What’s the difference between breast augmentation and breast lift?

Breast augmentation increases breast size using implants or fat transfer. A breast lift reshapes and raises sagging breasts without adding volume. Some women combine both procedures for a fuller, lifted result.

How long do breast implants results last?

Most breast implants can last 10 to 15 years, though some may remain intact longer. They’re not lifetime devices and can wear down, rupture, or develop capsular contracture (tightening of scar tissue around the breast implants) over time.

Can I breastfeed with breast implants?

In most cases, yes. Breast implants, especially those placed under the chest muscle with incisions made under the breast or armpit, don’t typically interfere with milk ducts or breastfeeding ability. But if the incision was made around the areola, there’s a slightly higher risk of reduced milk production or altered nipple sensation.
