As women leave their childbearing years and experience progressive hormonal changes, they may become dissatisfied with the resulting changes in their bodies. Breasts often lose firmness and volume, especially in women who have nursed their children or lost significant weight. Women may be troubled by breasts that appear deflated or have excess skin. However, women who have achieved confidence within themselves may refuse to live the second half of their lives frustrated with their appearance.

Implants are thin shells filled with the material silicone or saline (sterile salt water). Both types of implants have been approved by the FDA for use in cosmetic procedures. The saline breast implants provide a more uniform shape; whereas, the silicone breast implants have the feel of a more natural breast. The choice of implant is the patient\u2019s decision.

The simultaneous operations are a common procedure, but can be challenging due to the multiple goals involved. Not only does the combination of procedures strive to increase the volume of the breasts to enhance the shape, but is also needs to decrease the skin envelope at the same time.

Patients are given a general anesthesia for their comfort. Incisions are made in the creases beneath the breasts, under the arms, or around the areola. The breast tissue is gently separated from the muscles and connective tissues in the chest, creating a pocket to receive the implant. Sutures may be used deep inside the breast to aid in reshaping the breast tissue. Precise incisions are made to remove excess skin and the nipple relocated to a higher position, if necessary. The incisions are closed and the patient moved to a recovery room for careful monitoring while the anesthesia wears off. The breasts are wrapped with gauze and a surgical sports bra is worn to minimize swelling and promote healing. After a recovery period, patients are sent home on the same day as their procedure to begin their healing process at home. Patients may notice soreness and swelling for 1-2 weeks. Around the incisions, there may be some redness for a few months. Any numbness in the breast will typically diminish by six months. The visible, physical changes in the breast contours are immediate and the emotional changes of patients include greater self-confidence and improved body image. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/tests-procedures\/breast-augmentation\/basics\/what-you-can-expect\/prc-20021493\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mayo Clinic &#8211; breast augmentation<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayoclinic.org\/tests-procedures\/breast-lift\/basics\/what-you-can-expect\/prc-20020444\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mayo Clinic &#8211; breast lift<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WHY CHOOSE <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PREMIER PLASTIC SURGERY &amp; DERMATOLOGY<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> FOR YOUR <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/breast-procedures-pittsburgh\/breast-augmentation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BREAST AUGMENTATION<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> WITH <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/breast-procedures-pittsburgh\/breast-lift\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">BREAST LIFT<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PROCEDURE?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-9588\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/files\/2015\/12\/ppspa-meet-our-team.png\" alt=\"ppspa-meet-our-team\" width=\"367\" height=\"273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/ppspa-meet-our-team.png 367w, https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/ppspa-meet-our-team-300x223.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 367px) 100vw, 367px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Premier Plastic Surgery &amp; Dermatology<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, our board-certified plastic surgeon and founder <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premierplasticsurgerypa.com\/plastic-surgery-staff-pittsburgh\/dr-brian-v-heil\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Brian V.
