Women place such emphasis on the appearance of their breasts that breast lifts in Manhattan have become one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures done by Dr. Wallach. If you are considering the procedure, there are some myths to dispel concerning breast lifts.
Fiction
: Pectoral exercises can be a good alternative to a breast lift.
Fact
: Pectoral exercises have never been considered a replacement for breast lift surgery. Although such exercises can indeed tone the muscles in the chest, they are not performed to shape the breasts and make them perkier. It is normal for the skin in the breasts to sag and ligaments to stretch as time passes, and pectoral exercises do not address this condition.
Fiction
: Breast augmentation gives the breast a “lifting” effect.
Fact
: Breast augmentation is a procedure done on patients who want to improve the size and shape of their breasts. However, it does not reposition the breasts to a more desired place the way a breast lift does. When inserted into the breasts, implants only add substance and nothing more.
Fiction
: You can only choose between a breast lift and breast augmentation.
Fact
: The truth is, a breast lift can be added to improve the results of your breast augmentation surgery. Many plastic surgeons, including Dr. Wallach, combine these two procedures to enhance overall results. Breast augmentation is done to achieve a more pleasant breast shape and size while a breast lift is performed to reposition the nipple into a much higher place. When combined, both procedures will not only deliver optimum results, but your cost will be less than having the procedures performed separately.
