Breast Lift With Augmentation

Breast Lift With Augmentation (Implants) in San Diego

Have you noticed that your breasts have begun looking deflated? Perhaps you’ve considered a breast augmentation to restore lost fullness or a breast lift to reposition the breasts and nipples and remove excess skin. Did you know that many actually benefit most by combining these 2 popular procedures?

A breast lift with augmentation is one of our most popular procedures at LJCSC in San Diego, CA, and it’s easy to see why. By combining these 2 procedures, we can help improve 2 of the main concerns of women who’ve had children, lost a significant amount of weight, or are simply at the mercy of normal signs of aging: sagging skin and loss of breast fullness. By both lifting and reshaping the breasts and adding volume, a breast lift with augmentation can drastically improve the appearance of drooping or deflated breasts.

How Strattice™ Helps Us Get Better Results for More Patients

Pairing these procedures can make surgery more challenging for many patients with stretched, thin or weakened skin. These patients may have insufficient tissue to reinforce the bottom part of the breast following a lift. Without additional support, there is a greater chance that implants may bottom out or that sagging may recur. This is where Strattice comes into play.

Using Strattice in Breast Lift With Augmentation

Strattice Reconstructive Tissue Matrix is a tool we can use to reinforce existing weakened tissue for breast lift with augmentation patients. A soft, natural tissue support made from porcine dermis, Strattice comes in 3 Contour Shapes to accommodate a range of breast pockets for mastopexy augmentation cases.

During your procedure, your surgeon will make the incision type discussed in your consultation, and then attach the selected size of Strattice to the chest wall and pectoralis major muscle. This helps to reinforce the breast pocket and keep it in position. After this is finished, they then remove the excess breast tissue and lift the breasts into their perkier new position.
