What is a
Breast Lift with Augmentation?

Pregnancy, weight loss and the aging process all leave their marks on the breasts. Many women experience stretched and thinning skin, sagging tissues and an overall loss of volume, particularly in the upper pole of the breasts.

Breast lift with augmentation, also known as augmentation mastopexy, is a combination procedure that lifts and tightens sagging tissues and skin while filling and enlarging the breasts with implants for a perkier, shapelier and more youthful appearance.

How is Breast Lift & Augmentation performed?

During your consultation, your board-certified PURE plastic surgeon will examine your needs to determine how much skin must be removed and discuss your implant options. Saline and silicone implants come in a range of sizes, shapes and profiles, and your surgeon will provide you with recommendations that will best fit your body frame and particular needs.

This procedure is performed under general anesthesia for your safety and comfort. Because these techniques are performed simultaneously, you will only require a single day in the operating room.

First, your surgeon will address the lift portion of your operation. While there are many different incision options available for breast lift surgery, most women benefit from a vertical (lollipop) lift or an anchor lift. Here, incisions circle the areola and continue vertically down the lower pole of the breast. In an anchor lift, an additional incision is made across the inframammary fold to allow for more significant tightening and crafting of the breast.

Following the lifting and securing of the tissues, your pre-determined implant will be placed through the breast lift incisions, and your incisions will be closed. Either removable or absorbable sutures are used.

Depending on the specifics of your procedure and the extent of correction, most breast lifts with augmentations take between one and three hours to perform.

How long is my
Breast Lift with Augmentation recovery?

Breast augmentation with lift surgery is an outpatient procedure and you can return home to begin your recovery within a few hours of your operation. You will require a friend or family member to drive you home and stay with you for the first 24 to 48 hours.

^{You can expec}t to feel sore and tired following your surgery. While breast enhancement recovery is often smoother than other body contouring procedures, you can expect up to six weeks of recovery with restrictions. Swelling, bruising and tenderness are all common, and over-the-counter or prescribed pain medications can help relieve any discomfort you experience. Strenuous physical activity and heavy lifting should be avoided until you are cleared to do so by your surgeon at PURE Plastic Surgery.

Bandages and compression garments will be worn over the breasts for several weeks, and you should avoid traditional bras, particularly those with underwires until you have fully healed.

You will gradually begin seeing results as soon as the bruising and swelling dissipate; however, it often takes several weeks or months for the final results to form. This is because breast implants take time to settle or “drop” into the correct position in the breast.
