Breast Lift with Implants

A Breast Lift with Implants helps increase the size of the breasts, while at the same time improves the position of the breast in a single surgery procedure. This two in one procedure will help reduce the discomfort and downtime involved for multiple surgical procedures.

Before the procedure, a general anaesthetic will be administered.

The breast lift with implants is usually performed by placing the implant beneath the pectoral muscle (thick, fan-shaped muscle under the breast) while the breast is lifted by raising the nipple and tightening the breast tissue underneath. These are performed to reposition the nipple and correct the slackness. Of course, each surgeon may have a different procedure for different patients.

The skin around and below the nipple may be removed before tightening the tissues of the breast. After which, the skin will be stitched. The wound will be closed using dissolving sutures and covered with a surgical tape.

Risks and Complications

These are rare and often only temporary, however, they may include:

  • Bleeding
  • Infection
  • Implant rippling
  • Capsular contracture
  • Rupture
  • Loss of nipple sensation
Q. What will I expect during recovery after a breast lift with implants be?

A. Recovery time varies, it can take 3 days where one may feel some tightness and pressure, as well as burning. For those who had children, they may feel heavy on the breast that seems like it’s full of milk after childbirth.

Q. What do I need to prevent doing before and after the surgery?

A. Refrain from smoking at least two weeks before and two weeks after the surgery. Better still, refrain from smoking permanently!

Q. Can I still breastfeed after the breast lift with implants surgery?

A. Maybe. There is very small chance of losing the ability to breastfeed after the surgery because the dissection is far from the citiferous duct (mammary gland that carries milk to the nipple).

Breast Lift Advantages – A Longer, Leaner Looking Torso with Dr Nick Moncrieff Breast Lift Advantages – A Longer, Leaner Looking Torso with Dr Nick Moncrieff July 18, 2022 - With Hunter Plastic Surgery’s Dr Moncrieff There are MANY Breast Lift Advantages and Benefits. One specific advantage to a breast lift and breast reduction is the elongating effect it has on the appearance of your waist and torso. As Dr Nicholas Moncrieff from Hunter Plastic Surgery knows after thousands of breast surgeries, there are so many advantages and benefits from breast lift surgery – some that you may not have considered. Over time, our breasts undergo many changes in response to factors such as genetics, pregnancy, nursing, weight loss, or lack of skin elasticity that comes with sun damage and the ageing process. Lax breasts hanging down the abdomen tends to cover the torso and make a woman look older and heavier than she actually is. A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a procedure that raises and reshapes lax breasts. It can provide a more youthful appearance, reduce discomfort and rashes, and increase self-esteem and confidence. Not only do your breasts appear younger, lifted and more attractive, but the torso can also appear more elongated, slimmer and more feminine! JUST WANT A LIFT? For those who are happy with the size and volume of their breasts and perhaps just want them to be […]

Dedicated to his patients, Sydney-based Dr Pouria Moradi places an emphasis on finding the best surgical solution for you and will direct his strong academic and clinical background to help you understand what can be accomplished – for you – through surgery.

