Some women are unhappy with the shape of their breasts, and some feel that they lack volume, but what can you do if you face a combination of these issues? Instead of addressing these two problems separately, you could consider combining a breast lift with a breast implant to solve both issues in one surgery. This combo procedure is ideal for patients who want to lift and reshape their breasts while also increasing their fullness.
Combining these procedures has numerous advantages that are worth looking at before booking your consultation.
Benefits of Combining a Breast Lift with Breast Implants:
Improved Shape and Size:
A breast lift alone can improve breast sagging, but it does not increase breast volume. This can sometimes be a problem when the breasts lack enough volume to deliver the desired results to patients. Combining a breast lift with a breast implant allows patients to achieve both a lifted and fuller breast appearance. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the patient’s cup size will increase, and many choose to go for an implant that is more complementary to their body type. A breast lift paired with implants can also improve cleavage, giving a more youthful and appealing breast contour.
More Control Over Results:
Combining a breast lift with breast augmentation allows for a more customizable outcome. Patients can choose the size and shape of the implants while the breast lift is able to provide the desired contours. When a breast lift is performed without implants a surgeon can only use the available tissue to shape the breasts. Therefore, if the breasts lack volume, it can have a big influence on the final results. The combination of procedures also enables the surgeon to reposition the nipples, something that is not generally done during a breast augmentation.
Reduced Cost and Shorter Recovery:
If you were to receive both of these procedures separately it would not only cost more, but your overall recovery time would be much longer. The recovery process for each surgery typically lasts around three to six weeks, and by combining procedures you only go through the recovery period once. The costs are also greatly reduced because you only need to pay for one session in the operating room and all the costs that go with it, such as medicines and anesthesia.
Are you a Candidate for Combined Surgery?
Patients should always consult with a qualified surgeon to learn more about the procedure, discuss their goals and ensure they are suitable candidates for surgery. The ideal patient is someone who lives a healthy lifestyle and has realistic expectations of what surgery can achieve. A doctor will assess your physical health during a consultation to ensure that you are a viable candidate before approving the procedures.
