One of our favorite parts of a breast lift consultation is question time. We are passionate about answering questions and educating patients about their options for breast enhancement in Santa Barbara.

Questions can help you learn more about breast lift surgery and prepare for your surgery and recovery. As you look forward to your consultation, write down any questions that come to mind. Bring your list with you when you come in. In the excitement of a consultation, it is easy to forget the questions you wanted to ask. 

What questions should you ask at your breast lift consultation? Honestly, if a question is on your mind, we want you to ask it. To get your list started, here are a few ideas of commonly asked breast lift questions. We can’t wait to hear what questions you have for us.

Should I Add Implants When I Get My Breast Lift?

Pairing your breast lift with implants can enhance your results. If you’re interested in increasing your cup size during your breast lift or if you need more fullness at the top of your breasts (upper pole), ask Dr. Yegiyants if breast implants could benefit you.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Breast Lift?

Many women with breast sagging are good candidates for a lift. Talk with Dr. Yegiyants about your goals for surgery and your health to make sure that a breast lift will be safe and effective for you.

What Type of Incision Will You Use for My Breast Lift?

The type of incision Dr. Yegiyants chooses for your breast lift will depend on the amount of breast sagging you’re experiencing.

• Donut – The incision is placed around the areola, ideal for minor sagging.
• Lollipop – An incision is placed around the areola and vertically down the center of the lower breast to form a lollipop shape.
• Anchor – An anchor incision features an incision around the areola, vertically down the center of the breast, and across the base of the breast.

Knowing Dr. Yegiyants’ plan for your incisions can help you plan for scarring and get a better idea of your expected results.

How Much Will My Breast Lift Cost?

The cost of a breast lift depends on your unique situation. We’ll provide a detailed quote at your consultation.

What Will I Look Like After a Breast Lift?

Your body will determine your breast lift results. Looking at before and after photos can be helpful, but without the trained eye of a plastic surgeon, it is hard to know how your body type will influence your results. 

Dr. Yegiyants can show you before and after photos of women with a similar body type to give you a better idea of your post-surgery results.

How Much Work Will I Need to Miss?

The extent of your surgery will determine your recovery. Ask Dr. Yegiyants what to expect from your recovery so you can plan for time off work and help around the house.

Are There Any Other Procedures You Recommend?

Could you benefit from a tummy tuck or liposuction with your breast lift? Depending on your goals, pairing procedures together can reduce downtime and enhance your results.
