Before exploring your options, it is important to understand what breast implants can and cannot do.
How Preservé™ Creates Upper Breast Fullness
Traditionally, the answer was no. Conventional breast augmentation requires creating a pocket that extends across much of the breast, making it difficult to place a small implant in just one area. As a result, implants typically increase the overall volume of the breast rather than targeting a specific region.
However, Preservé™ breast augmentation has changed what is possible. Through a technique known as selective volumization, Dr. Epstein can place a smaller implant in a carefully chosen area of the breast, often the upper-inner portion, where fullness has been lost.
Because Preservé™ preserves the natural ligaments and support structures within the breast, the implant can remain positioned in the desired location rather than shifting throughout a larger pocket. This allows for more precise enhancement than traditional breast augmentation techniques.
When Can a Breast Lift Be Helpful?
While selective volumization can restore fullness to the upper breast, some women also experience breast sagging that affects overall breast shape. In these situations, combining breast augmentation with a breast lift may provide the best result.
A breast lift repositions breast tissue and the nipple to a more youthful location, while augmentation restores lost volume. Together, these procedures can enhance upper breast fullness and improve overall breast contour.
