At American Surgical Arts in Mullica Hill, NJ, Dr. Sean M. Bidic and Dr. Vinay S. Gundlapalli perform breast enhancement procedures with support from our team. Both surgeons are double board-certified, and our consultations are built around your anatomy, goals, and comfort with each option.
What Breast Augmentation Does
Breast augmentation increases breast volume with implants. It may be a good fit if your breasts sit in a position you like, but you want more fullness, a different size, or improved symmetry.
Augmentation can help with:
- Naturally smaller breast size
- Volume loss after pregnancy or weight changes
- Mild asymmetry
- A desire for more upper breast fullness
Breast augmentation does not significantly lift a sagging breast. If the nipple sits low or the breast tissue has dropped, an implant alone may not create the shape you want.
What a Breast Lift Does
A breast lift reshapes and raises the breast. It removes excess skin, repositions the nipple and areola, and creates a more lifted breast contour.
A lift may be the better choice if:
- The nipples point downward
- The nipples sit below the breast crease
- The breasts look deflated or elongated
- Skin laxity is the main issue
- You want better shape more than added size
A breast lift changes position and contour, but it does not add major volume on its own.
When You May Need Both Procedures
Many people need both lifting and volume restoration. A breast augmentation with lift can raise the breast while adding fullness with implants. This combination may be helpful after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss when the breasts have lost both volume and position.
For people considering breast and abdominal changes together, a mommy makeover may also be part of the discussion.
How We Help You Decide
We consider nipple position, skin stretch, breast tissue, implant goals, and the amount of lift needed before recommending a procedure. In some cases, augmentation alone is enough. In others, a lift or combined surgery creates a better match for your goals.
