Combine breast lift and augmentation in one procedure to restore youthful elevation while adding volume for fuller, perkier breasts with optimal shape and projection.
Breast lift with augmentation, also called augmentation-mastopexy, combines two procedures in one surgery to address both sagging and volume loss. This comprehensive approach lifts drooping breasts while adding fullness through implants, creating a youthful, voluptuous breast contour.
This advanced combination procedure carefully balances lift and volume for natural-looking, proportionate results. GalaFLEX bioresorbable scaffold is utilized in all mastopexy and augmentation procedures, providing internal support that helps maintain optimal breast shape during healing. Women who have experienced breast changes from pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or aging often benefit from both lifting and enhancement to achieve their aesthetic goals.
During a consultation, breast anatomy, skin quality, and desired outcome are evaluated to determine the optimal surgical plan. Combining procedures requires precise technique and expertise to ensure proper implant placement, nipple positioning, and overall breast shape.
Address both sagging and volume loss in one comprehensive procedure for dramatic improvement.
One surgery means one recovery period and less time off work compared to two separate procedures.
Elevate breasts to youthful position with improved upper pole fullness and projection.
Add fullness and curves with implants customized to your body and goals.
Reshape breasts with better contour, symmetry, and overall aesthetic appearance.
Advanced bioresorbable scaffold provides internal support during healing for enhanced long-term results and breast shape stability.
Combined breast lift and augmentation may be right for you if:
You have sagging breasts with loss of volume and fullness
You want both lift and increased breast size simultaneously
You have lost breast volume and firmness from pregnancy or weight loss
Your nipples point downward and breasts lack upper pole fullness
You are in good overall health and at a stable weight
You have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
You have completed childbearing or willing to accept changes from future pregnancy
You are a non-smoker or willing to quit smoking before and after surgery
GalaFLEX is an FDA-approved bioresorbable scaffold made from P4HB that your surgeon uses in all mastopexy and augmentation procedures. It provides internal soft tissue support during the critical healing period, helping maintain breast shape and position. The scaffold gradually absorbs while your body creates its own supportive tissue, resulting in more stable, long-lasting results.
Combining procedures allows you to address both sagging and volume loss in one surgery, resulting in one recovery period and one set of scars compared to staging the procedures separately. Many women who need lifting also desire more volume, making this combination ideal.
Recovery is similar to either procedure alone, though you may experience slightly more swelling and discomfort initially. The key advantage is having one recovery period instead of two separate recoveries if procedures were staged. Most patients find this approach more convenient.
While you have flexibility in implant selection, your surgeon will recommend appropriate sizes based on your breast tissue quality, skin elasticity, and body frame. Very large implants with significant lifting can increase complications, so choosing moderate sizes often provides the best long-term results.
The incision pattern for combined lift and augmentation is typically the same as for breast lift alone. Implants are placed through the existing lift incisions, so you will not have additional scars from the augmentation component of the procedure.
It is generally recommended to wait until after completing your family, as pregnancy and breastfeeding can significantly alter breast shape and position. However, having the procedure before children is safe, and you can undergo a revision after pregnancy if desired.
For mild sagging, implants can improve upper pole fullness and create the appearance of a more lifted breast, but they do not actually reposition drooping tissue. A true lift requires mastopexy to remove excess skin and reposition the nipple. During consultation, your surgeon will evaluate your degree of ptosis to determine whether augmentation alone can achieve your goals or if a combined lift is recommended.
