Breast Augmentation + Lift in Tampa & St. Petersburg
Your breast shape can change for many reasons. Pregnancy, weight loss, aging, or genetics can leave breasts deflated, sagging, or asymmetrical. A breast augmentation with lift, also known as augmentation mastopexy, is a combined procedure that restores volume while raising and reshaping your breasts for a more youthful and confident silhouette.

A breast augmentation with lift is a surgical procedure that combines placing breast implants with a breast lift to improve both volume and position. It’s ideal for women who have experienced loss of fullness and sagging, often due to aging, pregnancy, or major weight changes.
The augmentation restores volume using an implant, while the lift repositions the nipple and tightens the surrounding tissue for a more youthful, elevated appearance. Together, these techniques offer a comprehensive solution for fuller, firmer breasts.
The breast augmentation with lift procedure is performed under general anesthesia in our accredited surgical suite. Dr. Narasimhan typically begins with the lift portion, removing excess skin, reshaping the breast, and repositioning the nipple to its natural height.
Implants are then placed under the muscle or breast tissue, based on your anatomy and desired look. The goal is to achieve a balanced result that enhances breast size without compromising natural movement or contours. Incisions are placed with precision, often around the areola and along the lower breast fold.
After surgery, you’ll return home the same day with a tailored recovery plan and ongoing support from our team.

A breast lift with augmentation is a highly customizable solution for women who want to improve both their breast shape and size in one step.
With this procedure, you get the best of both worlds: fuller volume from augmentation and a more youthful, perky shape from the lift. Patients often feel more confident in fitted clothing and swimwear and experience better balance between their upper and lower bodies. Combining the procedures also reduces overall downtime and allows for a single recovery instead of two separate surgeries.
You may be a good candidate for this combined procedure if you:
During your consultation, Dr. Narasimhan will help determine whether a combined lift and augmentation is the best option for you or if a staged approach is more suitable for achieving your goals.
Recovery following a breast augmentation with lift typically involves 1–2 weeks of limited activity. You’ll wear a supportive bra and follow specific guidelines on movement, sleep position, and incision care.
Swelling and mild discomfort are common initially but improve within the first few days. Dr. Narasimhan will check your healing at post-operative visits and remain available to provide extra support throughout your entire recovery. Full results develop as swelling subsides and your implants settle into their optimal position, usually over several months. Our team provides clear, supportive aftercare to guide you every step of the way.
The results of a breast augmentation with lift can be both physically and emotionally transformative. Patients notice an immediate improvement in breast shape, position, and fullness. The lift restores the breasts to a more youthful position, while the implants enhance projection and overall proportion. These changes are visible right away, though your final contours will continue to become more refined as swelling subsides over the first few months.
What sets this procedure apart is its ability to restore not just volume, but harmony. Many patients report feeling more confident in their clothing, more at ease in intimate settings, and more aligned with how they envision their bodies. Long-lasting results can be maintained with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Patients often find the change brings not only aesthetic satisfaction but a renewed sense of self.

Yes. The amount of added volume depends on the size and type of implant you choose. The breast lift improves breast position but does not add volume on its own.
Yes. Some patients need only one of the two. Dr. Narasimhan will assess your anatomy and goals to recommend the right approach.
There will be scars, but they are placed strategically and fade significantly over time with proper care. Most patients feel the scar trade-off is worth the improvement in shape and size.
Implants typically last 10–15 years or more. The lift portion is also long-lasting, though natural aging and life changes may affect your breast shape over time.
Most women can still breastfeed after a breast augmentation with lift, but outcomes vary depending on the type of implant placement and the lift technique used. It’s best to discuss any future pregnancy plans during your consultation. In many cases, it’s recommended to delay this procedure until after any pregnancies in order to preserve your results.
