When women get older, they may lose fullness in their breasts. Other women develop excess skin in their chest. Some women will experience both changes with sagging, deflated breasts. If you want to increase breast volume while also removing excess skin, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Glenn Lyle can perform a breast augmentation with a lift (mastopexy). Breast augmentation with a lift at Lyle Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Center in Raleigh, NC starts by removing loose skin from the breasts and then placing saline or silicone implants to get to your goal size. Breast surgery with a lift and augmentation addresses several features of the breasts, including size, shape, and position to give you younger, perkier-looking breasts. Schedule an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Lyle to go over your specific needs, so he can help you determine if a breast augmentation with a lift is best for your goals.
Ideal Candidates
There are many factors to warrant a breast surgery combining a lift with augmentation. It is a ideal choice if you want to significantly transform your breasts while improving the firmness of your breast skin. You may have developed breast ptosis (sagging) due to aging, significant weight loss, or pregnancy, but may also want to increase the volume of your breasts — both can be addressed with an augmentation and lift combined. Dr. Lyle can usually assess whether a breast lift by itself can achieve your best results or if both procedures are needed to reach your overall desired look.
Surgical Technique
Breast augmentation with a lift is commonly performed as an outpatient procedure and you will be sedated with general anesthesia. In most cases, the lift portion of the surgery is done first. Any loose skin is eliminated and the soft tissue is tightened. Dr. Lyle will explain breast implant options with you before the surgery so the selected implant can be easily placed. For some patients, the nipple-areola complex will need to be repositioned to match your new breast size and shape.
What to Expect
The recovery timeframe for an augmentation with a lift will vary for every patient, but you should be healed enough to get back to your everyday activities in about a week. However, you should refrain from any exercise or strenuous activity for at least 2 – 6 weeks. There can also be mild to moderate swelling following the procedure that can last for 2 – 3 weeks. Your implants will begin to settle into their final position after several months where then you should be able to enjoy your outcome.
Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics Center Reviews
From the moment we met Dr. Lyle, we knew we had chosen the perfect doctor to perform my daughter’s breast reduction. The entire office and surgical staff was kind and welcoming and calmed her nerves. My daughter absolutely loved Brittany (Dr. Lyle’s nurse) and Haley (Dr. Lyle’s physician assistant). We had a phenomenal experience her day of surgery. As a nurse mom, my standards are high. I felt incredibly comfortable knowing she was in the capable hands of an experienced nurse anesthetist doing her anesthesia (thank you Claire) Dr. Lyle’s has been practicing for nearly 30 years. His experience and expertise put me at ease. He is a true artist. My daughter’s surgery went smoothly and she was absolutely thrilled with her results. Dr. Lyle and his team gave her the gift of self confidence and I cannot thank them enough!
I have, literally, always been self-conscious about the shape of my breasts. Over the years, this got so bad that I started avoiding mirrors when changing, and I truly believed there was nothing that could be done. But, this past August I worked up the courage to speak with a plastic surgeon. After reading his other reviews and looking at his gallery online, I decided to speak with Dr. Lyle in person. It was the best decision I ever made for my self-esteem. Every single person I've had the pleasure of meeting at his office has been an absolute joy. From the cheerful reception staff, to the nurses, to the scheduling team, I was completely at ease and knew I was in good hands. My surgery turned out even better than I'd hoped, and I cannot adequately describe how much this changed my life. If you are thinking about having a breast lift, please give the team a call. And thank you to everyone at the office who gave me back a part of myself I thought I'd lost.
My case was a little different. Had previous implants that were placed under the muscle as most are. Due to the healing of my body and the fact that I didn’t want a lift, I was left looking disfigured. Saw Dr. Lyle and was scheduled fairly quickly. I was super nervous as the old implants had to be removed and a new put in. This experience was far superior to three years ago mainly due to the exceptional staff. But major kudos to Dr. Lyle for making my new breast look natural and absolutely perfect (my husband is over the moon!). This surgery was not only something that was aesthetic for me. Being newly married, there was a lot of emotional/mental components to it as well. Couldn’t be happier. And Brittany, his nurse, is far superior to the nurses I had before. To top it off, at my post op visit, Stephanie did some Juvaderm in my lips and they look fabulously natural. Highly recommend ALL of the providers!
I am very grateful to Dr Lyle and his staff for amazing results and I highly recommend this practice.
Haley is an incredible provider! She is diligent, detail-oriented, and punctual. She takes the time to get to know her patients and provide them with amazing results. She did my botox before my wedding and made sure it was perfect. I drive 1.5 hours to see her because she's so wonderful. I couldn't recommend her enough!
