A lot of women are not happy with the appearance of their breasts. If this applies to you, you may be wondering whether you’re able to have a breast lift and breast augmentation at the same time. We carry out both procedures here at WMIPS, and a lot of our patients opt to combine them.
Breast Augmentation with Lift
Before & After Photos
*Keep in mind that each patient is unique and your results may vary.
Breast Augmentation Overview
Breast augmentation has long been one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries available. This involves the use of breast implants to improve the size of your breasts. Restoring breast volume, this can help you to achieve a rounder bust and natural breast size asymmetry.
The motivation for getting this treatment can differ from woman to woman. For some females, they simply want to have a bigger bust. For others, they may want their breasts to be even in size.
Breast Lift Overview
Another popular type of treatment is a breast lift, which is also known as a mastopexy. This is a surgical procedure that will alter the shape of your breasts. During this treatment, excess skin is removed and the surgeon will reshape the breast tissue to raise your breasts.
A lot of women choose this procedure if their nipples point downward or their breasts have started to sag, which tends to be associated with aging but can happen to any female. This treatment can help you to regain your self-confidence, yet it does not change the size of your breast, as a breast lift does. This is why a lot of women want to combine breast augmentation with a lift.