Any woman who has excessive skin or drooping breasts is a candidate for a breast lift and implants, according to Dr Moradi. Also known as a breast augmentation mastopexy, this procedure has the combined benefits of […]
Inframammary Fold What is the Inframammary Fold, and how does it affect breast surgery? with Dr Miroshnik January 9, 2022 - So, what is the Inframammary Fold (IMF), and how does it affect breast surgery? You may or may not have heard of the inframammary fold but it plays a big part in any type of breast surgery. It is considered one of the most important aspects to the aesthetic appearance of the breast. You also may or may not be aware of the terms “upper pole” and “lower pole” which refer to the fullness of the upper or lower breast and is largely affected by the positioning of the inframammary fold. Dr Michael Miroshnik, Plastic Surgeon based in Sydney NSW took time out of his day to help us understand what these terms mean, why your surgeon should be talking about them with you at your consultation and how they affect what your final breast surgery results will be. The Inframammary Fold (IMF) Dr Miroshnik says the IMF is always on the agenda at every industry breast meeting including the Breast Masters Symposium held at the end of 2018. “The inframammary fold is always a big topic because it defines the lower pole of the breast and we all know any problems will involve the inframammary fold in one way […]
Combining Procedures - Yvonne's Excess Skin Removal Dr Matthew Peters Massive Weight Loss and Skin Reduction – Yvonne’s Story December 10, 2021 - Yvonne’s excess skin removal – She had tried to lose weight for years and finally had gastric sleeve surgery which enabled her to lose a massive amount of weight. She then had several excess skin removal procedures with Dr Matthew Peters, Plastic Surgeon from Valley Plastic Surgery in Brisbane, QLD. Yvonne says her journey has saved her life and given her renewed energy to spend with her grandchildren. This is an inspiring patient story.
Jess’ Patient Story – Body Lift & Breast Surgery after Massive Weight Loss November 18, 2021 - Patient Story – Body Lift & Breast Surgery after Massive Weight Loss Before I had my Gastric Sleeve surgery in 2011, I asked the opinions of friends and family. What did they think of the surgery, would it help me, was it appropriate for me, could I do something so drastic, could I lose weight, could I stick to a healthy diet? I genuinely wanted to know what the people I cared about most thought about my future. After careful research, most of them were really positive and encouraging. Some told me that I was a cheater, and that I was taking the easy way out. I didn’t listen to those negative and nasty people. If they preferred me sick or dead because of my weight than me having surgery to help myself, then there was no longer room for them in my life. You find out who your real friends are when you are going through a tough time. As hard as it is, it’s best to wipe these people from your life. A lion doesn’t lose sleep over the opinions of sheep. If I had listened to those people and what they wanted, I would still be morbidly […]
Breast Asymmetry Breast Asymmetry with Dr Jeremy Hunt – Different Sized Breasts? October 6, 2021 - There’s lots of attention on making breasts bigger with augmentation or making them smaller with a reduction, but there’s many women who’d settle for just having their breasts the same size. Whether it’s because of breast feeding, or they might have always been lopsided, having uneven breasts can be a cause of embarrassment and have many side effects such as insecurity in the bedroom. Dr Jeremy Hunt, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon based in Edgecliff NSW performs loads of breast procedures each year to even up asymmetrical breasts and talks to us about what’s involved. Why are some boobs and nipples different sizes? Firstly, it is estimated that over half the women around the world have asymmetrical or uneven boobs or nipples. So, you’re in good company! It’s perfectly normal and most humans have some sort of body asymmetry whether it’s unmatching fingers, toes, boobs or anything else. So most of the time the cause of asymmetry is just nature. Sometimes it may become more pronounced or obvious with hormonal changes during puberty, breastfeeding, because of benign lumps or even breast cancer. Don’t be alarmed by this last one though, as the majority of women just have uneven boobs and nipples […]
Body Contouring Surgery Options with Dr Mark Hanikeri WA July 6, 2021 - Your Body Contouring Options with Dr Mark Hanikeri WA Plastic Surgeon Since the start of time, looking beautiful has been a desire of the people irrespective of culture, creed, area and status. To fulfil the desire to look beautiful, different products, cosmetics and surgical methods have been introduced all over the world.

