The aging process, weight fluctuations, and pregnancy can all take a toll on a woman’s body. Breasts begin to sag and lose the perkiness they once had, but luckily breast lift surgery can help you achieve the breast shape you desire. Here are a few things to know before you undergo breast lift surgery.

1. Breast Lift Surgery Is Not an Augmentation

It is important to know the difference between breast augmentation surgery and a breast lift. Breast augmentation changes the shape of the breasts and adds volume, while a breast lift elevates the breasts to a more youthful position on the chest.

2. You Can Combine Procedures

During a woman’s life, the body experiences many changes, and that includes changes to the breasts. They can fluctuate from little and perky, to full of excess fat and tissue, to pregnant and breastfeeding breasts, to saggy, deflated pockets of skin. Because of these variations, you might want to combine an augmentation with your breast lift?

Undergoing breast augmentation during your breast lift will add fullness and volume to your lifted breasts so that you can achieve beautiful results that you will feel confident about.

3. Your Breasts Will Look Bigger at First

When you first undergo your breast lift procedure, your breasts will look a bit bigger than usual. This is completely normal and due to swelling because of the surgery. The swelling will go down with time. After this happens, your breasts will be in the perfect position on your chest, and they will be the perfect size for your body.

If you feel like your breasts are sagging and deflated too much, then breast lift surgery may be in your future. Dr. D’Souza at Iconic Plastic Surgery will explain everything during your private consultation, and he will be able to answer any questions you may have about your breast lift procedure.
