Advantages of Combining Breast Lift and Breast Augmentation

There are a number of procedures which can contour your breasts and restore any sagging.  One of these procedures is called an augmentopexy.  This is an operation which both adds volume and lift to your breasts.  For women who have experienced sagging after pregnancy or massive weight loss, it can be a life-enhancing choice.  Dr. Rifai, a Detroit cosmetic surgeon can combine a breast lift with augmentation to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Pluses of Breast Augmentation With Breast Lift

One of the main benefits of an augmentopexy is that a breast augmentation does not provide lift and a traditional breast lift adds no volume.  By combining the two procedures, your breasts will be shaped and sculpted into the firmness and size you desire.  It both corrects positioning and adds volume in one cosmetic surgery procedure.

With the natural aging process, breasts will sag.  Pregnancy or weight loss are also reasons for drooping.  For many women, implants alone do not provide significant enough lift to the breasts.  Plus, there are times when the added weight of any implants can worsen sagging due to skin stretchiness and loss of elasticity.

Candidates for Breast Lift and Augmentation

Factors which can make the combined breast lift and augmentation procedure appropriate for include women who:

• Want a fuller, less saggy bust line
• Have decreased elasticity and stretchiness due to weight loss or pregnancy
• Have small breasts which are now sagging and droopy
