What Is a Breast Lift with Implants?
A breast lift with implants, also known as an augmentation mastopexy, is a combination surgical procedure. It involves a breast lift to remove excess skin and elevate the breasts to a more youthful position, along with the placement of breast implants to restore or add volume and improve overall shape. This procedure provides a comprehensive rejuvenation for breasts affected by aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations.
Our Patient Results
The following gallery showcases real patient results from the breast lift with implants procedure. These images demonstrate the type of balanced and natural-looking outcomes our surgeons strive to achieve. Please note that individual results will vary based on each patient’s unique anatomy and surgical plan.
Understanding Your Combined Procedure
A Comprehensive Breast Rejuvenation
This procedure is designed as an all-in-one solution for patients who desire both a lift and enhanced volume. By combining these two techniques, our surgeons can correct drooping, reshape the breast mound, and improve overall proportions in a single operation. This approach is highly effective for comprehensive breast contouring.
Customizing Your Breast Implants
A key part of the process is selecting the right implants to achieve your desired look. During your consultation, we will discuss options for implant type, size, and shape. This decision is tailored to complement your body frame and meet your aesthetic preferences for a natural and balanced result.
The Art of the Breast Lift
The lift component of the surgery focuses on repositioning the breast tissue and nipple to a higher, more youthful position. Excess, stretched skin is carefully removed, which tightens the remaining skin envelope and creates a firmer breast shape. The technique used is customized to the degree of sagging.
Achieving a Harmonious Final Shape
The goal is to create a result where the lift and the implant work together harmoniously. The implant provides fullness, particularly in the upper part of the breast, while the lift provides the ideal shape and position. The result is a perkier, fuller, and more aesthetically pleasing breast silhouette.
Your Consultation and Preparation
- Your Initial Assessment
Your journey begins with a private consultation where you will discuss your goals and concerns. One of our board-certified surgeons will review your medical history and perform an examination to assess your breast anatomy and skin quality. This initial meeting is an opportunity to ask questions and ensure you feel comfortable and informed.
- Creating Your Personalized Surgical Plan
Based on your assessment, a customized surgical plan will be developed. This plan outlines the specific techniques, incision patterns, and implant choices that will best achieve your desired outcome. We focus on creating a strategy that is tailored to your unique body and aesthetic vision.
- Receiving Pre-Operative Instructions
Once your surgery is scheduled, you will receive detailed pre-operative instructions. These guidelines will cover topics such as which medications to avoid, when to stop eating and drinking, and how to prepare for a smooth recovery. Following these instructions is crucial for your safety and optimal results.
The Surgical Process Explained
Anesthesia and Preparation
On the day of your surgery, you will be made comfortable and general anesthesia will be administered. This ensures you are completely asleep and feel no discomfort throughout the procedure. Our team prioritizes your safety and comfort from start to finish.
Incisions and Tissue Reshaping
Your surgeon will make precise incisions, often around the areola and potentially extending downward. Through these incisions, excess skin is removed, and the underlying breast tissue is lifted and reshaped. The nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher, more natural location.
Implant Placement
After the breast tissue is reshaped, a pocket is created either above or below the chest muscle. The selected breast implant is then carefully inserted into this pocket. The placement is chosen to provide the most natural-looking fullness and shape.
Closing the Incisions
Once the implants are in place and the new breast shape is achieved, the incisions are closed with layered sutures. These techniques are designed to minimize visible scarring. Dressings and a surgical support garment will be applied to protect the area and aid in healing.

Recovery and Aftercare Timeline
The First Few Days
Immediately following surgery, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medication. You will need to rest and wear a supportive surgical bra. Arrange for someone to help you at home during this initial period.
Returning to Light Activities
Within the first week, discomfort should significantly improve, and you can begin to resume light daily activities. It is important to avoid any heavy lifting or strenuous exercise. Following your surgeon’s specific activity restrictions is key to a smooth recovery.
Follow-Up and Monitoring
You will have scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress. Our team provides ongoing support and is available to answer any questions that arise during your recovery. These check-ins ensure your healing is on track.
Seeing Your Final Results
While you will see a significant change immediately, most swelling will subside over several weeks. Your final, beautifully contoured results will become fully apparent over the next several months as your breasts settle into their new shape. Maintaining a stable weight will help preserve your results long-term.
Happy Patients, Real Confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will my breast implants last?
Breast implants are durable but are not considered lifetime devices. While many last 10-15 years or longer, regular follow-up appointments are important to monitor the integrity of your implants over time.
Can I still breastfeed after this procedure?
While many women can breastfeed after a breast lift with implants, the ability to do so can sometimes be affected. This is an important topic to discuss with your surgeon during your consultation if you plan on future pregnancies.
What will my scars look like?
Scarring is an inevitable part of any surgery, but our surgeons use advanced techniques and place incisions strategically to minimize their appearance. Over time, scars typically fade and become less noticeable.
When is the right time to get this surgery?
It is generally recommended to wait until you are finished having children and breastfeeding before undergoing this procedure. Future pregnancies and hormonal changes can impact the long-term results of your surgery.
How do I choose the right implant size?
Choosing the right implant size is a collaborative process. During your consultation, your surgeon will provide guidance on implant options based on your anatomy, body frame, and desired aesthetic outcome to ensure a balanced and natural look.
