Overview

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure aimed at restoring a youthful shape and firmness to breasts affected by sagging due to factors like aging, pregnancy, or weight loss. It does not significantly alter breast size but focuses on improving contour and position.

Description

Breast lift surgery involves repositioning the nipple and areola to a higher location on the breast and removing excess skin to reshape the breast mound. The procedure aims to achieve a more youthful and lifted appearance without altering breast volume.

Consultation

During a consultation, your surgeon will assess your breast shape, skin elasticity, and overall health to determine if you are a suitable candidate for a breast lift. Realistic expectations and potential outcomes will be discussed, including whether combining a lift with implants is appropriate for your goals.

Procedure

Most breast lift procedures involve:
    Incisions are typically made around the areola, sometimes extending vertically down to the breast crease and horizontally along the crease. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining tissue is reshaped to enhance breast contour. The surgery lasts one to two hours and is often performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation.
The surgery usually lasts one to two hours and can be performed on an outpatient basis. Pain and discomfort are typically controlled with oral pain medication. Stitches are removed within seven to ten days, and most patients can return to work within a week. A support bra may be recommended for a few weeks after surgery. While most bruising resolves in one to two weeks, some swelling may persist for four to six weeks or longer, depending on the nature of the surgery and the patient.

After Surgery

    Post-surgery, patients may experience temporary discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with medication. Stitches are typically removed within seven to ten days. Recovery involves wearing a support bra for several weeks and avoiding strenuous activities. Most patients can return to work within a week, although full recovery may take several weeks to months.

Results

    Breast lift surgery provides a noticeable improvement in breast shape and firmness, enhancing self-confidence and satisfaction with body image. While scars are permanent, they generally fade significantly over time, becoming less noticeable.

Complications

    Although uncommon, risks include infection, changes in nipple sensation, and scarring. Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon and following post-operative instructions minimize these risks.

Additional Information

It's crucial to have realistic expectations and understand the limitations of breast lift surgery. Researching your surgeon's credentials, discussing costs, and making an informed decision are essential steps in ensuring a safe and satisfactory outcome.