More importantly, if there is loose muscle underneath the skin, this is tightened to give a firmer, smaller waist. It is an anesthetic based […]
Leannes Multiple Procedures Leanne’s Multiple Procedures with Dr Gavin Sandercoe May 17, 2021 - Leanne’s Multiple Procedures Leanne has had a bit of a journey when it comes to the procedures she needed after massive weight loss and had her first surgery in May 2018 where she had a breast lift and inner thigh lift. Then in August had a lower back lift and outer thighs, followed by an abdominoplasty with muscle repair and fat grafting to her breasts and under her eyes in November, all in the same year! It wasn’t over though, because Leanne had a revision surgery on her back lift earlier this year! But it’s all been worth it though because Leanne’s multiple procedures look fantastic, and is super happy with her results from Specialist Plastic Surgeon Dr Gavin Sandercoe, who Leanne says helped her every step of the way to get the great results she has. We absolutely loved chatting to her about her surgeries. Leanne was extremely open and generous with her time – you’ll love this podcast.
Rachael's Mummy Makeover Rachael’s Mummy Makeover with Dr Nicholas Moncrieff – a Life Changing Journey May 2, 2021 - I struggle to put into words my experience with the team at HPS and Dr Nicholas Moncrieff, from the very beginning when I made the first contact to now, 4 months post op they have been beyond incredible. I had lost over 40 kilos and was ready to take the next step and explore my surgical options but after two consults with different surgeons in Sydney it felt like it was unachieveable. I walked out of those consults feeling extremely down and had little hope. My friend who had been following Dr Moncrieff’s work suggested I book in to see him and wow am I grateful that I did. I first saw the practice manager Jess and had some pics taken, she immediately made me feel like I wasn’t just a number and that I would definitely be taken care of, then came my appointment with Dr Moncrieff and much to my surprise he was the same, made me feel incredibly comfortable, valued but most of all he listened, he listened to everything I said, he answered my questions and left no stone unturned! I wasted no time and booked my surgery straight away! The lead up was great I […]
Jenna's Breast Augmentation Dr Craig Rubinstein Breast Augmentation Results – Jenna’s Patient Story April 14, 2021 - Dr Craig Rubinstein Breast Augmentation with a Lift results Patient Story – Breast Lift with Implants! Just recently we chatted to the remarkable Jenna, and we’re so excited to share her story with you. When Jenna was 22 she lost 35kg over a period of around 8 months. She was exercising and eating better than she had in years. But, even though she had always had naturally big breasts (GGG), when she lost the weight, her breasts went down 5 to 6 cup sizes! This was when Jenna decided she needed a breast lift and implants. She was 175cm tall and 69kgs. That was July last year (2016) and she is now loving her beautiful new boobs. Jenna tells us with confidence that the most important thing she did when planning her procedure was choose the right surgeon. Jenna had her procedure done with Dr Craig Rubinstein from Coco Ruby Plastic Surgery, although she says Dr Rubinstein wasn’t the first surgeon she consulted with. “I met with another surgeon and wasn’t really happy with him. He didn’t really tell me much and it felt kind of rushed. I must have only been in there for 20 – 25 minutes. I […]
Dr Patrick Briggs Post Pregnancy Mummy Makeover with Dr Patrick Briggs – I want my body back! February 9, 2021 - Many Mothers have said “I want my body back” after pregnancy, childbirth and breast feeding Pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding are usually a wonderful time for a woman. It fulfils her biological drive and the strength of emotions experienced helps confirm her biological identity. The anticipation of pregnancy leads to the joy of childbirth and continues with the incredible feeling of bonding while breastfeeding. For most women this time in their life is one that they remember fondly. Psychologically these powerful feelings of caring for a helpless, joyful and beautiful being offset the changes that may have occurred in the biological journey. I am often asked by women who have not yet had children what will happen to their bodies after the sequence of pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding. Unfortunately this is an almost impossible question to answer, for not only does the individuality of genetics play a very significant role but also other factors will add or detract from the eventual outcome. Some women only have one pregnancy, “carry small” during pregnancy and do not breastfeed. Clearly the physical changes of such an individual will be entirely different from a woman who has multiple pregnancies, tend to make a lot of […]
Surgery Post Weight Loss Dr Rohit Kumar – Breast & Body Surgery Post Weight Loss December 14, 2020 - If you have made a concerted effort to lose a lot of excess weight – then firstly congratulate yourself. Losing weight that is, or can effect your health is a great first step in achieving wellbeing, both physically and mentally. Unfortunately, as many people who have achieved massive weight loss will tell you; there can be another hurdle to overcome to really start feeling good about yourself – and that often includes addressing excess skin caused by massive weight loss. While no two people are alike after losing a dramatic amount of weight, Dr Rohit Kumar will design a surgical plan that will be tailored to you, and your exact needs. As with any plastic surgery, the final results will reflect your individual body, prior to any surgery. Plastic surgery after extreme weight loss is both reconstructive and aesthetic. Excess skin after weight loss can cause anything from mild irritation, to infections, so post-weight loss surgery can be beneficial for both your physical and mental wellbeing. A typical plastic surgery strategy after extreme weight loss would generally include a breast and body lift. This surgery can help to remove the extra skin and improve the shape and tone of your […]

