Your Recovery & Results

For some women, a breast lift or a breast augmentation individually may not achieve all of the desired results for breast enhancement surgery. Many times, combining the two at once provides the benefits of both, along with the convenience of a single surgery and recovery period.

Known as one of the best plastic surgeons in the Bethesda-Chevy Chase metro area, Dr. Stephen Kay has helped thousands of women from around the greater Washington D.C. area and beyond improve their figure by combining breast augmentation with a breast lift. In addition to breast enhancement procedures, Dr. Kay offers a full range of facial and body cosmetic plastic surgery for women and men.

Is a Breast Augmentation with Lift Right for You?

If your breasts look deflated or droopy after pregnancy or significant weight loss, you may wish to restore a perkier, more youthful profile. Additionally, some women may also want to increase their cup size for an extra boost. A combined breast augmentation and lift can add volume to breasts while improving their size, shape, placement and firmness for more complementary results.

A breast augmentation with lift can:

  • Raise drooping or sagging breasts to a higher position
  • Create a curvier, more proportionate profile
  • Increase cup size and volume of breasts
  • Restore deflated breasts after pregnancy or significant weight loss
  • Reduce the size of the areola and adjust nipple placement
  • Help you feel more positive about your breast appearance

Breast Augmentation with Lift Costs

The costs associated with a breast augmentation plus lift will vary depending on the type of surgical approach Dr. Kay takes and whether additional procedures are performed at the same time. The total costs of the procedure will include Dr. Kay’s surgical fee as well as the fees associated with anesthesia and the surgical facility, and any follow-up appointments. Dr. Kay and his staff are happy to explain all the available options for cosmetic surgery financing that can help make your breast enhancement even more affordable.

What to Expect

A breast augmentation with lift combines the surgical steps of a breast augmentation and breast lift to create a fuller, firmer, more youthful-looking figure.

  • For the breast augmentation portion of the surgery, Dr. Kay will use either silicone gel or saline implants to increase your cup size and give you larger, shapelier breasts. An incision will be made underneath the areola, the crease of the breast or in the armpit depending on your individual needs and the type of implant being inserted. Dr. Kay will then create a pocket for the implant, which may be placed just under the breast tissue or under the breast tissue and underlying pectoral muscle. Dr. Kay will place and adjust your implants for a naturally fuller look.
  • During your breast lift Dr. Kay will lift and reshape your natural breast tissue to raise and firm your breasts. An incision may be made around the areola, vertically from the areola to the bottom of the breast, along the bottom crease of the breast, or Dr. Kay may use a combination of the three to ensure the best possible outcome. Dr. Kay will then remove excess skin, along with reducing areolas and repositioning nipples if necessary.

Your Recovery & Results

Immediately after your procedure, you may notice a change in your breasts, although the final results will be obscured by swelling and possibly some bruising at first. Dr. Kay may request that you wear a compression garment or elastic bandage to support your breasts as they heal, minimizing swelling and discomfort.

You should expect to take 2 weeks off from work, although some patients may be able to resume normal activities after about a week. By around 6 months, your breasts should be settled into their new, more youthful position, and you can enjoy an uplifted profile along with a flattering increase in size.  You can learn more here.
