A breast lift with implants, known medically as augmentation mastopexy, is a cosmetic surgery that combines a breast lift (mastopexy) and augmentation. The lift repositions and reshapes the breasts to correct sagging, while the implants add volume and enhance the overall breast contour. This dual approach is especially beneficial for women experiencing both loss of firmness and decreased breast size due to factors like aging, pregnancy, or significant weight changes.
Expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort for the first week, which is managed with medication and supportive garments. Most patients can resume light activities within a few days, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for several weeks. Detailed aftercare instructions are provided to support your healing.
Most patients return to work and daily activities within 1–2 weeks, depending on the nature of their job and individual healing. Complete recovery, including return to high-impact exercise, can take 4–6 weeks. Your timeline may vary, and Dr. Sanchez-Navarro will provide personalized guidance at each follow-up visit.
If your breasts have lost both shape and volume, or if you have always wanted a fuller, higher bustline, a breast lift with implants may be right for you.
