BREAST LIFT

WHO ARE GOOD CANDIDATES FOR BREAST LIFT?

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is ideal for individuals seeking to restore a youthful and uplifted appearance to their breasts. Good candidates for a breast lift are those experiencing sagging breasts due to aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, or genetics. This procedure is suitable for individuals whose nipples point downward or sit below the breast crease, or who desire improved breast shape and firmness without necessarily increasing their size. Candidates should be in good overall health, maintain a stable weight, and have realistic expectations for the outcome. Whether you want to rejuvenate your appearance or enhance your confidence, a breast lift can help achieve your aesthetic goals.

THE PROCEDURE

During a breast lift, our skilled plastic surgeon reshapes and lifts the breast tissue to create a more youthful contour. Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is tightened for firmer, perkier breasts. The nipple and areola are often repositioned to a higher, more natural location. Depending on the degree of lift needed, incisions may be made around the areola, vertically from the areola to the breast crease, or horizontally along the breast fold. Our surgeon customizes the procedure to your unique anatomy and desired results, ensuring beautifully natural and symmetrical outcomes.

EXPECTED RESULTS AND RECOVERY

After a breast lift, patients can expect higher, firmer, and more youthful-looking breasts, with improved symmetry and shape. While individual results vary, many patients experience a significant enhancement in their overall body proportions and confidence. During the recovery period, temporary swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are common and can be managed with prescribed medications and proper care. Patients are advised to wear a supportive surgical bra and avoid strenuous activities for several weeks to facilitate optimal healing. As swelling subsides and the breasts settle into their new shape, the final results become more apparent, revealing beautifully rejuvenated breasts that enhance your natural contours and boost your confidence.
