How Do Breast Implants And Lifts Differ?
Breast implants make the breasts larger. An implanted breast is large and protruding at the top, resembling a push-up bra, whereas a natural breast takes on a teardrop shape.
Although this push-up bra style isn’t as natural, many patients still like it.
Implants can also somewhat raise the breast, but they won’t be sufficient if the patient is too droopy. In this case, a breast lift is necessary.
Without the need for an implant, a breast lift only tightens loose skin to reposition what is already there.
Imagine a bra that is too big. The skin itself is the cloth that is removed during a breast lift to make the bra tighter.
Lifted breasts will look like teardrops, and drooping will be lessened. The nipple can be raised to a more youthful posture with mastopexy in Dubai.
A breast lift results in a more natural-looking breast, but it does not provide the same long-term upper breast fullness as an implant.
Do I Need A Breast Lift Or Implants? Or Both?
Women who want bigger breasts or wish to restore lost volume may consider breast implants. The breast lift clinic in Dubai advised that they are therefore often suitable for:
- Patients who desire a larger, more proportionate physique yet have smaller breasts
- Patients who want to add at least one cup to their breast size
- Breasts that have decreased volume due to weight loss or delivery
However, a patient might think about getting a lift if she is comfortable with her size and simply wants her breasts to seem less drooping. Frequently, a breast lift is more suitable for:
- Breasts that are proportionate but drooping or dropping
- Breasts with downward-pointing nipples
- Loss of firmness in the breasts
- Asymmetrical breasts, with one hanging lower than the other
In certain situations, it could be appropriate to take into account both. For instance, an implant lift can assist if your breasts are drooping and lacking fullness.
Talking to the best breast lift surgeon in Dubai, like Dr. Hanan Lyor, should be the first course of action in any event.
In Dr. Hanan Lyor’s practice, we aim to address the root cause of the problem from the outset of the consultation. A patient is probably a suitable candidate for a lift alone if she is comfortable with her size in a bra, but her breasts “go south” when the bra is removed. Dr. Hanan Lyor will have to put in an implant if the patient wishes she were bigger when wearing her bra.
Some patients who wish to be bigger will require a lift and implant combo, depending on the extent of droop.
What About Other Breast Lift Options?
In other situations, Dr. Hanan Lyor might recommend an alternative strategy.
For instance, Dr. Hanan Lyor would recommend breast sculpting in Dubai in addition to a breast reduction if a patient wishes to reduce overly large breasts. This is because, in a nutshell, gravity prevails and large breasts will always “go south.”
Additionally, Dr. Hanan Lyor could recommend a lift and reduction first, then a phased augmentation, if a patient requires both an implant and a lift but has enormous breasts. The combined effect of lifts and implants is more varied for heavier natural breasts.
In addition, many patients desire what Dr. Hanan Lyor calls breasts that defy gravity. Only a patient with minimal natural tissue can acquire this breast. Since none of the breasts are natural, all of them are implants. A larger-breasted patient will require a reduction first, then a phased implant to accomplish this.
In essence, this makes it such that there is less natural tissue available to react to gravity.
Since aggressively reducing natural tissue during augmentation may increase the chance of healing issues, Dr. Hanan Lyor prefers to stage the procedure. Although it is quite uncommon for people to wish to get smaller so they can have implants, Dr. Hanan Lyor thinks this idea makes sense.
The Pros And Cons Of A Breast Lift Vs Breast Implants
- Drooping: Whether or not droopiness is a good or bad thing depends on your objectives. A breast that has been raised will recover some droop and take on a teardrop appearance. This is what natural breasts do, and patients who want outcomes that seem natural will view them as a “pro.” However, we are more accustomed to seeing implanted breasts and view them as perfect in our nation, possibly due to doctors like Dr. Hanan Lyor. Therefore, some people may view the droopiness following a mastopexy surgery in Dubai as a “con” and prefer the non-droop of implants.
- Scars: Any surgical operation has the potential to leave scars, and implants and lifts are no exception. Scars from implant surgeries alone, without lift or reduction, are becoming less frequent. More scars are left after breast lifts. Although there are several types of boob lift Dubai, they are all essentially skin-removal operations, which means that they will all leave scars of varying intensities. Your genes have significantly more power over your scars than your plastic surgeon, whether they are good or terrible. You have to think that the hazards of these scars are worth it.
- Fullness: The term “upper pole fullness” refers to the bulge that implants create in the top of the breast. Younger women often experience this because the growing breast tissue presses against tight skin. The teardrop or mature breast, starts as the skin relaxes. Although it is technically less natural, many people consider this a positive aspect.
Several patients express, “I just want a small implant to achieve upper pole fullness along with my nipple inversion correction in Dubai.” The issue is that a small implant is frequently insufficient. The implant’s size will depend on how tall and wide it has to be to achieve fullness up top.
Increased breast size and fuller upper poles are two benefits of implants, but there are many more factors to consider.
Your breasts should be lifted. You don’t have to do anything else with them, even if they droop and can be raised again.
You don’t have implants. Since implants are mechanical devices, they will ultimately break, leak, or malfunction and need to be maintained and replaced.
- Risks: Leaks, ruptures, MRI follow-ups, and capsular contractures are specific to implants, although each procedure carries some risk. For a patient, the benefits must far outweigh the drawbacks, which include more time, more consideration, more operations, and more future financial outlays.

In conclusion, a skilled surgeon, Dr. Hanan Lyor, may assist you in making a personal decision between breast mastopexy surgery Dubai and implants.
