Is Breast Augmentation With Lift Painful?

During your surgery, you will not be able to feel the incisions, implant placement, or anything else, as you will be under general anesthesia. After the anesthesia wears off, you will feel some soreness and sensitivity around your incisions and in your chest. This can be better tolerated with the prescribed medication provided by Dr. Rokosz.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

Throughout your breast augmentation with lift experience, you will need to attend about 5-6 appointments. This includes a consultation, one surgery, and some follow-up appointments to ensure you are healing accordingly. The follow-ups are necessary for Dr. Rokosz to remove sutures.

How Long Until I See Results?

Initial results of your breast augmentation with lift will be immediate. However, the swelling and bruising disguise some of the results. Additionally, your implants will take a few months to settle into place fully. In total, it typically takes about 3-6 months to be able to enjoy the final results of your new breasts.

How Soon Can I Travel After Breast Augmentation With Lift?

Breast augmentation with lift allows you to take short drives within the first week, but you will need to rest and heal for about 2-4 weeks before going on any flights. Cabin pressure increases the likelihood of swelling, bruising, and blood clots, which can be dangerous and/or prolong your healing.

What Are the Risks Associated with Breast Augmentation With Lift?

Even though Dr. Rokosz is an expert plastic surgeon who has performed this procedure thousands of times, there is still the possibility of risk. You may encounter: Swelling Bruising Soreness Changes in sensation Scarring Bleeding Infection Asymmetry Dissatisfaction with results

What is Breast Augmentation With Lift?

Breast augmentation with lift combines a breast augmentation with a breast lift into a single, comprehensive procedure. This procedure increases breast volume and repositions the breasts on the chest, resulting in rejuvenated, youthful breasts. Patients experiencing both sagging breasts and wanting to increase their breast volume get this procedure, as it saves time and costs compared to getting them at separate times.

Who Are the Best Candidates for Breast Augmentation With Lift?

Breast augmentation with lift may be a great fit for you if you are in the San Antonio area and meet the following criteria:

You are experiencing both volume loss and sagging in your breasts
Your breasts appear deflated, especially in the upper section
Your nipples are below the breast crease or point downward
Your breasts have sagged due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or changes in weight
You want fuller breasts in a more youthful position
You have good overall health
Your expectations are realistic

What Are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation With Lift?

Breast augmentation with lift at Texas Plastic Surgery in San Antonio has been a life-changing procedure for many of our patients. Some of the key advantages these patients have experienced include:

Restored volume
Lifted breasts into a more youthful position
Improved fullness in the upper section of the breasts
Areola is in a more natural, forward-facing position
Improved overall breast shape and reduced sagging in a single procedure
No need for multiple surgeries
Comprehensive transformation rather than benefits from just one procedure

Combining My Breast Augmentation With Lift With Other Procedures

Breast augmentation with lift is already a combination of two procedures, breast augmentation and breast lift, but you can also combine additional procedures to enhance your results further and save on anesthesia and facility costs. Here are some common procedures combined with breast augmentation with lift:

An arm lift is designed to reshape the upper arms. It trims excess, sagging skin and stubborn localized fat and tightens the underlying tissue. It creates a more toned, sculpted, and youthful arm contour.

What to Expect on the Day of Breast Augmentation With Lift Surgery

You will begin your day of surgery by checking in to our San Antonio office, where you will meet with Dr. Rokosz to review your treatment plan. As you review your treatment plan, you are free to ask any lingering questions to help you feel more comfortable.

To begin your surgery, you will be given general anesthesia, meaning you will be completely unconscious for the entire procedure. Dr. Rokosz will make strategic incisions around the areola, vertically or in the breast crease. She will remove excess skin and breast tissue before reshaping and tightening the breasts. She will create a pocket, either over or under the chest muscle, and carefully place the implant to add the desired volume.

The areola is resized (if necessary), and the nipple is repositioned to a more forward-facing, youthful position to avoid the sagging look. The incisions are meticulously closed using sutures beneath the skin, and surgical dressings are carefully applied.

You’ll wake up in a recovery room feeling groggy from the surgery, and you will be given time to adjust.

Breast Augmentation With Lift Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Breast Augmentation With Lift Care

As you recover, the main thing to prioritize is rest. If you try to return to your daily routine too early, you can end up hurting yourself and slow down the healing and recovery process.

You’ll experience some swelling and bruising alongside soreness around your breasts for about a week. To alleviate the discomfort, take the prescribed medication from Dr. Rokosz, who will also instruct you on the dosage. Sleep on your back to avoid putting pressure on your breasts.

You can go on light walks within a few days after surgery to promote blood circulation, but you should avoid raising your arms above shoulder level and avoid pushing, pulling, or lifting anything over 5 to 10 pounds. You can gradually work your way up to moderate exercise over 3 to 4 weeks, but you should avoid strenuous exercise for the first 4 to 6 weeks.

How Much Does Breast Augmentation With Lift Cost in San Antonio, TX?

“highly recommend her for any plastic surgery you may need”

Dr Rokosz is one classy person!

She listens patiently, tells you what you need to hear and does not waver in her stance on things. I asked her opinion on outcome to expect for a procedure i was entertaining to get and I was disappointed in what she said. She understood that it wasn’t what I wanted to hear but she held her ground and was empathetic. It’s hard to want one thing but reality is not always the outcome we want!

She never makes you feel pressured into any kind of decision and is supportive in helping you figure out what will be best for you! I just love her and highly recommend her for any plastic surgery you may need. I am 3 weeks PO from an arm lift and breast lift …both are doing quite well! As i said ..one classy lady!!
