FAQ: Breast Lift with Implants
What is a breast lift with implants procedure?
A breast lift with implants is a combined cosmetic surgery procedure where a surgeon performs both a breast lift (mastopexy) and breast augmentation using implants. This procedure is designed to address both sagging breasts and a desire for increased breast size. It involves lifting the breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple and areola, while simultaneously enhancing their volume with implants. This results in a fuller, more youthful appearance.
Who is a good candidate for a breast lift with implants?
Women who have experienced significant breast sagging due to factors like aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or genetics, and also desire larger breasts, are ideal candidates.
What are the benefits of combining a breast lift and implants?
This combined approach offers a comprehensive solution by addressing both sagging and lack of volume in the breasts. The benefits include:
- Restored breast firmness and volume
- Improved breast symmetry and overall contour
- A more youthful and lifted appearance
- Enhanced self-confidence and body image
What does the surgical process involve?
The procedure generally begins with the placement of the breast implants. The surgeon will then proceed with the breast lift by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple and areola to achieve the desired shape and lift. The specific techniques used will vary based on individual anatomy and desired outcome.
What is the recovery time like after the procedure?
After the surgery, you can expect some discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which is normal. Recovery time varies, but most patients can gradually return to normal activities over several weeks. It’s important to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions carefully to ensure optimal healing and results.
