Combining Breast Lift and Augmentation

Breast volume decreases after pregnancy and weight loss. To make matters worse, the breasts the begin to droop and sag because there is too much skin for the underlying breast tissue. Dr. Tantillo corrects these problems through cosmetic surgery in Boston by:

• Removing excess breast skin through a breast lift (mastopexy)
• Increasing the volume of the breast through breast augmentation
• Combining both procedures through augmentation mastopexy

Dr. Tantillo will determine which procedure, or combination of procedures, will suit your cosmetic needs based several factors, including on how severely your breasts sag, the elasticity of your skin, and the breast size you desire.

Who is a Candidate for Breast Enhancement?

Healthy women who are unhappy having breasts that sag and lack fullness in the upper portion are ideal candidates for combined breast lift and augmentation. Before surgery, you must be free from active infections, cancerous or precancerous cells in the breasts, and autoimmune diseases. This combined procedure can give you a more youthful and perky bustline.

Recovery from Breast Enhancement Surgery

Combined breast lift / augmentation surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure in most cases, allowing women to return home the day of their surgery. Within the first week after your breast enhancement procedure you should be able to return to most of your normal activities. Dr. Tantillo will allow you to add in exercise and other strenuous activities about 2 to 3 weeks later.
