Breast Lift w/ Auto-Augmentation

Lake Mary Breast Lift
with Auto-Augmentation
(Mastopexy with Autoaugmentation)

Lake Mary Plastic Surgery

Over time, a woman’s breasts often lose their youthful shape and firmness along with skin elasticity. These changes can result from: Pregnancy, Breastfeeding, Weight fluctuations, Aging, and Genetics. Some times women will decide against breast augmentation because of their lack of interest in breast implants. What many women don't know is that breast augmentation can include using one's own tissue to boost volume while lifting breast tissue. The specific procedure that does just that is called an auto-augmentation breast lift surgery.

Breast Lift with Autoaugmentation (18+ to view)

Breast Lift with Autoaugmentation surgery involves removing excess skin and tightening and reshaping and repositioning the surrounding tissue to reshape, raise, and firm the breast to provide more upper pole fullness without the use of implants.

What breast lifts alone don’t do…
Mastopexy surgery will not significantly change the size of your breasts or round out the upper part of your breast. If you want fuller breasts, consider mastopexy combined with autoaugmentation surgery. If you want smaller breasts, consider combining breast lift and breast reduction surgery.

Is Mastopexy with autoaugmentation right for me?
Breast lift with autoaugmentation surgery is a highly individualized procedure and is a personal decision.
A breast lift with autoaugmentation may be right for you if:

• You are physically healthy and weight stable
• You do not smoke
• Your expectations are realistic
• You feel that your breasts sag or have lost shape and volume
• Your nipples and areolas point downward
