What is Breast lift? Why is it performed?

Round, perky breasts symbolize a youthful appearance that may lose its effect over time, as pregnancies, weight change, aging, and gravity can all take a toll on your breast appearance. A breast lift surgery or mastopexy addresses sagging, drooping breasts by removing excess skin and reshaping the breasts to restore a youthful look and volume. Reshaping the nipple and areola higher on the chest wall is also included in the lift procedure, which helps achieve a youthful breast profile.

What is Breast augmentation, and how does it create more volume in your breasts?

If you are unhappy with the volume of your breasts and want to increase the cup size to improve the shape and size of your breasts, breast augmentation surgery may be the answer. Breast augmentation surgery increases the size and symmetry of your breasts by placing the implants composed of either saline or silicone. Different implant sizes, shapes, and textures are available, as well as different thicknesses of silicone filling. Your board-certified plastic surgeon will recommend the specific type of implants based on your candidacy and healthcare needs.

Breast augmentation and fat-graft mammoplasty enhance the size of breasts by adding volume and changing the texture of the breasts. The fat transfer could be a better option when you are interested in a small increase in breast volume based on your problem status and anatomical and physiological profile.

Dr. Karishma can help you determine the right breast volume according to your frame and aesthetic goals to meet the desired natural outcomes.

When is the case of conjugation of both mastopexy/ breast lift and breast augmentation?

The only volume loss is not the case when discussing breasts’ rejuvenation. Sometimes breast augmentation/ implants alone are insufficient to rejuvenate your breasts’ profile if sagging breasts are your concern. Sagging breasts become a case as pregnancies, weight change, gravity, and aging can affect your breasts’ appearance and cause them to droop, sag, and lose their round, perky shape. However, breast lift surgery is recommended. In some cases, when a patient requires both volume enhancement and addressing droopy breasts, breast augmentation is performed in conjugation with a breast lift surgery. Thus, breast augmentation focuses on your breasts’ size and shape, while breast lifts focus on breast position.

Note: If you have smaller breasts, you are still vulnerable to losing the elevation and lift. Thus, the combined breast lift and augmentation procedure helps improve the youthful breasts’ profile, and you will have more volume and a more natural-looking breast contour.

When a breast augmentation is combined with a breast lift, it is called an augmentation/pexy. Thus, the goal of volume enhancement/ breast fullness as well as repositioning breasts and nipples can be met effectively with a more natural effect.
