Breast augmentation with breast lift surgery (mastopexy) can give women larger, rounder, perkier, and younger-looking breasts. Surgeons frequently recommend that women who want breast augmentation also have a breast lift to reposition their nipples, so they don’t point downward. Experienced plastic surgeons combine breast augmentation and mastopexy to reposition our patients’ nipples in a more youthful, central position. When a breast lift or breast tightening surgery alone isn’t enough to meet a woman’s aesthetic goals, an implant adds volume to the breast, particularly the upper pole.
What is breast augmentation with breast lift surgery?
Breast augmentation with a breast lift is a procedure that combines two procedures into one.
A breast lift surgery, also called mastopexy, is a procedure in which a plastic surgeon raises and reshapes the breasts’ skin and tissue to give them a more raised and round appearance. The breast enlarges with implants or breast augmentation by inserting silicone or saline implants into the breast.
The breasts are not only raised but also expanded in a combination treatment
Procedure for a breast augmentation with breast lift surgery
Treatment varies according to the size and shape of your breasts, the amount of lift required, and the implants used.
A complete medical history will gather before surgery. In addition, patient education will be provided, including the surgery’s dangers, what you should do or not do before and after the surgery, and when to call the doctor.
There are a variety of breast lift techniques available, but the one used will be determined by your physical assessment and surgical goals. In general, the technique entails the following steps:
- While you’re standing, the surgeon will assess and mark you to see how high the nipple lift on the breast.
- A general anaesthetic will administer to you.
- An incision will be made around the areola and down the front of the breast by the surgeon.
- The implant will be put after your breasts have been raised and sculpted.
- If necessary, your areolas will be adjusted to the proper place on your breasts.
- Then, stitches or surgical tape will be used to close the incisions.
The lift and implant are not always done simultaneously by all surgeons. This is because the combined procedure is all in danger with the areola and nipple and wound healing. To reduce danger, new procedures for combination surgery are being developed.
If two procedures are required, the lift is performed first, followed by the implants.
How to perform breast augmentation with breast lift surgery?
To remove extra skin, one incision around the areola (the pigmented circle enclosing the nipple) and one vertical incision from the low part of the areola to the breast base. This is referred to as a “lollipop” scar by some. Implants are often positioned under the pectoral chest muscle and are implanted through the same incisions. Implants can be silicone or saline, much like in traditional breast augmentation.
Because the skin envelope of the breast is modified at the same time as the breast volume, this is a relatively complicated procedure. As a result, it is associated with a higher rate of corrective surgery than either breast augmentation or breast lift (mastopexy) surgery alone, even though it can be a very satisfying procedure.
What you know about breast augmentation with breast lift surgery
- Anaesthesia: An augmentation-mastopexy is usually performed under general anaesthesia on the patient.
- Procedure time: 90 to 150 minutes.
- Recovery period: Patients can return to work after 7-14 days, but they should avoid intense activity for the next three weeks. Within two weeks, visible bruising should disappear, and swelling should start to reduce after three weeks.
- Side effects: Bruising and swelling are two of the most common side effects. The breast shape may alter over time, and the ultimate result may not be visible for several months. The combination of breast augmentation and mastopexy is linked to a higher rate of corrective surgery than either breast augmentation or breast lift surgery alone.
- Efficacy: This procedure is an efficient approach to lift and enlarge your breasts.
