BREAST LIFT WITH ENLARGEMENT(Augmentation/Mastopexy)
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
Although a single stage breast augmentation procedure
is preferable to the surgeon and patient
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
sometimes a breast augmentation alone will not give the desired result and
an uplift of the breast tissue (mastopexy) is required
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
Breast augmentation/mastopexy when performed in a single stage
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
presents more significant challenges than either augmentation or
mastopexy alone
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
The combination of breast augmentation and mastopexy in one surgery increases
the risk of complications than either surgery carries alone

After breastfeeding or weight loss (or for other reasons), the natural breast tissue
can descend on the chest wall
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
The main reason for a breast lift is to raise the position of downward pointing nipples,
areolas and breast tissue

IMPLANTS ALONE WILL NOT RAISE THE POSITION OF THE BREAST
OR NIPPLE SIGNIFICANTLY
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
Therefore if a patient presents with a saggy breast, an aesthetically pleasing
result cannot be
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
achieved without the repositioning of the nipple and breast tissue
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
If breast enlargement and a more fuller upper pole look is also desired
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
then the insertion of implantsshould also be performed
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
Performing the two procedures simultaneously is better for the
patient for many reasons
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
not the least being the economic considerations of cost, discomfort
and time off work and leisure
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
It is possible to perform breast enlargement and repositioning at the same time in the majority of patients
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
but these patients must accept that there may be a need for a further relatively
minor corrective procedure if the ideal cosmetic outcome is to be achieved
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
Reasons for revision were more tissue related rather than implant related
and include areolar asymmetry
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
pseudoptosis with “bottoming-out”, breast asymmetry, recurrent and
persistent ptosis
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
poor scarring and superficial nipple-areolar necrosis
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
The secondary procedure would entail an adjustment of either the
position of the implant
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
or the position of the nipple and almost always is attended by minimal post-operative recovery and downtime
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
There would be additional surgical, anaesthetic and theatre fees
Visit us at http://www.lotus-institute.com.au
but these would always be less than if one planned two separate operations 4-6 months apart
