How is Breast Augmentation with Lift Done?

The breast augmentation with lift procedure uses silicone or saline implants to augment the size and shape of the breast to the desired look. The breasts are also elevated to a higher position for a more youthful appearance. Breast augmentation with a lift can usually be performed as a single surgery; however, some patients will choose to have this broken into two separate procedures. Some women are unsure of how large they want to go or how they will feel about the appearance of their breasts after the lift has been accomplished.

Patient Testimonial

“I evaluated other surgeons in the Jacksonville area, including Mayo, before deciding on Dr. Hickman. Overall, I felt much more comfortable with a female surgeon. She is empathetic, listens carefully, takes the time to understand your expectations as a woman, and most importantly does beautiful, clean, precise, and careful work. I am only on week three of healing, but the results are already amazing. And the PVPS care team is super efficient with excellent communication, service, and responsiveness. Overall, would highly recommend.”

What are the Breast Lift Incision Types?

Breast lifts are performed with varying incision patterns. Some common incision patterns include:

Circumareolar: All the way around the areola
Lollipop/Vertical: Circumareolar (around the areola) with an additional vertical incision (a vertical line that will travel down the breast to the natural fold below the breast)
Anchor/Wise Pattern: Full circumareolar, vertical incision, and horizontal incision (in the natural fold of the breast)

During your consultation, the incision placement will be discussed after your breasts have been thoroughly assessed. Women with smaller breasts will usually benefit from an incision that circles the areola only. Larger breasts, or those that have severe sagging, may need the anchor-shaped incision in order to achieve the best results.

Procedure Details for Breast Augmentation with Lift

Breast augmentation with a lift is performed under general anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility.

During this procedure, the lift will occur first. This begins with the surgeon removing excess skin residing on and around the breast to re-shape it. The underlying muscle and tissue will be pulled tight and lifted so that the breast sits in a higher position. In addition, the nipple is usually re-positioned. For excessively large breasts, the colored part around the nipple (known as the areola) will need to be surgically reduced. The surgeon will remove the outer circle and reposition the skin.

If it has been decided ahead of time that an implant will be placed during the lift procedure, it is usually positioned below the pectoralis muscle. This adds additional support to the breast and acts as an internal bra, which results in a longer-lasting outcome.

Unlike breast augmentation alone where the incisions can be carefully hidden, it’s hard to conceal the incisions that are made during the lift procedure. The number of scars and their location will depend on the surgeon’s incision strategy. Every effort is made during surgery to minimize scarring.

Will Implants Alone Help Sagging?

Breast augmentation surgery will help with size, but will not lift a sagging breast. If there is moderate to severe sagging, women should be leery of any surgeon who recommends implants alone. Women who are happy with the size of their breasts but want to correct the sagging will usually benefit from a breast lift procedure.

What Will My Recovery and Results Be Like After Surgery?

Because breast augmentation with lift in Jacksonville is a combination surgery, the recovery time can last a bit longer than a lift or augmentation alone. Most patients are able to return to work within a few short days, but exercise and aerobic activities should be eliminated for at least 2-4 weeks.

It will take a few months for the breasts to settle fully into their new position and assume a soft, natural look. Women who have lived with sagging, deflated breasts are thrilled with their new breast appearance.

Breast lifts are designed to last a very long time. As long as you do not experience a huge weight gain or become pregnant, the results can last for years. The implants are surgically placed in a way that protects the breasts from sagging. Age and gravity are unavoidable elements that will create some natural sagging throughout the years.

With proper scar care and an avoidance of sun exposure, the scars will fade and become thinner over time. Most women feel that the physical results following this surgery far outweigh the scarring left behind.
