Achieve Your Ideal Contour

Over time, aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and weight fluctuations can cause breasts to lose volume and sag. At Fulcrum Aesthetics in Chicago, we understand how these changes impact your self-esteem and body image. A breast augmentation with lift, also known as augmentation mastopexy, combines the benefits of breast implants and a lift to restore lost volume and elevate the breasts to a more youthful position. Our skilled team, led by Dr. David Hill and nurse practitioner Brittony Croasdell, is committed to helping you achieve the look you desire, ensuring your comfort and satisfaction throughout your journey.

What Is Breast Augmentation with Lift?

Breast augmentation with lift is a comprehensive surgical procedure that combines breast implants with a breast lift. This dual approach enhances breast size, shape, and position by inserting implants and removing excess skin while lifting and reshaping the remaining breast tissue. The result is fuller, more youthful-looking breasts that align with your aesthetic goals.

What to Expect: The Breast Augmentation with Lift Procedure

The breast augmentation with lift procedure at Fulcrum Aesthetics usually takes two to three hours and is performed under general anesthesia. Here’s what you can expect on this journey:

  1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a detailed consultation to discuss your goals and assess your breast tissue.
  2. Preparation: On the day of surgery, your skin will be cleansed, and anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort.
  3. Incisions: Dr. Hill will make incisions based on the predetermined surgical plan, which may include a circular pattern around the areola, a vertical line from the areola to the breast crease, and a horizontal line along the breast crease.
  4. Implant Placement: Depending on your anatomy and desired results, the chosen breast implants will be inserted either under the chest muscle (submuscular) or directly behind the breast tissue (subglandular).
  5. Reshaping and Lifting: Excess skin is removed, and the remaining breast tissue is lifted and reshaped to achieve the desired contour. The nipple and areola are repositioned to a more youthful height.
  6. Completion: Once the desired shape is achieved, the incisions are closed with sutures, and you will be monitored during your initial recovery period.

Breast Augmentation with Lift Recovery & Results

Recovery from a breast augmentation with lift requires some downtime, but most patients find it manageable. You can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the initial days following surgery, which can be controlled with prescribed medications. It’s important to avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting for at least four to six weeks to allow your body to heal properly.

Results from a breast augmentation with lift are visible immediately, with the final shape settling over the next few months as swelling subsides. The outcome is fuller, uplifted breasts that can significantly enhance your overall appearance and confidence. Maintaining a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle will help preserve your results for many years.
