What is the final result of Breast Augmentation Mastopexy ?Breast Augmentation Mastopexy
A breast augmentation mastopexy is a surgical procedure that combines breast augmentation with mastopexy or breast lift.
The aim of the surgery is to improve the shape and size of the breasts, as well as to correct sagging.
How do we do a Breast Augmentation Mastopexy?
Patients can typically have a breast augmentation mastopexy performed and go home the same day, with occasionally an overnight stay required.
The procedure is performed under general anaesthetic where the patient is put to sleep.
The incision most commonly is around the nipple, extends straight down to the breast crease and then runs in this crease running to both the inside and outside of the chest.
Occasionally, patients may have a tube inserted to drain away fluid after surgery. The wounds are dressed to ensure the nipples can be checked for blood supply.
After surgery, the patient is immediately placed into medical-grade compression bras to support the breasts.
What kind of patients would benefit from a Breast Augmentation Mastopexy ?
Typically patients have had a child or children with breastfeeding (Late 20’s, early 30’s) or as they have got older noticed the droopiness (mid 40’s).
The volume in the breast is likely to be less than it used to be in a bra, and out of it, the breast looks hollower at the top of the breast, flatter down the main part of the breast and the nipple is nearer the bottom of the breast itself.
What do we do before a Breast Augmentation Mastopexy ?
When clients come into the clinic, our UK trained plastic surgeon with expert knowledge makes a full assessment.
The surgeon establishes reasons sought for surgery and what the client hopes to achieve as an end result.
As a part of the assessment process, the surgeon will establish the amount of available breast tissue & skin and the type of lift each individual patient would benefit from. For patients suffering from volume loss suitability for the implant is assessed.
Measurements are taken to provide a more specific approach to planning and surgery.
This helps us to provide a more scientific approach that can help the patients visualise the final effect.
It is important for the patient to be appropriately counselled to understand the whole process including surgery and recovery process after surgery.
Patients are given at least 2 weeks to make a considered decision and only once both patient and surgeons, are happy does the patient proceed to surgery.
What do patients see after a Breast Augmentation Mastopexy ?
Patients are put in a support bra immediately after surgery to help support the change.
As soon as they are comfortable, patients will be able to notice the change in shape. There will be some swelling but there should not be any pain.
Once ready, patients can go home with pre-booked follow up appointments.
What are the alternatives to a Breast Augmentation Mastopexy ?
Typically patients have had a child or children with breastfeeding (Late 20’s, early 30’s) or as they have got older noticed the droopiness (mid 40’s).
The volume in the breast is likely to be less than it used to be in a bra, and out of it, the breast looks hollower at the top of the breast, flatter down the main part of the breast and the nipple is nearer the bottom of the breast itself.

FAQs
Some patients may have padded bra’s and avoid situations where they may have to be naked.
Surgically, some patients may have tried thread lifts, similar to those used in the face but this tends to last for a few months and doesn’t deal with the lost volume.
For patients with very little droopiness but lost volume, some may be suitable for augmentation rather than a breast uplift.
If it’s a combination of volume loss and droopiness, those patients may be more suitable for an augmentation & mastopexy.
For those with good volume but more droopiness, a breast uplift is most likely to be a suitable option.
Depending on the amount of extra skin, different incisions can be used such as around the nipple only, the nipple and straight line down the breast or one that includes an incision under the breast.
