BREAST LIFT WITH ENLARGEMENT(Augmentation/Mastopexy)

http://www.lotus-institute.com.au/


Although a single stage breast augmentation procedure

is preferable to the surgeon and patient



sometimes a breast augmentation alone will not give the desired result and

an uplift of the breast tissue (mastopexy) is required



Breast augmentation/mastopexy when performed in a single stage



presents more significant challenges than either augmentation or

mastopexy alone



The combination of breast augmentation and mastopexy in one surgery increases

the risk of complications than either surgery carries alone



After breastfeeding or weight loss (or for other reasons), the natural breast tissue

can descend on the chest wall



The main reason for a breast lift is to raise the position of downward pointing nipples,

areolas and breast tissue



IMPLANTS ALONE WILL NOT RAISE THE POSITION OF THE BREAST

OR NIPPLE SIGNIFICANTLY



Therefore if a patient presents with a saggy breast, an aesthetically pleasing

result cannot be



achieved without the repositioning of the nipple and breast tissue



If breast enlargement and a more fuller upper pole look is also desired



then the insertion of implantsshould also be performed



Performing the two procedures simultaneously is better for the

patient for many reasons



not the least being the economic considerations of cost, discomfort

and time off work and leisure



It is possible to perform breast enlargement and repositioning at the same time in the majority of patients



but these patients must accept that there may be a need for a further relatively

minor corrective procedure if the ideal cosmetic outcome is to be achieved



Reasons for revision were more tissue related rather than implant related

and include areolar asymmetry



pseudoptosis with “bottoming-out”, breast asymmetry, recurrent and

persistent ptosis



poor scarring and superficial nipple-areolar necrosis



The secondary procedure would entail an adjustment of either the

position of the implant



or the position of the nipple and almost always is attended by minimal post-operative recovery and downtime



There would be additional surgical, anaesthetic and theatre fees



but these would always be less than if one planned two separate operations 4-6 months apart
