Breast Implants with Lift 

       The breasts go through many changes during a lifetime. With aging, gravity causes them to droop. Also, having children can cause them to deflate. Finally, many people lose weight which can also cause a flat appearance. For these patients, breast implants combined with a lift, or mastopexy, may be the best procedure for them.

       Dr. Cuber has a large amount of experience with this procedure, and over the last 12 years, has worked to individualize his approach to each patient, because each patient needs a different amount of lifting. He will personally examine you and discuss what type of implants and breast lift incision is best for you.

 
       Generally, the implant cannot be too large because it will be hard to close the breast lift incisions. The implant simply gives back some of the fullness in the upper breast that has been lost. The breast lift incisions are divided into three types:

    1. Periareolar (around the nipple) for minimal sagging

    2. Circumveritcal or lollipop (around the nipple with a vertical extension) for moderate sagging

    3. Inverted T or anchor incision
          (around the nipple with a vertical extension plus horizontal extension) for severe sagging

Dr. Cuber always tries to make the smallest incision possible, but sometimes the larger incisions are needed to get the best possible result. Let's look at some examples:

Patient 1: This patient has severe sagging (ptosis) of the breasts with loss of fullness in the upper breasts. She underwent breast augmentation with inverted T incision mastopexy and had a nice improvement.
Patient 2: This patient also had severe sagging (ptosis) of the breast with loss of fullness in the upper breast. She underwent breast augmentation with inverted T incision mastopexy with a great improvement.
