What is breast lift and augmentation?

Breast lift and augmentation is a two-in-one procedure designed to address multiple concerns at once:

• Breast lift surgery: Removes loose or excess skin while lifting and reshaping the breasts. A breast lift can also reposition the nipple-areola for a more youthful look. If you've been searching for ways to fix drooping breasts or reduce areola size, this could be part of your solution.
• Breast augmentation: Involves inserting implants (silicone or saline) to enhance the overall breast size and volume. This is ideal if your breasts appear deflated due to breast changes during pregnancy or significant weight loss.

The benefits of a combined approach

A combination surgery offers a number of advantages, especially for women looking for a comprehensive transformation. Here are some of the top benefits of a breast lift and augmentation:

• Less recovery time: Combining two surgeries means you only need to go through one recovery period rather than having separate recovery periods for each one. This can be a huge time-saver and is especially beneficial for those with busy schedules or limited time off from work.
• Improved results: A combined breast lift and augmentation often yields more significant and desirable results compared to doing each surgery individually. By addressing both sagging and volume loss, the overall appearance of the breasts can be greatly improved.
• Cost-effective: Combining surgeries also means combining costs, which can result in significant savings compared to undergoing each procedure separately.

At Dr. Woodyard Plastic Surgery near Baltimore, MD, patients receive individualized guidance on how this procedure can help them achieve their desired look.

Ideal candidates for breast lift surgery with augmentation

This procedure can be a good fit for many women, but it's not one-size-fits-all. You might consider it if you:

• Notice breast changes during pregnancy or due to age or weight loss
• Feel your breasts look deflated or have lost volume
• Want to fix drooping breasts and enhance their fullness at the same time
• Would like to reduce areola size or correct nipple position
• Are near your ideal weight and don't plan on future pregnancies (to maintain long-lasting results)

During a consultation with Dr. Woodyard, we can evaluate your goals, anatomy, and health to ensure this option aligns with your expectations.
