Breast Lift vs. Breast Implants in Toronto: Dr. Brett Beber’s Comprehensive Guide
Are you considering enhancing your breasts but unsure whether you need a breast lift, breast implants, or both? As a leading plastic surgeon in Toronto with over 20 years of experience and 15,000+ successful surgeries, Dr. Brett Beber is uniquely qualified to guide you through these options with confidence and reassurance. Understanding Breast Enhancement Options in Toronto Breast augmentation remains the most popular plastic surgical procedure worldwide among women. In Toronto, breast implants, particularly silicone implants, account for approximately 80% of all breast augmentation surgeries. Meanwhile, breast lifts (mastopexy) are increasingly sought by Toronto women experiencing breast sagging due to aging, weight fluctuations, or post-pregnancy changes. This procedure removes excess skin and tightens breast tissue, restoring a youthful shape without adding volume. For many patients, a combination procedure involving both a breast lift and implants delivers the optimal solution when both elevation and increased volume are desired. Take your first step toward a more confident you by choosing the best plastic surgeon in Toronto, Dr. Brett Beber. His personalized consultation values your unique needs and concerns, ensuring you make an informed decision about your breast enhancement. Why do patients choose to undergo breast lift surgery in Toronto? Many patients have this procedure done to fight: Aging: Skin loses its elasticity with age, causing breasts to sag. Pregnancy & breastfeeding: Hormonal fluctuations and lactation can change breast shape and firmness. Weight loss: Extreme weight loss can lead to volume loss and redundant skin. What to Expect with a Breast Lift Procedure A professional breast lift recontours breast tissue and elevates the nipple-areola complex. At my practice, I offer several techniques based on your unique requirements: Anchor Lift: Ideal for significant sagging, with incisions around the areola, vertically downward, and along the breast fold Donut Lift: Using a single circular incision around the areola, suitable for mild sagging cases Lollipop Lift: Combining an areolar incision with a vertical incision, perfect for moderate sagging A breast lift improves the breasts’ symmetry, shape, and firmness, providing a youthful appearance. However, it does not increase breast size; for those seeking larger breasts, breast augmentation is the appropriate option.

Understanding Breast Implants: How do they enhance your Breast Volume? For female patients seeking larger and more symmetrical breasts, breast implants offer an age-defying, long-term solution tailored to individual beauty preferences. Whether for augmentation, reconstruction, or correcting asymmetry, implants provide a customized option designed to achieve a proportionate size that complements the body. What Types of Breast Implants are Available In Toronto? When selecting your ideal breast implant, consider both the personal feel and appearance you desire: Saline-filled implants: Feature a silicone outer shell filled with sterile saltwater solution. Size can be adjusted during surgery and typically provides a firmer feel. Silicone gel-filled implants: Contain cohesive silicone gel within a silicone shell, offering a softer, more natural texture and appearance.

The Breast Implant Procedure at Beber Plastic Surgery: During breast augmentation, implants are carefully inserted into a created pocket either above or below the chest muscle. Customization options include: Size: Tailored for proportionate enhancement based on your body type Shape: Round for maximum fullness or teardrop (anatomical) for a more natural slop Surface: Smooth or textured silicone cases offering different tactile sensations and stability While implants add significant fullness and volume and can last 10-15 years with proper care, they don’t correct breast sagging. For women with breast ptosis, a combination approach may be recommended. A consultation with Toronto’s top-rated surgeon, Dr. Brett Beber, will discuss options so that outcomes can be naturally beautiful in appearance and sensation. Breast lifts in Toronto can also improve implants and achieve optimal results.

Here is a brief comparison for better understanding.
