Procedure for Breast Augmentation-Mastopexy

Breast lift with augmentation can be performed in two separate stages or in combination depending on the size of your desired implants and individual needs. An incision will be made along the outer edge of the areola, all the way down to the fold under the breasts if conducted simultaneously. The incision may be extended horizontally along the breast crease if there is significant sagging. 

Extra, drooping skin is excised and the breast tissues lifted once the incision is made. The nipple-areola complex may also be raised and resized if required at this time. The selected breast implants will be inserted using the same incision and placed carefully in the submuscular, subglandular, and dual plane position.

Surgeons usually place the implants in the dual plane position. This is partly submuscular and partly subglandular. Moreover, few individuals may be better candidates for submuscular or subglandular placement based on a wide array of factors. 

The surgeon will pull the skin tight and reattach it beneath the breasts using small-sized sutures once the implants are situated properly. They will make sure optimal breast symmetry and shape is achieved as well. Breast augmentation-mastopexy is usually performed on an outpatient basis. The entire procedure can be completed in just 2 to 3 hours. 

Recovering from Breast Lift with Augmentation

Most individuals can resume non-strenuous routines in 5 to 7 days. However, your surgeon may ask you to avoid physically demanding work for 4 to 6 weeks.
