Breast Lift

What are the advantages of having a Breast Lift?

     - An elevated more youthful breast contour

     - Nipple-areolar complexes of the desired size and the correct height

Who is a good candidate for a Breast Lift?

     - If you have sagging breasts due to past pregnancies, genetics, or aging

     - If the sagging is too great to be treated with an implant alone

     - If your nipple-areolar complexes (pigmented areas around nipples) are enlarged

What does a Breast Lift procedure involve?

Incisions are usually around the nipple-areolar complex and in the crease under the breast. The nipple-areolar complex is repositioned higher, the excess breast skin is removed, and the breast is reshaped in a pleasing contour and in a more normal position.

How long does a Breast Lift take?

It may take anywhere from 2-4 hours depending upon if additional procedures are combined.

How long does it take to recover from a Breast Lift?

A support bra is worn for 2-3 weeks and the sutures are completely removed within this time as well.

When can I expect to see results from my Breast Lift?

Immediately.

When can I go back to work/resume my normal activities after having a Breast Lift?

Light activities may be started in 7-10 working days.
