I'm very interested in having a Breast augmentation by was told by a surgeon that for the best results i should have breast lift as well. My question is that since I do plan on having children at some point and breast feeding, would I be pointless to get a lift now?
Answer: Breast lift There are three factors that can change your breasts after a breast lift - weight fluctuations, pregnancies and aging. You can not do anything about aging... I advise patients if they are planning further pregnancies that they will likely want another breast procedure

CONTACT NOW Answer: Lift essential Often a breast augmentation cannot be done by itself.A lift is required otherwise the implant will be placed too low.That is why your surgeon is recommending a simultaneous lift.The advantage of a simultaneous lift is that by lifting your breast higher on the chest wall it is possible to align your areola, breast tissue and implant over the bony prominence of the chest wall maximizing anterior projection with a minimal size implant.Small round textured silicone gel implants placed retro-pectoral look and feel more natural, are more stable, less likely to ripple or have complications needing revision.I recommend you follow your surgeon’s advice and get the lift at the same time as the implant to get the superior result.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast lift prior to having kids? Thanks for your inquiry. It is not necessarily pointless having a lift prior to kids but you should be aware that pregnancy could might change your breasts and affect the final result. You should also speak to your PS about your particular breast lift operation and the potential impact on breast feeding (if this is important to you).

Answer: Preganancy after a breast lift might undo some of the aesthetic benefit. Breast lifts but more often breast reduction (which includes a breast lift) are occasionally performed in young women before childbirth. They are usually quite pleased but pregnancy can take its toll on the outcome.

Answer: Lift before kids? This is a great question and one I confront on a weekly basis. Honestly, it depends upon your finances and, in Queens, I don't see many patients for whom this is inconsequential. If you have a lift and then gain weight during pregnancy or breast feed, the likelihood is that you will need a revision. Anyone who sloughs this off is being less than truthful as opposed to losing a case. If the need for later surgery and its costs aren't critical issues for you, then by all means you could have surgery at this point.
