What Is Breast Augmentation + Lift?
As women age, breasts may lose fullness and develop sagging skin. At Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery in Pensacola, FL, combining breast augmentation with a lift (mastopexy) can address these issues. This procedure removes excess skin and adds saline or silicone implants to enhance size, shape, and position, giving a more youthful, perky appearance. To see if this is right for you, schedule a consultation to discuss your goals.
What Is the Surgical Technique?
Breast augmentation combined with a lift is typically an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. The lift part of the surgery usually happens first, during which any excess skin is removed, and the underlying tissue is tightened. The options for breast implants will be discussed prior to surgery, ensuring they can be efficiently placed during the procedure. Additionally, the nipple-areola complex may need to be repositioned to align better with the new size and shape of the breasts.
What Are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation + Lift?
Aging, weight loss, pregnancy, and other factors could affect the appearance of your breasts, affecting your outward appearance and confidence. Breast augmentation with lift in Pensacola, FL has several benefits to boost and rejuvenate your body, including:
- Shapes and defines the breasts
- Achieves a lifted, younger appearance
- Raises sagging and shifted breasts
- Enhances or reduces breast size
- Relocates and resizes the nipples
- Enhances breast fullness and volume
- Reduces the size of the areolas
Breast Augmentation + Lift Reviews
Dr Leveque is a fantastic Dr and surgeon. I had breast surgery and the results are beyond what I was expecting! Couldn't be happier with the results. Highly recommend her.
I had such a wonderful experience having breast surgery with Dr. Leveque and her team. She is truly amazing at what she does. Her skills and attention to detail are outstanding. The facility itself is beautiful and welcoming, and every member of the staff was so kind, caring, and helpful throughout the entire process. From start to finish, I felt supported and comfortable. I’m so so happy with my results and feel so much better and more confident post-op. I can’t recommend Dr. Leveque and her team highly enough!
I overall had a wonderful experience with Dr. Butler. Dr. Butler was really informative and knowledgeable. His nurses Amy & Wendy were so great. My pre-op and post opp nurse Jesse Frasse was STELLAR & just incredible. She made me feel really comfortable in my first surgery ever!

The staff was equally amazing-friendly,professional and open to answering any questions I had along the way.My end result exceeded my expectations.The lift and implants look incredibly natural. My recovery and post operative care were incredible.

Truly a 5-star experience! Don't wait!
I am currently 7 weeks post op from breast augmentation/mastopexy and extended tummy tuck with Dr. Nathan Patterson and Gulf Coast Plastics. A “mommy makeover” at 67 years young has truly been a dream come true. I am so very thankful to Dr. Patterson, the front office staff, nurses, and the surgery center for the wonderful care I have received throughout my journey. I could not have wished for a more caring and professional team. They are the best!

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I get a breast augmentation and lift at the same time?
Combining breast augmentation with a lift allows you to address both volume and position in one surgery. While augmentation enhances size and shape with implants, a lift raises and reshapes sagging tissue for a more youthful contour. Having both procedures together provides more balanced results and avoids the need for two separate surgeries and recovery periods.
Is recovery longer when you add a lift to breast augmentation?
Recovery is usually comparable, even when the procedures are combined. Patients can expect some soreness, swelling, and limited activity for the first week or two, with most returning to light routines within 1 – 2 weeks. Adding a lift may slightly extend recovery time compared to augmentation alone, but most patients feel the benefits of addressing both concerns at once outweigh the difference.
How long will I need off work for a breast augmentation and lift?
Most patients need about 1 – 2 weeks off work after a breast augmentation with lift, depending on the type of job they have. Those with desk jobs may return sooner, while physically demanding jobs may require more time away. Our team will provide detailed recovery instructions and guide you on when it’s safe to resume work and other activities.
