A breast uplift involves removing excess skin and relocating the areola to a higher position on the breast. A breast auto augmentation however is more of a breast reconstruction. The patient’s own natural breast tissue is reshaped and relocated to the upper portion of their breast. An auto augmentation is most commonly performed on patients who are having breast implants removed. To find out more about which procedure is most suitable for you book a consultation with one of our expert breast surgeons.

A breast auto-augmentation can be performed on patients who do not have breast implants however it is more commonly performed on patients who are having their implants removed. This is because the auto augmentation procedure relies on the breast pocket which is created by the breast implant, the breast pocket gives the surgeon the ability to reconstruct the breast and separate out the breast tissue to relocate portions to the upper portion of the breast. If you have not had a breast implant, you will not have a breast pocket. A breast pocket can however be created but this does take extreme skill and should only be performed by a specialist breast surgeon. If you have not had an implant but are seeking an implant then a breast uplift is likely to give you the appearance that you are hoping to achieve. To discuss your breast surgery options in more detail we advise that you book a consultation with one of our expert surgeons who will be able to offer their advice on the best procedure for you.

Most patients will notice a change in their breasts immediately following their breast auto-augmentation procedure. Shortly after surgery you are likely to experience swelling which usually takes a couple of weeks to initially settle but can take a few months for it to completely settle. At 6 weeks you will start to be able to see how your final results are going to look but full recovery can take 6-12 months. Your expert surgeon will provide you with aftercare advice following breast auto-augmentation surgery. It is very important that you follow this advice to ensure that you get the best results and reduce your risk of developing any complications.

Our Breast Auto Augmentation procedure is a highly specialised technique that is only performed by experienced breast surgeons. A Breast Auto Augmentation is a breast reconstruction procedure that uses the body’s own natural tissue to replicate the fullness of a breast implant. It is a great option for patients who wish to remove their implants but maintain the fullness of the breast. No additional volume or weight will be added to the breasts and instead, patients can expect to achieve a lifted breast with improved shape and position. This procedure is not the same as a standard breast uplift procedure which only changes the nipple position and tightens the skin. The patient’s own breast tissue is instead reshaped and relocated into the upper portion of the breast. Choosing Breast Auto Augmentation with The Private Clinic means;
