Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation with Lift (Mastopexy) + Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy

Female, 31 years old

June 21, 2025

Concern

The patient experienced painful, swollen legs with easy bruising and body proportion asymmetry. Exercise and diet had not produced improvement, and clothing—especially in summer—was challenging.

BEFORE

Clinical Findings

Moderate-to-significant breast ptosis (sagging)
Palpable finding in the left breast, confirmed by ultrasound and recommended for further evaluation

Treatment Plan & Procedure

A combined lift-and-volume strategy was selected, with simultaneous diagnostic management:

Dual-plane breast augmentation
Anatomical Polytech implants (395 cc)
Mastopexy (breast lift) with tissue reshaping
Ultrasound-guided biopsy of the left breast finding via the existing incisions

Anesthesia: General
Surgery time: ~2.5 hours

Recovery & Aftercare

Smooth recovery with expected mild swelling and discomfort for ~1 week
Postoperative bra for 1 month (per instructions)
Scar care with silicone tape
Scar quality enhancement with specialized laser treatment

AFTER

Outcome

Improved breast contour, lift, and volume with a balanced, natural-looking result. The patient reported greater ease in dressing without reliance on push-up bras, along with increased confidence and satisfaction.
