Do you need an implant with your breast lift?

Do you need an implant with your breast lift?

The word “need” is a strong word. You never “need” anything in elective cosmetic surgery. That being said, there are instances where you may benefit from the addition of a breast implant at the time of a breast lift surgery (also known as an augmentation mastopexy procedure). It is important to understand what each part of the operation accomplishes.

The breast lift or mastopexy is designed to remove excess skin, lift the location of nipple and areola, and create a rounder and more youthful breast shape. The mastopexy will not make the breast any larger and tends not to alter the volume in the upper pole of the breast.

Breast Lift VS. Breast Reduction: Which Procedure Is Right For You? 

Cosmetic breast procedures have become increasingly popular, offering individuals the opportunity to enhance their physical appearance and boost their self-confidence. The three main categories of breast procedures are augmentations (making the breasts larger), reductions (making the breasts smaller), and breast lifts or mastopexies (raising the height of the nipple and/or reshaping the breast tissue). Some procedures combine portions of these operations into a single cosmetic surgery.

There is some confusion regarding breast reductions and mastopexies. Patients often come to me requesting a breast reduction when they actually are describing a mastopexy and vice versa. While both involve alterations to the breasts, they serve distinct purposes and cater to unique patient needs. Let’s delve into the nuances that differentiate mastopexy and breast reduction.

Unveiling The Aging Upper Eye: A Guide To Upper Blepharoplasty

Introduction to Upper Blepharoplasty: An upper blepharoplasty, or an upper eyelid lift, is a plastic surgery procedure that is meant to improve the appearance of the aging upper eyelid. Debunking Myths: Understanding the True Effects of Upper Eyelid Surgery The shape of the eye does not generally change with age. Over time, factors such as aging, genetics, smoking, and other environmental exposures lead to the development of hooded skin of the upper eyelids, resulting in a tired, aged appearance. In some instances, there is enough excess skin that the skin even rests on the upper eyelid lashes. An upper blepharoplasty addresses these concerns by removing excess skin and fat and restoring a more youthful contour to the eyes. In some instances, the eyelid itself can droop which is referred to as ptosis and requires special consideration. Will I Have Scars? The Art of Concealing Incisions in Eyelid Surgery Anytime the

Dr. Wilson stitched me after I had MOHS surgery on my face. He was incredibly cautious and walked me through all the best stitching possibilities. Once he explained the best way to end up with the smallest scar, he stitched me up and I was healed in a week. The mark is so small you almost can’t see it. In 6 month to a year with proper care and treatment I’m sure it will be gone.
