Breast Augmentation vs Breast Lift: Which is Right for You?

Breast augmentation corrects issues both aesthetically and physically. If someone is seeking a larger cup size, argumentation is the way to go, however, if it is more of a drooping issue, there are options. The patient is the ultimate judge. However, plastic surgeons may examine how extreme the unseemly, and sometimes painful, dropping is.

Breast Augmentation

  • If the dropping is minimal and the nipples are central to the breasts and do not point downwardly.
  • If the patient is willing to go up a cup and has prime, healthy skin to hold an implant.
  • If the patient wants to return to the youthful roundness and firmness of their breasts.

Breast Lift

  • If the patient’s breasts are severely drooping and the nipples point southwardly.
  • If the patient does not have firm skin visible when examined and cannot withstand an implant.
  • If the patient is an average breast size and does not wish to enlarge, rather, to keep their size and merely reshape.

In the end, the finality of the decision belongs to the patient and the patient alone. Whether a patient gets a second opinion or continues their research, the options are there and questions are available to pose to surgeons.

Minimally Invasive Breast Lift

If a woman is happy with the size of her breast but not the position, a minimally invasive breast lift may be the answer they’re looking for because it will improve the shape, volume, and firmness of the breast and create a more youthful appearance.

Breast Implants

For some women, breast implants are the optimal choice. Reasons for women wanting to get breast implants can range from having asymmetrical breasts to fitting into clothes better or to simply enlarge their breasts. Saline and silicone implants are the most common form of breast implants. However, fat grafting is becoming an increasingly popular procedure for enlarging breasts. The plastic surgeon will remove fat from one area of the body and place it to another. Fat transfers for a breast augmentation are designed to lift the breasts to a higher position which will add volume and enhance the shape, resulting in a more youthful and prominent appearance.

The choice for a breast lift or implants is a personal choice, each has their own special benefits.  Sometimes a breast lift or implants may improve a woman’s self-image by boosting their self-esteem and feeling more confident. As always, you should consult with a plastic surgeon to see which option is best for you and your body.

After a Significant Weight Loss

Most women who lose weight whether naturally through exercise and proper diet or through bariatric surgery will opt for a breast lift to feel more confident. Why are breasts affected by weight loss? Breasts are mainly composed of fat and if you lose weight they start to sag and flatten. There is excess skin that has to be removed so the breasts can stop sagging and look perky and full.

Post Pregnancy

Many women anticipate and embrace the body changes during pregnancy but they do not anticipate the permanent changes after they deliver. During pregnancy, your body is preparing to nurture another human being and hence it will increase the production of estrogen and progesterone, both hormones stimulate milk production. These hormones and increase in milk volume can make your breasts larger and can permanently stretch the skin. Many women are left with sagging breasts and stretched out areolas which negatively affects their confidence. If you are finished having children, you can get a breast lift to make them perky and fuller.

Older Women

Age and gravity are not that friendly to breasts. They can cause them to sag. Many older women who want a youthful appearance are opting for breast lifts to boost their confidence. However, for a woman over the age of 50 to undergo the surgery, they should be healthy and not have medical conditions.

Who Can Benefit From A Breast Lift?

Pregnancy, weight fluctuations and aging have been known to cause breasts sagging or ptosis. Because of the above reasons, women’s breasts do not stay as perky and full as they once were when they were younger. Sagging breasts can make you feel less confident and also cause discomfort.
