After having children my breast seems saggy. Am I a right candidate for breast lift or augmentation?
Generally, women after child birth tend to have drooping of breasts. This may be associated with loss of volume too. A breast lift can improve the shape of breasts that have a flatter, elongated shape. If you have good volume, breast lift alone is a good option. If you have lost volume as well you may require implants too in addition.

Is it safe to have a breast lift during the same setting when I am having another cosmetic surgery?
Many women like to combine plastic surgical procedures in order to take less time off from work or to reduce the amount of time that they will need assistance with childcare. Breast lift can be combined with Liposuction and or Tummy tuck procedures. This also helps in cutting down the overall cost.
