What is a Breast Lift with Augmentation?

A breast lift (mastopexy) with augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances breast volume, shape, and symmetry while simultaneously lifting them into a higher, more youthful position. A breast lift alone removes excess skin and tightens tissue, but it does not add volume or significantly alter breast size. By combining it with breast augmentation, which is performed using implants or fat transfer, patients get the benefits of perkier breast contours with increased fullness in the upper pole.

Both a breast lift and breast augmentation are customizable and tailored to the patient’s unique goals and anatomy. A breast lift uses various incision techniques, chosen based on where the patient wants scarring and how much lift they want to achieve. Breast augmentation involves choosing several variables, including the implant type, size, shape, and placement.

You can learn more about how each procedure is performed alone on our breast lift and breast augmentation pages.

Combining My Breast Lift with Augmentation with Other Procedures

While breast lift with augmentation is inherently a combined procedure that delivers exceptional breast contouring results, many of Dr. Halani’s New York City patients combine it with additional procedures to address other cosmetic concerns and enhance their breasts.

Liposuction addresses post-pregnancy changes across the torso, so targeted liposuction of the flanks or bra line can refine the areas that frame the breasts. See our liposuction page for more information.

How to Begin Your Breast Lift with Augmentation Journey

A consultation with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sameer Halani in New York City will be the first step in your breast lift and augmentation journey. Throughout your conversations with Dr. Halani, it’s important to be honest about your objectives so he can design the surgery to meet them. Here is what to expect during your consultation.

  • Share your concerns, goals, and desired outcomes for your breasts
  • Dr. Halani will examine your breasts and take photos for reference
  • Dr. Halani will explain the procedure in detail and walk you through each variable, including the incision techniques and implant characteristics
  • You can try on implant sizers or use 3D imaging technology to see what you would look like after the procedure
  • Dr. Halani will ask about your medical history, health status, allergies, and medications you’re taking
  • If you and Dr. Halani agree that a breast lift with augmentation is the best path forward, he will develop a unique surgical plan based entirely around your objectives and unique anatomy

What to Expect on the Day of Breast Lift with Augmentation Surgery

The surgery will be at Dr. Halani’s surgical center in New York City. After you review your treatment plan and ask any remaining questions, you will be given general anesthesia, which will put you into a deep state of relaxation and controlled unconsciousness during surgery.

With the help of his experienced surgical team, Dr. Halani will first perform the breast lift by carefully creating incisions along lines marked with a surgical pen for complete precision. Excess skin and fat will be removed, and the surrounding breast tissue will be tightened and elevated. If the nipple needs to be repositioned and/or resized, Dr. Halani will move it into a more natural-looking position. He will continue the surgery with the breast augmentation, where he will create a pocket for the implant and close the incisions with sutures.

The entire surgery will take 2-4 hours to perform. You will wake up in a recovery room and be given time to adjust. Someone will need to pick you up because it will not be safe to drive yourself.

Breast Lift with Augmentation Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Breast Lift with Augmentation Care

Recovery from a breast lift with augmentation is similar to the recovery of receiving either procedure alone. You will experience some swelling and bruising, which will be most pronounced during the first few days to a week. Keep your incision sites clean and be gentle when bathing, avoiding harsh scrubbing. To minimize swelling, apply cold compresses on and off, and wear your compression bra at all times to prevent fluid buildup and keep your new implants and breast tissue in the proper position while healing.

Short walks are encouraged during the first few days to promote healthy blood flow, but you should not engage in rigorous exercise or activities for several weeks to a couple of months. Sleep on your back to avoid shifting or trauma to your implant pocket. Most New York City patients return to work by the end of the first week.

Take the prescribed pain medication to help you tolerate any discomfort you experience.

How Much Does a Breast Lift with Augmentation Cost in New York City?

The cost of a breast lift with augmentation in New York City depends on your individual goals, anatomy, and details of your surgical plan. Factors that influence cost include the location and type of incisions, whether the implants are silicone or saline, where the implants are placed relative to the muscle, the shape of the implants, and the surgeon’s expertise.

During your consultation, you’ll review all of these factors, along with any additional information that affects the price.
