Surgery 101: What You Need to Know about Breast Augmentation + Lift
As summer approaches, have you been eyeing your warm-weather outfits and swimsuits warily? Perhaps you’re pondering the fact that you’ll be showing a little more skin — but you’re still not quite happy with the skin you’re in. If so, now is a great time to take the first step toward feeling your best.
At The Lucas Center, we’re on a mission to help people of all shapes and sizes feel confident and comfortable. This often means addressing concerns women have with their breasts.
If you’re ready to feel confident in your physique again, let’s look at one of the most popular surgeries Dr. Lucas performs to give women’s self-image a boost: the breast augmentation and lift.
Reasons for a Breast Augmentation + Lift
A customized breast augmentation and lift (with or without implants) might be for you if:
- You feel your breasts are too small for your body
- Your breasts are irregularly shaped or mismatched
- You’re concerned about sagging breasts
- Aging, significant weight loss, or pregnancy have resulted in a “deflated” look
Your reasons, needs, and desired results are personal, and that’s why our care is too.
How Does a Breast Augmentation + Lift Work?
A breast augmentation and mastopexy (also known as a breast lift) increase the volume of the breasts and reposition them. Your breasts can be made slightly fuller by grafting fat from your own tissue (i.e. taking some excess fat from your stomach or thighs) to fill in low-volume areas, or you can opt for implants to receive natural-looking results while gaining a cup size or more!
The mastopexy procedure allows Dr. Lucas to raise sagging breasts for a more youthful, perky, and still natural-looking result. Ultimately, our goal is to enhance your natural beauty and your body image so that you can feel your best.
Care Customized to You
No two bodies (or pairs of breasts!) are the same. That’s why, when you come to The Lucas Center to consult with Dr. Lucas, he takes the time to get to know you and review your personal health before forming a custom plan you feel great about.
To help you visualize your results, we offer state-of-the-art VECTRA 3D Imaging. Using simulation software to produce 3D images from multiple angles, our team at The Lucas Center can help you trade uncertainty for confidence!
Once you decide on your desired results, the simulation will serve as the base for your surgical plan — and because you’ve already seen the result, you’ll be able to rest easy knowing you made the right decision for YOU.
