As women age, many lose fullness in their breasts, while others begin to notice sagging and stretched, lax breast skin. Some women have both concerns, leading to drooping, deflated breasts and nipples that point downward. If you want to lift, reshape, and add fullness to your breasts, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jules Walters performs breast augmentation surgery with a breast lift (mastopexy) at our New Orleans plastic surgery practice in Metairie, LA.
On this page, you’ll find answers to all your questions about how the surgery works, what to expect, and more.

View Photo GalleryThis procedure removes loose skin from the breasts and then adds volume by either placing silicone or saline implants or using a fat transfer method to achieve your goal size. Breast surgery with a lift and augmentation addresses multiple concerns, such as shape, size, and position to create younger, perkier-looking breasts.
There are several reasons why you may be looking into a combined breast lift and breast augmentation. It’s an ideal choice if you want to significantly rejuvenate your breasts while improving the firmness of your breast skin. You may have developed breast ptosis (sagging) caused by significant weight loss, aging, or pregnancy and would like to enhance the volume and shape of your breasts. This can all be achieved with an augmentation and lift.
During your consultation, you and Dr. Walters will go over your unique concerns and desires to create the best treatment plan for you. You will have a chance to view a simulation of your potential results with VECTRA® 3-D imaging. Dr. Walters will determine if a lift and fat transfer will achieve your desired outcome or if a lift with implants will better create your ideal look.
Dr. Walters draws from his exceptional training, experience, and skill to create beautiful, natural-looking results. He is board certified in both plastic surgery and general surgery, and completed extensive training in both aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery. His memberships include:
His credentials, integrity, and patient-centered approach make him one of the best-rated plastic surgeons in New Orleans.
Meet Dr. WaltersThe cost of a breast lift at our New Orleans practice varies from person to person, depending on the technique, type of implant placed, and other factors. After assessing your goals during your consultation, we will provide you with a personalized pricing estimate.
Dr. Walters commonly performs combination breast surgery at the AAAHC-accredited Houma Outpatient Surgery Center as an outpatient procedure. You will be under general anesthesia and comfortably asleep for the duration of the surgery. In most cases, the lift portion of the surgery is done after a temporary sizer is placed or after the breasts are injected with fat. The excess skin is eliminated, and the soft tissue is smoothed. The nipple and areola are positioned higher on the breast if desired.
The recovery time frame for augmentation with a lift will differ for everyone; however, you will probably be well enough to return to your everyday activities in about 7 days. You should refrain from exercise and strenuous activities for at least 4 weeks. After your surgery, there will also be mild to moderate swelling that may last for 2 to 3 weeks. Your implants will settle into their final position after several months, revealing your final results.
I could not brag more about how happy I am with my results! Choosing Dr. Walters was hands down the best decision I made. He and all of his staff made the entire process seamless from start to finish. 3 months post op today and I have ZERO regrets. I did lots of research on doctors before choosing Dr. Walters. He is extremely knowledgeable and talented. He put up with all of my endless questions and went over and beyond for me when I had post op questions while he was out of town. I can not thank him enough for the amazing results and for putting up with me!!
I loved every visit with Dr. Walters! At my consultation, he was very informative and knowledgeable. He communicated to me what was best for my body and realistically achievable to get the most natural looking results. All of my post op follow up appointments have been great, as well! He listened to all of my questions and concerns, addressing them honestly and confidently! My results are exactly what I wanted and more! I know what I was getting with the breast lift and augmentation, but I was pleasantly surprised with the liposuction results! I highly recommend him! The entire staff is warm and friendly leaving you to feel comfortable in the office.
Our care for you continues long after you leave the office. Your recovery experience includes:
