Breast lift surgery is designed to remove loose and sagging skin from the breast mound. With a breast lift, tissue is raised into a perkier and more youthful position and firmed to create ideal symmetry and shape. The procedure is ideal for women whose breasts have begun to sag, no matter the extent, and who desire a lifted and optimally shaped breast mound.
Breast lift surgery can cause a slight reduction in cup size. This is not an issue for everyone. In fact, in some cases, a slight size reduction is preferable. However, women who are concerned with volume loss in addition to sagging tissue may benefit from a combination of lift with breast implants.
Breast augmentation is designed to improve the size, shape, symmetry, and projection of the breasts. Most often accomplished with implants, breast augmentation does not lift sagging tissue but instead adds volume to the chest. Augmentation is ideal for women whose breasts are too small, asymmetrical, or otherwise unappealing to their frame.
Some of the issues that can result in volume loss, such as weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and the process of aging, can also result in breast sagging. In these cases, it is best to combine augmentation with lift. This comprehensive approach allows for the complete optimization of the breasts and helps to ensure highly desirable contours.