Minimising Surgical Scars Minimising Surgical Scars with Dr Matthew Peters November 22, 2020 - How we scar after surgery varies widely from person to person. For one person who may have a surgical procedure, they can have virtually no scarring, while another person may have a more notable amount of scarring. Whenever the skin sustains damage, there is the possibility of scarring. But if you are having surgery, and your surgeon is highly skilled in their field such as Dr Matthew Peters, the outcomes can be aesthetically that much better than undergoing surgery performed by a less skilled surgeon. According to Dr Matthew Peters, “Producing the best possible scarring is a result of joint considerations, from a surgical perspective during the procedure, and patient factors.” Dr Peters further explains, “Surgeon factors include scar placement and gentle handling of tissue to minimise additional trauma. For patients, nutrition, activity modification, and following the advice provided by your Specialist Plastic Surgeon are the best ways to support healing and optimal scar development.” Below Is an Outline Of Some Suggestions to Ensure a Visually Minimal Scar as Possible from Surgery: Choose a highly qualified Specialist Plastic Surgeon such as Dr Matthew Peters if you are undergoing surgery – this especially applies if your surgery is elective. Know your Risk […]
A Range of Breast Procedures with Dr Mark Gianoutsos A Range of Breast Procedures with Dr Mark Gianoutsos October 22, 2020 - Dr Mark Gianoutsos is one of Australia’s most highly regarded specialist plastic surgeons. Dr Gianoutsos’ qualifications are too long to list here; but suffice to say he is an Examiner in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery for the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons from 2011 and Deputy Senior Examiner in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Royal Australasian College of Surgeons from 2017. The philosophy of Mark Gianoutsos’ practice is always to treat patients as they would wish to be treated themselves. That is, with expertise, care, professionalism, respect and discretion. It is important that a patient knows that he or she is going to be treated as a unique individual by the surgeon and all members of his team. Breast Procedures with Dr Mark Gianoutsos The aim of any breast procedure is to give a woman’s body better balance and proportion and to feel confident and happy with your choice and your body. Any breast procedure aims to give a better overall proportion to the body, but to also provide a better balance and contour to the breasts themselves. Types of Breast Surgery with Dr Mark Gianoutsos Breast procedures must be carefully tailored to individual wishes, as well as breast and body […]
Breast Lift with Implants Procedure with Dr Rohit Kumar Breast Lift with Implants Procedure with Dr Rohit Kumar October 21, 2020 - Dr Kumar uses the latest and most state-of-the-art implants and techniques to enhance and complement each individual patient’s overall figure. This approach to any type of breast augmentation surgery delivers the most natural result possible. Whatever breast enhancement surgery you decide is right for you, Dr Kumar will plan a bespoke operation that is perfectly designed to you and your expectations. Why Choose Breast Implants with a Lift? With this procedure, breasts are rejuvenated, reshaped and lifted to a more youthful position. The volume of the breasts is increased with the addition of well-chosen cohesive silicone gel implants. The latest VECTRA 3D imaging software allows Dr Kumar to simulate your breast lift procedure by showing the lift procedure and adding different sized implants. This will help you decide whether you want an implant with your breast lift procedure or whether you are happy with a beast lift alone in achieving the exact breast shape and size you desire. Are both procedures done at the same operation or are they done in stages? While it is possible to do both procedures at the same time, Dr Kumar prefers to do the operations separately. The first procedure being the breast lift and […]
Breast Implant or Breast Lift How do you know if you need Breast Implants or Breast Lift? August 6, 2020 - At Valley Plastic Surgery many patients present for breast enhancement – but many women are also unsure if what they want are breast implants or if they require a lift (mastopexy) procedure, with or without implants. So how do you know if you need breast implants or breast lift? To be entirely sure, a complete assessment by a fully qualified plastic surgeon such as Dr Raymond Goh, based at Valley Plastic Surgery, who is highly experienced in breast enhancement surgery is necessary. However, there are a few tips that patients can apply to get a fairly close idea as to which procedure is required to give them the result they are looking for. The Easy, “Look in the Mirror” Assessment Patients can gain a quick assessment just by looking at the mirror (with arms down by your side) or at photographs taken of them. Try to avoid ‘selfies’ of breasts as these are often taken at incorrect angles and distances, rendering them distorted and inaccurate. When you look at the mirror, make a note of where your inframammary fold or breast crease is – this is simply the place where the breast and the chest meet. The folds on each side […]
psychological benefits of surgery The Potential Psychological Benefits of Plastic Surgery August 5, 2020 - So, you’re thinking of surgery. Perhaps rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, a facelift, or any other surgery that you choose with the desired outcome of looking better. But what you may or may not realise is the likelihood that you will not only look better, you can potentially feel better about yourself after surgery. We take a look at the potential of psychological benefits of surgery. An in-depth study published by APS (Association for Psychological Science) titled the Psychological Effects of Aesthetic Surgery revealed that there are indeed many potential positive psychological benefits under-going aesthetic surgery. While these benefits are likely, they come with a few caveats, such as the expectations you would have in relation to the outcomes of your surgery. Some of the wide range of benefits identified for those that undergo an elective surgery to address aesthetic concerns include the more obvious benefits, such as an increase in self-esteem and confidence that aesthetic surgery can give you. Some of the other cited benefits vary across a wide range of outcomes, though they are primarily, positive psychologically. These outcomes can include a decrease in social anxiety, a lessening of feelings of depression, an increase in goal attainment, a general sense […]
Bespoke Mummy Makeover The Mummy Makeover Package – Breast & Tummy Surgery with Dr Craig Layt August 5, 2020 - Mummy Makeover Package with Dr Layt Talking about the bespoke mummy makeover package, Dr Craig Layt is an Australian plastic surgeon who has done the ‘mummy makeover’ procedure on hundreds of patients. Based on the Gold Coast, Dr Layt is highly credentialed in all areas of Plastic, Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgery and is dedicated to the highest standard of patient care and the achievement of excellent results. The ‘Mummy Makeover’ is a term that has been widely used throughout plastic surgery and media circles referring to combined surgical treatments for women after having children, most often focused on restoring the breasts and abdomen following pregnancy and breastfeeding. The Effects of Childbearing on the Body Pregnancy and breastfeeding can stretch the skin of the abdomen and the breasts causing laxity of skin. Sometimes the abdominal muscle also suffers from ‘separation’. Breastfeeding can also result in a ‘deflated’ appearance of the breasts. Some mothers may experience an enlargement and saggy appearance of the breast tissue after child rearing, with the nipple placed significantly lower and pointing downwards. Some women may also wish to add liposuction to their thighs or ‘love handles’ as part of their Mummy Makeover. Other mothers may also wish […]

