As with any cosmetic surgery, the “one size fits all” approach is not right for everyone, especially when your surgery choice literally involves a desired size. In fact, your elective procedure should be just as unique as you are. While surgical technique may be the same for most patients, your goals to be achieved will depend on what you are working with to begin with. When it comes to your aesthetic goals for your breasts, you may be considering “will a breast lift suffice or do I just need implants?”

If pre-surgery, you are happy with the size of your breasts, yet they have started to droop or sag and the nipples fall below the breast fold, you will likely be satisfied with a breast lift alone. A breast lift can sufficiently lift the breasts to a higher and more youthful posture, reshaping the breast tissue and shifting the areola and nipple to a better position. On the other hand, if your breasts have lost volume, usually due to weight fluctuation or breastfeeding, a breast lift surgery with implants may be your better option to add the fullness you desire. In addition to adding a more rounded shape, implants can also restore symmetry to your breasts. In some cases, each breast may require a different size implant to ensure they are proportional. Ultimately, your decision will come down to what look you want to achieve with your surgery. At CLIENT NAME we offer personalized consultations to help you make the right choice for your breast surgery. In the event you choose to combine a breast lift with breast implants, in most cases, the surgeries can be completed at the same time to help aid in both cost and recovery time.

Whether a breast lift will suffice or you elect for a breast augmentation as well, patients should be at their ideal weight and completed childbearing. Allow our surgeons at David W. Allison, MD to help guide you through the different processes to receive the greatest benefits from your breast surgery. Call by 703-754-8228 or book your consultation online at WEBSITE.
