Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Restore a more youthful and elevated breast contour.

OUR PROCEDURE

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure to raise and reshape breasts that have lost their firmness and shape over time. The surgery involves removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple and areola to a higher, more youthful position. This procedure does not significantly increase breast volume but can be combined with augmentation for a fuller look.

This procedure is ideal for women whose breasts have changed in size or shape due to aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or heredity. A breast lift can correct asymmetry and a downward-pointing nipple, restoring a more aesthetically pleasing breast contour and improving a woman�s self-confidence.

The Breast Lift is designed to:

Raise and reposition the breasts to a more elevated position.
Reduce excess sagging skin.
Improve breast shape and projection.
Correct breast asymmetry.
Restore a more youthful breast contour.
Enhance confidence and comfort in clothing.

How Breast Lift Surgery is Performed

The appropriate technique used for each patient will depend on the size and position of their areolas, their breast shape and size, the degree of sagging, and the skin quality as well as the amount of extra skin.
Breast Lift/Reduction Options: The incision patterns and techniques used in breast lift surgery: – Liposuction or Scarless – It uses minimal scarring to do the lift. – “Crescent” – The incision is made only along the upper half of the areola (crescent-shaped). – Benelli or “Donut” – The incision is made only around the perimeter of the areola. – Vertical or “Lollipop” – The incision is made around the areola, vertically down from the areola to the crease. – Inverted-T or “Anchor” – The incision is made around the areola, vertically down from the areola to the crease, and along the crease.
Anesthesia is administered, whether general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. Next, incisions are made around the areola (with a particular approach in mind). After incisions are made, the underlying breast tissue is reshaped and lifted to improve firmness and breast contour. The nipple and areola are also repositioned to a natural height. Excess breast skin can also be removed in cases where elasticity has been lost.
After this is done, the remaining skin is tightened, and incisions are placed. Sometimes, incision lines are concealed in the contours of the breasts; however, in some instances, this cannot be achieved. Some women want the smallest scar possible. However, a plastic surgeon will recommend an approach related to your anatomy. Do not diminish your result for an incision that may not work best with your body. Often, Sutures are layered deep within the breast tissue to support and create newly shaped and defined breasts. Skin adhesives, sutures, and surgical tape may all be used to close the skin tightly and securely.

Surgical Details

The breast lift is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. The incisions are typically made around the areola, vertically down from the areola, or horizontally in the breast crease, depending on the degree of lift needed. The surgeon then removes excess skin and tightens the remaining breast tissue to create a firmer, lifted shape. Patients can go home the same day.

Procedure Details

Length of surgery: 2-3 hours
Length of stay: Outpatient (home same day).
Anesthesia: General anesthesia.

Recovery Information

Bandages: Will be removed in a few days to a week.
Back to work: 7-10 days.
Stitches: Will be absorbable or removed in a follow-up appointment.

Procedure Risks

Common risks include changes in nipple sensation, scarring, and breast asymmetry. Swelling and bruising are normal and will subside over several weeks. Final results are typically visible after several months.

Question	Answer
How long is the recovery for a breast lift?	Initial recovery is about 1 to 2 weeks, with most swelling and bruising subsiding over the first few months. Strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least a month.
Will a breast lift increase my breast size?	No, a breast lift primarily focuses on lifting and reshaping the breasts. While they may appear fuller due to the improved shape, the procedure does not add volume. It can be combined with implants for increased size.
How long do the results last?	A breast lift provides long-lasting results, but breasts will continue to be affected by gravity, aging, and weight changes. Maintaining a stable weight will help preserve the results for a longer period.
Will I have visible scars?	Yes, scarring is an inevitable part of the procedure. The incision patterns are designed to be as inconspicuous as possible, often fading over time.
