Breast Lift After Breast Augmentation?

Having already had one anesthesia you might as well go ahead and have the breast lift at the same time saving yourself a second anesthia. If your doctor is recomending a lift it probably because you have excess skin , you do not want to end up with what is known as "snoopy boobs". If scarring is your fear there are many medical grade scarring creams that can used such as BioCorneum

If you are seen by a few  well experienced, board-certified plastic surgeons  who recommend breast lifting along with the augmentation, then it would behoove you to do the procedures together. Otherwise, you are bound to be dissatisfied with the results and require further surgery to reach your goals. Further searching will obviously lead to further costs etc.

As in any other area of medicine is important to make the correct diagnosis and tailor  a treatment plan (surgical procedure)  to treat the diagnosis. It would be better NOT to do  and surgery  then to be disappointed with the results.

Again, make sure you consult with well experienced board certified plastic surgeons.

Best wishes.

Hi there-
Breast augmentation with mastopexy certainly can be staged into two operations, particularly if you and your surgeon are not sure the breast lift will be necessary to achieve your goals.
This is a much different situation, however from one in which your surgeon is recommending that you have a breast lift with your augmentation in order to achieve the goal you have described to them...
In my experience, achieving the optimal breast shape is absolutely critical, and much more important than size, and if you need a breast lift to have a pleasant shape and don't have this done, you are likely to be unhappy after augmentation as the breasts look larger, more droopy (due to the weight of the implants), and matronly.
Even if it means delaying your surgery, I would recommend returning to your surgeon for another visit... Talk to them about why they made the recommendation and see if it makes more sense to you.
