Breasts can sag and lose their shape for many reasons, including aging, pregnancy, and weight gain or loss. A breast lift combined with breast augmentation can create a lifted, shapely breast.

Before a breast lift with breast augmentation is performed at our Birmingham, Alabama area cosmetic surgery center, patients undergo an extensive consultation. During this consultation, a variety of information will be gathered including medical history and the patient's desired surgical outcome. From this information, cosmetic surgeon Dr. Peter Van Hoy will determine the size and shape of the breast implant and the best techniques to use during the breast lift with breast augmentation surgery. During this consultation, patients are informed of the risks involved and the healing process.

The breast lift with breast augmentation procedure is usually an outpatient procedure performed using anesthesia. During the breast lift with breast augmentation procedure, Birmingham, Alabama area cosmetic surgeon Dr. Peter Van Hoy will remove excess breast tissue, place the breast implant either below the breast tissue or below the pectoral muscle, properly place the nipple and areola, then stitch the breast area. Once swelling subsides, any residual asymmetry can be corrected with additional minimal surgery.