Rise in Plastic Surgery Procedures in Australia Dr Craig Rubinstein Confirms Rise in Plastic Surgery Procedures in Australia July 23, 2020 - According to a television interview aired on Channel 7 earlier this week with Specialist Plastic Surgeon Dr Craig Rubinstein, enquiries for cosmetic surgery have tripled since March this year. This phenomenon has been covered in recent articles here on Plastic Surgery Hub – and it was only confirmed further in Channel Seven’s interview with Dr Rubinstein. Dr Craig Rubinstein confirms rise in plastic surgery procedures in Australia. According to Dr Rubinstein’s comments on the television show, he believes it is a combination of a lot more people working from home, less social time and for those that are looking to improve their bodies, the closures of many gyms was a factor. The ‘Zoom’ Factor Now of course, for many of millions of remote workers, there is also the ‘Zoom factor’. Those of us who are working from home are increasingly seeing ourselves reflected back on our Zoom cameras – and for many of us, we’re not 100 percent happy with what we see. Dr Rubinstein said that for his practice, it is eyelid surgery, nose surgery and facelifts that were the most popular queries. “Patients aren’t spending money on holidays or going out – and if they are now working […]
I need a boob job, can Medicare help? I need a boob job, can Medicare help? – Medicare for Breast Surgery February 27, 2020 - I need a boob job, can Medicare Help? If you are considering a breast surgery this is something you may be interested to know; many cosmetic procedures (in which some breast procedures are included) have a Medicare rebate when performed by a specialist Plastic surgeon. Even if you don’t have private health insurance the Medicare rebate may be available to you if you meet the criteria and when the breast procedure is performed by a Specialist Plastic Surgeon. Breast Augmentation is mostly NOT covered by Medicare except in very specific circumstances like congenital deformities (some tuberous or asymmetric breasts) or some reconstruction after cancer. A Boob Job may be covered by Medicare when it is part of a reconstruction after a mastectomy or other breast cancer treatments. Minor Medicare rebates may in a few cases be available if you have recurring health issues because of the size, position or skin condition of your breasts. So, the popular question of “I need a boob job, can Medicare help?” might not necessarily have the answer that you want. But not all procedures are covered by a Medicare rebate for example if you are looking for a breast augmentation for purely aesthetic or cosmetic […]

