Breast Augmentation Mastopexy, also known as a breast lift with implants is an operation in which breasts are lifted to a higher position on the chest wall while simultaneously improving breasts’ volume and shape. This combined procedure is required when breasts are small and show drooping behavior. Breast augmentation mastopexy is in high demand than single procedures.
Breast surgery is one of the effective treatment options to consider for breast cancer when all other treatments, such as medications and chemotherapy, have failed. During this process, the healthcare provider removes cancer-affected areas of the breast and keeps the remaining portion intact. However, it may change the look and contour of the breast: so the doctor may choose oncoplastic breast surgery to maintain the breast’s appearance with the patient’s health.
Oncoplastic breast surgery is a combination of cancer treatment surgery and cosmetic surgery to reconstruct the breast and restore its appearance. In this process, the doctor removes cancer-affected breast tissues, and the plastic surgeon or oncoplastic surgeon performs additional operations to deal with the deformities caused during the surgery. This may involve performing surgeries on both breasts to make them look similar.
Combining reconstruction with treatment surgeries reduces the need for undergoing multiple operative procedures. The patient will have one recovery period that implies fewer interruptions in her life. Operating with reconstruction can help healthcare providers eliminate tissues surrounding the cancer area, which may help in removing a complete tumour.
Before oncoplastic breast surgery, patients can discuss reconstruction options with doctors. They will know what the procedure involves, how doctors will remove lumps and how it will affect the breast’s look. Once these questions are sorted, patients will better understand how to manage the reconstruction.
Patients with deflated breasts due to the aging process or pregnancy are recommended to undergo this combined procedure Breast Augmentation Mastopexy. In some cases, patients are treated with the breast implant alone. While some patients are good candidates for a breast lift alone.
In this combined procedure, the breasts are lifted and enlarged. The breasts are enlarged by placing various types of implants into the breast. These implants include:
Round, smooth-walled silicone implants provide a softer and more natural feel to the patients.
These implants were used when the silicone implants were unavailable. The saline implants are less expensive and can be placed through a small incision.
Teardrop implants were expensive and used earlier in the past. But now, round-shaped implants are used for cosmetic mastopexy.
Textured implants are not used due to their long-term safety issues, hence in place of them, smooth walled implants are used.
The profile means how tall the implant is relative to the base size. The surgeons will decide the profile based on the patient’s conditions.
When the breast lift does not give the desired look, then the surgeons recommend breast lift surgery or augmentation mastopexy surgery. In this surgery, the surgeons will improve the size and shape of the breasts using implants. This procedure is recommended when the patient is having:
Risks associated with this combined procedure include:
Besides these surgery risks, there are some risks with implants also. These include:
