Breast Lift with Implants at a Glance
What is Breast Lift with Augmentation?
A breast lift with augmentation, also called augmentation mastopexy, is a combination procedure that lifts sagging breasts while adding fullness using implants. This surgery is ideal for women who want to enhance breast volume and correct drooping caused by aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations. By combining both procedures into one, patients can enjoy a more youthful, symmetrical contour with a single recovery period.
How Does Breast Lift with Augmentation Work?
During the procedure, Dr. Mariotti uses breast implants to restore lost volume and performs a lift to reposition the breasts and nipples higher on the chest. The combination improves the breast shape, firmness, and projection. Incisions are carefully placed to minimize visible scarring, and the surgery is customized to meet your body proportions and cosmetic goals. This personalized approach results in a beautiful, natural enhancement.
Benefits of a Breast Lift with Augmentation
Combining a breast lift with implants provides the benefit of addressing both volume and sagging at once. This results in perkier, fuller breasts with improved shape, balance, and symmetry. Women often report higher self-confidence and a better fit in clothing and swimwear. This procedure is also commonly part of a mommy makeover for women looking to restore their pre-pregnancy figure with lasting, natural-looking results.
Can Breast Lift with Augmentation be paired with other treatments?
Absolutely. Many patients choose to pair their breast lift with augmentation with additional procedures such as a tummy tuck, liposuction, or facial rejuvenation treatments from MSpa in Concord, CA. These comprehensive treatment plans help patients achieve a more dramatic overall transformation while consolidating recovery time. Dr. Mariotti will recommend the best combination based on your goals and health profile.
The Best Candidates
Combining breast augmentation with breast lift appeals to women who are looking not only for fuller breasts but also a solution to the sagging that can occur with age.
Even if you are not seeking a change in cup size, the combination of an upper implant with the tightening of your natural breast tissue can bring out the best in your figure.
A full consultation with Dr. Mariotti will help you determine whether your breast lift should be combined with implants. But for a quick answer, you can use 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, Dr. Mariotti will likely recommend a breast lift with your augmentation.

Before, During, and After
What To Expect Before a Breast Lift with Augmentation
Before your surgery, you’ll meet with Dr. Mariotti at his Concord office for a detailed consultation to discuss your goals and medical history. He’ll help you choose the right implant size and lift technique based on your body and aesthetic preferences. You’ll also receive pre-surgery instructions such as avoiding certain medications, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and preparing for a smooth, stress-free recovery at home.
What To Expect During a Breast Lift with Augmentation
On the day of your surgery, you’ll be placed under general anesthesia at our Concord surgical center. The operation takes 2.5 to 3 hours. Dr. Mariotti will insert the breast implants and perform the lift by removing excess skin and reshaping the natural tissue. The goal is to create a beautiful, uplifted appearance with minimal scarring and optimal implant placement.
What To Expect After a Breast Lift with Augmentation
Although your breasts will likely feel sore, any pain should be 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 breasts should take 3 to 4 weeks to settle into their new contours. After recovery, you can enjoy your new look!
Recovery includes some soreness and swelling, which can be controlled with prescribed medication. You’ll wear a support bra and follow Dr. Mariotti’s post-op care instructions closely. Light activity can resume in 3–5 days but avoid strenuous movement for at least 2 weeks. Over the next few weeks, your breasts will gradually settle into their new, lifted position and shape.
