Breast Enhancement Patients in Tampa, Florida Choosing Combined Procedures for a Complete Makeover

    ST. PETERSBURG, FL, November 20, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- While breast augmentation ranks as one of the most frequently performed cosmetic surgery procedures, Dr. Benedetti reports that women at his Tampa area plastic surgery practice (www.benedetticosmeticsurgery.com) are showing an increased interest in combined breast enhancement procedures, such as breast augmentation plus lift or breast reduction plus lift, for a more complete breast makeover.

"For many women who are considering a breast enhancement procedure, the primary goal is to change the size of their breasts," says Dr. Benedetti. "However, a breast augmentation or breast reduction by itself may not address concerns a woman has about the shape or position of her breasts. By combining a breast lift with their procedures, I'm able to help my patients achieve a more complete breast enhancement here in Tampa, Florida."

The most common combination breast enhancement procedure Dr. Benedetti performs is a breast lift with breast augmentation. This combination is a good option for women who want to increase the size of their breasts and correct sagging and/or volume loss that can occur as a result of pregnancy, age, or weight loss. The augmentation portion of the procedure will give the patient the breast volume she is looking for while the lift will raise the breasts to a more flattering position, creating a younger, more feminine profile. In addition to breast augmentation in Tampa, many women choose a breast lift as part of their breast reduction procedure.

Combination surgical procedures can also help correct more individualized breast appearance problems. For women with asymmetric breasts, for example, augmentation can create proportion in terms of breast size while a breast lift may be needed to correct uneven positioning of the breasts. A combination approach may be recommended for women with tuberous breasts, a condition in which the breasts are small and tight, and tend to appear narrower from top to bottom, as if they are pointing downward. A combination of augmentation and a breast lift in Tampa can correct this problem by inserting an implant to round out the lower breast, while a lift technique is used to reposition the breast mound. When performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Benedetti, combination procedures can meet a wide range of breast enhancement goals.

"When I meet a new patient who is considering a breast enhancement procedure, I evaluate her surgical goals and her existing anatomy so that I can recommend the procedure, or combination of procedures, that will best fit her needs," adds Dr. Benedetti. "For my breast enhancement patients, surgery is about much more than making cosmetic changes. It's about gaining the self-confidence and sense of well-being that comes from loving the way you look."
