Combined Breast Augmentation/Breast Lift

While implants provide the breasts with a small degree of lift, because the breasts, like the rest of the body, are subject to the effects of gravity and aging that continue to take place over time, women who have undergone breast augmentation surgery may eventually desire a breast lift to restore a firmer, youthful appearance to breasts that have begun to sag.

For women who desire both lift and added volume, ACPS board-certified surgeons provide combined breast enlargement and breast lift surgery in an innovative procedure they developed called the Delay Implant Fill Technique. In this procedure, the breasts are given a lifted, firmer look, and saline implants are placed unfilled in the breast pockets. Two weeks later, the implants are filled with saline in a quick office that requires the use of local anesthesia only.

By staging the two procedures in this way, ACPS surgeon greatly improved the success rate of this traditionally difficult procedure combination. The delayed filling of the implants allows the breast tissues to adjust to the surgical manipulation that is necessary to achieve both lift and volume and also allows optimal circulation of the breast tissues to take place before augmentation is performed.
