Abdominoplasty & Mastopexy Augmentation

Mastopexy augmentation and abdominoplasty when performed in combination can be quite a powerful combination to overall total body aesthetics.

During mastopexy augmentation or simultaneous breast lift and breast augmentation, a breast implant is placed as in a standard augmentation and at the same time, the nipple areola complex is elevated to a much higher position on the chest. When this is performed alone, the result can restore a youthful appearance to the breast.

When an abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, is performed at the same time, the contour of the abdomen can be significantly improved which even further improves the aesthetic proportion of the breast.

Many patients are very happy with this combined procedure. We see many patients around the holiday season who wish to undergo simultaneous mastopexy/augmentation and abdominoplasty as the holiday season offers an opportunity to rest and recover in Newport Beach, California.

Mini-Tummy Tuck and Liposuction

It is quite common for women to present in our office who have lower abdominal laxity as well as localized deposits of fat around the abdomen. Often these women do not wish to undergo a full abdominoplasty and would rather keep their scars to a minimum.

Often patients may have a prior cesarean section scar that can be used to gain access to the lower abdominal muscles that need to be tightened. Often these scars can be revised at the same time that the lower abdominal muscles are tightened.

Liposuction can commonly be performed at the same time that the lower abdominal muscles are tightened to remove fat from the upper abdomen, the flanks, the lower back, and bra fat.

The photograph above demonstrates before and after photographs of a patient after “mini-tummy tuck” and liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, lower back, and bra fat.
