Breast Lift with Implants
Some things deserve a fresh start. For many women, that includes their breasts. Whether changes have come from pregnancy, breastfeeding, significant weight loss—including changes tied to GLP-1 medications—or simply the passage of time, a breast lift with implants offers a way to reclaim both shape and fullness in one comprehensive procedure. The result can be a firmer, higher, and fuller silhouette that feels every bit as confident as it looks.
At Najera Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery, Dr. Robert Najera (widely known as “Dr. Dallas”) combines more than 15 years of surgical expertise with a deeply personalized approach. As a double board-certified plastic surgeon in Frisco, TX with a strong focus on body contouring, Dr. Najera works closely with each patient to design a result that reflects her unique goals, whether that means subtle refinement or a bold, head-turning transformation!

What Are the Benefits of a Breast Lift with Implants?
A breast lift alone addresses position and shape; breast augmentation with implants restore volume. Together, they can help women achieve a chest that looks fuller, sexier, and beautifully proportioned.
Common benefits offered by this procedure include:
- Elevated breast position for a firmer, more youthful look
- Restored volume and fullness lost to pregnancy, breastfeeding, aging, or weight changes
- Improved symmetry between both breasts
- Enhanced cleavage and projection
- Greater confidence in clothing, swimwear, and everything in between
For women who want a dramatic, sexy result, this combination procedure can deliver exactly that. For those who prefer something more understated, that’s equally achievable. Dr. Dallas believes the ideal outcome is the one you actually want—not someone else’s definition of what looks “right.”

Am I a Candidate for a Breast Lift with Implants?
This procedure is generally well-suited for women who are in good overall health and are experiencing both sagging (ptosis) and a loss of breast volume. Ideal candidates often include those who feel their breasts rest lower than they used to, have lost projection or fullness over time, or want a more comprehensive transformation than either a lift or augmentation could provide alone.
During your consultation, Dr. Najera takes a thorough, individualized approach to evaluate your chest wall dimensions, skin quality, tissue thickness, and the current degree of ptosis. These details guide implant selection, incision planning, and overall surgical strategy. As with any procedure, candidacy ultimately comes down to safety, honest expectations, and a clear understanding of what this surgery can and cannot do. Dr. Dallas takes pride in giving patients the information they need to make confident, informed decisions.
What Can I Expect During Recovery from Breast Lift with Implants Surgery?
Recovery from a combined breast lift and augmentation is similar to that of breast augmentation alone, though some patients may experience a slightly longer initial healing period given the additional tissue work involved. Most patients manage discomfort well with prescribed medication and return to light daily activities within a few days.
Light walking is encouraged early in the recovery process to promote circulation. Most patients return to work within one to two weeks, depending on the physical demands of their job. More strenuous exercise and activities are typically resumed after approximately six weeks, based on individual healing progress.
Swelling and some initial tightness are normal and should gradually improve. The implants should settle into their final position over the course of about three months, during which shape and softness should continue to evolve. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to track your progress and ensure everything is healing as expected.
As with any surgery, there are risks involved. With this particular procedure, risks include bleeding, infection, asymmetry, implant-related complications, or changes in sensation. Our plastic surgeon is extensively skilled and experienced and works diligently to reduce the potential for complications, and all risks will be thoroughly discussed during your consultation. Dr. Najera and his team are committed to supporting you every step of the way.
How Much Does a Breast Lift with Implants Cost?
Because this is a combination procedure, the total cost is typically higher than either a breast lift or augmentation performed on its own. At our Frisco and Dallas-Fort Worth-area practice, the cost of a breast lift with implants starts at approximately $12,500 and generally varies among patients based on factors including:
- The type and size of implants selected
- Degree of surgical complexity
- Anesthesia fees
- Whether any additional procedures are performed concurrently
A detailed, personalized cost breakdown will be provided at the time of your consultation. Our practice accepts most major credit cards (excluding American Express®) and offers financing through CareCredit® and Alphaeon® Credit for qualified applicants. When evaluating cost, it’s worth remembering that experience, precision, and surgical safety are ultimately the most important investments, and Dr. Najera brings all three to every procedure.
