Patient 21
Breast Lift

This 43 year old female presented to Dr. Siamak Agha with large breasts following previous breast augmentation with implants and tummy tuck elsewhere. The patient also wished to undergo liposuction of her back to enhance her back view, as well as hour-glass silhouette.

On examination, the patient was found to have DDD/F breast cup size with ample breast tissue.  She also had multiple back rolls and excess fatty fullness of her lower back, love-handles, waist, and sacrum.

During her surgery, Dr. Agha removed 480 cc smooth round silicone implants from both breasts. The right implant was intact but the left was leaking silicone.  As per plan of surgery, he next reduced the patient’s naturally large breasts. About 140 grams of outer breast tissue was cut out from the right side and 147 grams on the left side.    Dr. Agha then performed his signature dermal bra suspension breast lift.  This technique was pioneered by Drs. Rubin and Agha in 2005 and is a specialized breast lift that creates a breast mound that is placed high on the chest via sutures. At the same time, an internal bra is created to hold the breast tissue in place.
