What Is a Breast Lift?
A breast lift, also known as a mastopexy, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin, tightens breast tissue, and repositions the nipples to create a firmer, more youthful breast shape. Unlike breast augmentation, which increases size with implants, a breast lift enhances the natural contours of your breasts.
Who Can Benefit from a Breast Lift?
You may be a good candidate for a breast lift if you experience drooping breasts due to aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations either naturally or from bariatric surgery or weight loss injections.
A breast lift can help restore youthful contours, improve symmetry, and enhance confidence, making it an excellent option for women seeking a discreet, natural, lifted look.
Breast Lift Procedure – What to Expect
Breast lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2-3 hours. During the procedure, our expert cosmetic surgeon will remove excess skin to lift and reshape the breasts, reposition the nipples to a more youthful, centered position and tighten and contour breast tissue for long-lasting results
Most patients experience mild swelling and discomfort for the first 1-2 weeks, with full recovery in 4-6 weeks. The results are long-lasting, and patients enjoy firmer, more youthful-looking breasts.
What kind of Scar will I have?
Mastopexy can be performed using three different incision techniques, each tailored to the patient’s needs.
1️⃣ Donut Incision: This technique involves making an incision around the nipple to lift the breast. It’s ideal for women seeking a subtle lift with minimal excess skin.
2️⃣ Lollipop Incision: This method includes an incision around the nipple and a vertical incision down to the breast crease. It works best for women needing a higher nipple lift with some skin tightening at the bottom of the breast.
3️⃣ Anchor Incision: This approach creates the most dramatic lift, making an incision around the nipple, vertically down the breast, and along the crease. It’s the best option for women with significant excess skin, especially those who have lost weight after bariatric surgery.
At Serene Life Med Spa, our expert cosmetic surgeon carefully selects the safest and most discreet incision for each patient. During your consultation, we’ll assess your needs and recommend the best technique to achieve your desired results while minimizing scarring.
