A little more volume can change the way your breasts fill out clothing, while a lift can restore shape and position when the skin has stretched over time. Breast augmentation with lift in Paramus brings both goals together in one surgery, giving Dr. Breslow the ability to refine breast size, contour, and projection at the same time.
At The Breslow Center, every augmentation mastopexy is planned around your proportions, existing breast tissue, and the type of result that feels natural for your frame.

Breast augmentation with lift, also called augmentation mastopexy, combines breast implants with breast lift surgery. The implant restores or increases breast volume, while the lift removes excess skin and reshapes the breast tissue to create a firmer position and more youthful projection.
Combining the procedures can be especially helpful when breasts have lost both volume and support after pregnancy, weight changes, or aging.
This combined procedure is designed for breasts that need both added volume and repositioning.
It may improve:
Performing breast augmentation and a breast lift together allows several changes to be addressed through one surgical plan.
Benefits may include:
A combined procedure may be appropriate when breast implants alone would add volume but leave loose skin or sagging untreated.
Your breasts have lost fullness, sit lower on the chest wall, or have changed following pregnancy, aging, or weight changes. Good candidates are generally healthy, have realistic expectations, and understand that both implants and breast lift scars are part of the procedure.
You are planning a pregnancy or major weight loss in the near future, have an uncontrolled health condition, or need additional evaluation for a breast health concern. Your medical history and physical exam will help Dr. Breslow determine the safest timing and approach.
Before surgery, your healthcare team will review your medical history, medications, vitamins, and herbal supplements. You may be asked to stop certain medications, avoid nicotine, and arrange transportation and help at home for the first few days.
Your consultation also includes decisions about implant size, shape, and material. Saline implants and silicone implants each have different characteristics, and newer cohesive silicone gel options, often called gummy bear implants, may also be discussed.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and combines implant placement with reshaping of the existing breast tissue.
The exact technique depends on your anatomy, breast size, implant selection, and the degree of lift required.
Soreness, swelling, tightness, and bruising are expected during the early healing process. Most patients notice steady improvement during the first few weeks.
Many patients return to light work and routine daily activities within about 5–7 days.
Heavy lifting and strenuous exercise are restricted while the breast tissue and incisions heal. Exercise generally returns gradually around 4–6 weeks, depending on your progress.
The first few days are usually the most uncomfortable. Swelling and bruising improve over the next several weeks, while the implants and breast tissue continue settling into their final position over the following months.
Wear your surgical bra as directed, sleep in the recommended position, avoid pressure on the breasts, and follow all activity restrictions. Keeping follow-up appointments allows Dr. Breslow and his team to monitor healing closely.
You will see an immediate change in breast size and position, although swelling initially makes the breasts appear fuller and higher than the final result.
Breast lift results can remain attractive for many years, although aging, gravity, pregnancy, and weight changes continue to affect breast skin over time.
Breast implants are long-lasting medical devices, but they are not considered lifetime devices. Future surgery may eventually be needed for implant exchange, rupture, capsular contracture, or a change in aesthetic preference.
Scar placement depends on how much lifting is necessary. Incisions may be placed around the areola, vertically toward the breast crease, or along the crease itself.
The Breslow Center uses careful incision planning and absorbable sutures to support discreet healing. Scars gradually soften and fade over many months.
A breast augmentation adds volume but does not correct significant sagging. A breast lift reshapes and elevates the breast without substantially increasing breast size. Combining the two is often the better match when both volume loss and loose skin are contributing to the overall breast contour.
Breast reduction serves a different goal, removing breast tissue and skin to create a smaller, lighter breast.
Yes. Some patients include augmentation mastopexy in a mommy makeover along with tummy tuck surgery or liposuction. Combining cosmetic procedures requires thoughtful planning around total surgical time, recovery, and your overall health.

Because the procedure includes both implant placement and tissue reshaping, soreness and tightness are expected. Pain medication and careful aftercare help keep the early recovery manageable.
Options may include saline or silicone breast implants in different sizes and profiles. Dr. Breslow will help you choose an implant based on your breast tissue, chest dimensions, and preferred result.
Yes. If you are happy with your existing breast volume, a breast lift alone may be enough to improve position and shape.
Potential implant-related complications include capsular contracture, implant rupture, changes in sensation, and the possibility of future revision surgery. Dr. Breslow will review these risks and safety precautions with you before surgery.
Yes. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can stretch breast skin and change breast volume after surgery. Patients planning another pregnancy may choose to postpone the procedure for more stable long-term results.
