Why Breast Lift With Augmentation?
Combining breast lift with breast augmentation appeals to women who are looking not only for a fuller breast, but a solution to the sagging that can occur with age. The procedure can also aid in restoring fullness to the upper breast, a common problem for women who have had one or more pregnancies and breastfeeding. Even if you are not seeking a change in cup size, the combination of an upper implant with the tightening of the deflated tissue can do wonders for the appearance of your breasts.
A full consultation with Dr. Mariotti will help Danville and San Ramon women determine if breast lift should be combined with augmentation. But for a quick answer, there is one simple test: if your nipple is above the fold of your breast, you likely do not need a lift. If your nipple falls below the breast fold, or is just at the level of the fold, it is likely that Dr. Mariotti will recommend a breast lift with augmentation.
During Surgery
This surgery will take 2.5 to 3 hours and is performed at Premier Surgery Center in Concord, near Danville, San Ramon, and Walnut Creek. Most breast augmentation and breast lift patients receive general anesthesia and are discharged from the recovery room after an hour or two of observation.
Showing Off Your New Look
Although implants do feel sore, the pain is easily managed with oral pain medication. You can resume light activity in 3 to 5 days. More strenuous activity should be avoided for 2 weeks. Because the tissue has been tightened, your new breasts will take 3 to 4 weeks to settle into their eventual shape. After recovery, you can enjoy the new youthful look of your breasts.
