Does Breast Lift Require Augmentation Afterwards? I want to get a breast lift. In my first consultation with a cosmetic surgeon he said my breast may lose 15% of volume because of skin removed. Does this mean most women get breast implants at the same time as a lift, or is this a path to greater complications?

A: augmentation with breast lift

During your consultation your board certified plastic surgeon will discuss your options breast lift alone or breast augmentation with lift. There are alot of things to consider. With a breast lift alone your are raising the nipple/areola into a higher position on the chest, taking out the skin to tighten, and possiblly taking out some breast tissue(you can discuss this with your doctor). However the upper pole of the chest will remain the same. If that area is flat it can be filled up with an implant. O f course there is added cost and potential complications associated with the implant. My recommendation is to discuss this with your doctor to determine what is best for you
