Augmentation With Lift

Some patients want more volume or fill but their breasts are too loose or droopy to undergo a breast augmentation alone. Other patients want to have breasts that are higher and perkier, but do not have the volume necessary to make the breasts look full and attractive.

At its most basic, a breast augmentation does just what its name says it does: it augments the breasts. It makes them larger and more full. If a patient does not want to be bigger then she does not need an augmentation. Some patients will say that they want to be fuller but do not want to be any larger. But adding anything to fill a breast will invariably make it larger.

While patients will enthusiastically want an augmentation, patients can be more reluctant towards considering a breast lift because a lift involves more scarring than a breast augmentation. Nevertheless, patients who want their breasts to be less droopy will choose to have a breast lift.