The Mummy Makeover – Carley’s Journey September 2, 2019 - Carley is a mum of 3, nurse and self-described “wellness junkie” based in Newcastle. After losing almost half her body weight, she did her research and chose to see Dr Nick Moncrieff from Hunter Plastic Surgery in Newcastle to talk about her surgical options. Now 9 months after her mummy makeover, Carley hasn’t looked back and even had her “model for a day” experience at the recent Hunter Plastic Surgery (HPS) patient journey photo shoot. And she looks amazing! We asked Carley some questions about her journey. Why did you consider surgery? After losing 68kg over 2 years, I was obviously happy to have the weight off, but really didn’t like the way my body looked. I still didn’t feel comfortable in clothes and found shopping difficult. It definitely had an impact on my family and I just wasn’t being the active mum I wanted to be for my kids. How was your experience with Hunter Plastic Surgery? From the first time calling I was made to feel welcomed by Kylie she was kind, friendly, knowledgeable and explained how the appointment worked and booked me in to see Jess for a Vectra surgery simulation. When I first walked in I […]
Breast Lift Enough What is a breast lift? When is just a lift enough? July 31, 2019 - Breast lift surgery is a procedure to lift sagging or drooping breasts. Also known as a mastopexy, a breast lift is able to create firmer, more supported breasts. Dr Isolde Hertess from Cairns Plastic Surgery says breasts lifts are common for women after pregnancy and breastfeeding, following massive weight loss, or to bring the breasts back to a more youthful position due to gravity and ageing. Dr Hertess shares some of her before and afters with us and talks about what’s involved in the breast lift surgery. What does breast lift surgery involve? Dr Hertess explains what the breast lift surgery involves. “During the procedure, excess skin and tissue are trimmed away and the breasts are tightened and lifted. The nipples may be repositioned to create the most natural-looking results. Breast lift surgery is not designed to change the size of the breasts; rather, it is to correct their position and create a higher and perkier bust line. An aesthetically pleasing bust line is not always about size – repositioning the breasts through a lift can improve the contour of the bust line, resulting in a more youthful look and boosted confidence.” There are several benefits to a breast lift […]

Combining Procedures Sharni’s breast reduction and lift, belt lipectomy and mons lift with Dr Matthew Peters April 1, 2019 - My weight loss journey started January 4th, 2017. For the first time in as long as I can remember I stood on the scales. A whopping 98.7kgs was staring me in the eyes. I was distraught, but knew I had to change. I began eating healthier and exercising daily, but the weight wouldn’t budge. Something more drastic had to be done, and I underwent my first life altering experience weight loss surgery. It was a hard battle, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. I triumphed with a loss of 45kgs in just over a year. I was left with redundant skin and large severely sagging breasts.

causes of sagging breasts What Causes Sagging Breasts and How to Prevent Breast Sag March 27, 2019 - Firm and perky breasts are often seen as a symbol of youth for women of all ages. This can mean that seeing even the slightest amount of sagging in breast tissue can lead to a fair bit of emotional distress and frustration. Understanding some of the causes of sagging breasts can help women to maintain their firm breast tissue and a youthful silhouette. Fighting nature and the aging process As women go through each stage of life, it’s quite natural for her to experience changes to her breasts. Breasts can grow larger during pregnancy and breastfeeding, which can lead to the skin and breast tissues stretching and loosening. After pregnancy and breastfeeding, the skin is going to remain stretched and loosened. The thinning of skin, including the skin on the chest, is a natural part of the aging process. It happens due to a loss of collagen and elastin, which does often happen as women approach menopause. It’s also important to note that larger breasts are much more likely to be impacted by the effects of gravity. While you can’t stop the aging process, there are some steps that can be taken to help slow the process down and keep […]
