Combine the best of both worlds
In case of deflated and droopy breasts, you may not have sufficient volume for only a breast lift and you may have too ptotic breasts for a simple breast augmentation. In that case, you may be a good candidate to combine the strengths of a breast lift with the advantages of a breast implant. This is called a Mastopexy-Augmentation or a breast lift with implants.
The Brussels cocktail in mastopexy-augmentation
Similar to a breast augmentation, the Ogeeplast Clinic offers a unique approach when a breast implant is combined with a breast lift.
In case of droopy breasts, it is crucial to limit the amount of extra weight when choosing an implant. That is why a B-Lite or light-weight implant is the ideal choice, as you may benefit from the additional volume and projection of an implant, without the extra weight of a classic implant. Not only will your breasts feel lighter, but they will age better as well.
The implant is usually placed in a pre-pectoral position, which means in front of the muscle. This not only makes the recovery almost painless, but it also gives a more natural result on the long-term.
The state-of-the-art poly-urethane implant shell ensures the best integration between the implant and surrounding breast tissues. This gives you the stability that you need and will help to maintain a lifted appearance of the breasts on the long term.
Finally, fat grafting is seen as “liquid gold” as it helps to smoothen the edges, correct any asymmetries, fill up the cleavage, and soften the contours.
A patient-tailored approach
As in every procedure, the surgeons at the Ogeeplast Clinic will set up a personalised and individual surgical plan that will fit your wishes and expectations. During the consultation, several aspects of the procedure will be discussed:
- The need for a breast implant
- The ideal size and volume of the breast implant
- The shape of the breast implant
- The necessary incisions
Depending on the clinical examination, your surgical goals, and the expertise of our surgeons, the final surgical plan will be tailored to your specific body.
Benefits and recovery period
A Mastopexy-augmentation is the ideal procedure if you wish to rejuvenate your breasts and add more volume and projection, usually more than 1 cup size. By offering the latest techniques of breast lift and breast implants, the recovery is usually very smooth and almost pain-free. A breast augmentation-mastopexy has a downtime of 1 to 2 weeks with easy wound care. Physical activity should be avoided and a supportive bra should be worn for 6 weeks.
