Do I Need A Breast Lift With My Breast Augmentation?

Sometimes breast augmentation alone does not provide the results a patient is looking for. To help you achieve your long-term aesthetic goals, many plastic surgeons will combine a breast augmentation with a breast lift to achieve a more well-rounded look. Below, we will discuss why many people choose to get both procedures done at the same time.

What is breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation, or augmentation mammoplasty, or is a surgical procedure that aims to increase the size, shape, or fullness of the breast. The surgeon places silicone or saline breast implants under the chest muscles or breast tissue to create a fuller look. For breast augmentation in Orlando, Vado Plastic Surgery is currently running a rare, limited-time special on the procedure.

What is a breast lift?

A breast lift is an aesthetic procedure that moves the nipple and areola, lifts the breast and removes unwanted excess skin, resulting in a perkier breast. This procedure is great for those with sagging breasts due to large amounts of weight loss, having kids, or simply aging. A breast lift will work to tighten the skin around the breasts to reveal a more youthful look to your breasts.

Do I need a breast lift with my breast augmentation?

Combining a breast lift with breast augmentation is a great way to get the most from one surgery. Also, you may not need to add as much volume to the augmentation implant when you combine the two procedures since a breast lift will reposition the breasts and give them a more desirable shape. When these two procedures are performed in tandem, your breasts will increase in cup size but also appear more lifted. Simply lifting your breast does not improve the size of the breast, which is why many surgeons and patients will opt to combine a breast lift and a breast augmentation simultaneously.
