when you get a breast augmentation done is a lift usually included?

I called a place in Vegas to get an estimate price for how much fake boobs would be. I was quoted around $5100. When you have this surgery done do they automatically do a lift? Do you even need a lift with it if you only wear an A cup in the beginning? My friend was arguing saying you need a lift and there is no way that price includes it. I didn’t want to argue until I knew what I was talking about. Thanks!
